So I really love rose gold jewelry. And not only since it became “trendy” this time around last year but way back when I was a child and used to dig around in my Mom’s jewelry box where she used to have plenty of rings and necklaces in this beautiful gold shade. Hence every time I spot something rose gold it instantly brings back all those childhood memories and I can’t help but be totally biased.

So naturally I was super smitten with this beautifully crafted feather bracelet by LeiVanKash. The bracelet is made in bronze and plated in 22k rose gold. It curves around the wrist perfectly and and the cord is adjustable, too. Yes, I admit it costs more than what I would usually be willing to spend on jewelry, but I simply can’t help it. Also, did I mention there’s only a small quantity of these available?! Like 3 to be exact. I love that it’s not the generic, cheapy stuff you get at all those fast fashion chain stores like H&M and Forever 21. Not that I wouldn’t shop there ocassionally, but I always end up questioning myself why I keep buying that stuff when it falls apart after a couple of wears.

My Shopbop Wish List for August 2011

I can’t believe I haven’t posted a Shopbop wish list for the last 2 months. Time flies! We’re in the last stage of summer and most of us are already looking for fall to cool down a bit. With that in mind I have compiled a wish list with some gorgeous investment pieces which would also double as great transitional pieces. Let me know what you think.

Oh how I loved Olivia Wilde‘s dramatic black floral lace gown by Dolce & Gabbana which she recently wore to the premiere of Cowboys & Aliens. I didn’t think I’d be able to compose a look 4 less of her look, but then I stumbled upon this gorgeous gown by MANGO and though it’d be a great alternative to Olivia’s dress. Shhh, don’t tell anyone, but I think I even prefer the MANGO dress which unfortunately seems not to be available in the US e-shop yet though I can confirm that you can buy it at the UK & European e-shops.

Kim Kardashian likes to stand out. And if she does so by flaunting fabulous outfits like the one shown below, well, I don’t mind. How gorgeous is her lemon Birkin bag anyway? And the pink cardigan? Love the combo and the fact that she kept everything pretty basic with a white tee, jeans and neutral shoes. Check out our budget version of Kim’s look below and let us know what you think.

When I wrote about Selena Gomez wearing an ASOS dress to the GRAMMY Nominations Concert back in December many of you seem to have found interest in Selena’s dress which is now long gone & totally sold out. And since I still get a lot of requests and traffic on this specific Selena look I decided to recreate her head-to-toe look on a budget look basis. I found a great and budget-friendly dress alternative coming from New Look, a UK fast fashion chain. They have very decent worldwode shipping fees (shipping to the US comes in at £7.50 which equals ~$12), so I decided to include it. And I also came across these fab Zanotti chiffon bow look-a-likes, but you have to be fast to snag a pair at LuLu*s because sizes keep selling out there.
