World Market was put on this earth to make your house look like some sort of African hunting lodge, Indian summer house, or Morroccan souk hideaway; filled with beautiful lanterns, rich colors, and so much patchouli incense. And all of this can be accomplished without even leaving the country. Yes, it may be cheating in terms of kitschy souvenir shopping, but this place has some cool stuff for your home. Surprisingly,it also has a lot of cool stuff for your body; jewelry that-is. I never knew how much cool jewelry this place had until I visited there this weekend. There were at least five displays full of beautiful earrings, necklaces and bracelets in all colors and that brushed gold I love so much. If you don't have a World Market near you, their wares are available for purchase on their website.

Dolce & Gabbana Fall/Winter 2013
I'm really digging the Sicilian grandma look that Dolce & Gabbana have come out with for Fall/Winter. Everything is so incredibly detailed and beautiful. I want that effing cape and coat! They couldn't have picked anyone better than Monica Bellucci to be the face of this campaign; she's a super hot, fabulous Italian lady who I'm sure doesn't shy away from carbs! Whenever I see their adverts in magazines it just makes me happy and I immediately start craving lasagna. I usually go for pretty simple outfits without a lot of embellishments, but every once in a while I see a crazy beautiful collection like this and I want to drape myself in gold embroidery, black lace, and flowered headbands. A big thumbs up to Dolce & Gabbana for this collection, I'll be expecting that cape under my Christmas tree! Until next time, arrivederci!

Wedding Outfit #2: What To Wear If You Want to Look Like a Bitch
Wedding Outfit #2 by elbonner featuring yves saint laurent
Sometimes you just want to look better than everyone else. It's a fact of nature. While everyone else bought their dresses at TJ Maxx a week ago, you want to walk in looking like you eat those $1000 ice cream sundaes on a daily basis after going to Pilates with your other bitch friends. Being a bitch is not always a bad thing; you know what you want, you're ambitious, your shoes are going to hurt when you kick that valet driver for farting your car upon pick-up, it makes people fear and envy you. In an outfit like this you can transform yourself from a shy pushover to top dog in a matter of minutes. Top this look off with some big, but not too big, well coiffed hair and a fancy rare perfume and who knows, some eccentric millionaire might buy you an Audi!

Treasures
Until now, I have never really been that into jewelry. I still don't like really gaudy pieces and big jewels, I like simple things that will look good for years to come.I also like things that look like someone just pulled it out of the ground and slapped it on a ring. I essence I like lots of natural pieces clothing and jewelry-wise. I think it just looks more down-to-earth and not so show-offish. I made a collection of a few pieces I've found around the internets that show what sort of stuff I'm into and these pieces go from fall to winters and back to spring and summer. I think it's important to have a wardrobe that can transition easily from season to season so you're getting your moneys worth out of your stuff! This set features lots gold, leather, and jewel tones that just look exotic and lush and I want all of them. Come on lottery I've got shopping to do!
