We’re jonesing for…

29 Feb

… a beautiful watch, like this one from Fossil’s Stella collection. It has sort of that boyfriend style, but is definitely still feminine. So lovely!

And the award for Best Dressed goes to…

27 Feb

Well, it’s a matter of opinion. One publication declares someone Best Dressed while another deems them Worst Dressed.  We’re not going to pick any Worst Dressed because, let’s face it, we’ve all made some poor fashion choices, and we don’t need to get involved with any bad fashion karma.  Here are some of our favorites from the night…

Octavia Spencer- Talk about a gorgeous hourglass figure! This dress is hugging her in all the right places.

 Penelope Cruz- She’s rocking the princess look without it being over the top.

 Emma Stone- The bow at the neck adds a touch of whimsy.

 Gwyneth Paltrow- A little simplicity can go a long way.

Is pink the new red?

We all know the classic red lip look.  Gorgeous, glamorous, and downright sexy.  But what about pink lips?  Thoughts? A dash of pink never hurt anyone.

P.S. The girl on the right is Sydney from The Daybook.  I’ve never met her, but I’m pretty sure we would be great friends.

What a spectacle!

For all you glasses-wearers out there: Good News!  Now you don’t have to be committed to the same frames day after day!  With companies like BonLook and Warby Parker, you can afford to change your eyewear to fit your style, no matter how often it may change!  Who knew being a four-eyes could be so cool?

Since I’ve only seen one of the films nominated for Best Picture, fill me in… Who are you rooting for?

Essentjewels loves to use natural resources to accent an outfit and we love doing the same in our homes!  These wood and wicker accents are so earthy chic.
