Frock Off

Nothing gets me excited like a good cocktail ring. In the past couple days a few other bloggers have posted about some amazing pieces.

Trendinista posted about these gorgeous sea urchin rings from Star of the East’s Etsy shop. There are a ton of really unique pieces available. The one below is my favorite. I will be putting this on my list of things to buy.

Indie Fixx interviewed the owner and featured some pieces from The Carrotbox. This store specializes in non-metal rings. There are wooden, lucite, and glass rings. I am in love. No seriously I had to restrain myself from buying something right then and there. This kimono ring and Vail wooden ring are next on my list of things to get.

Fly wrote about these over-the-top but beautiful rings from M.C.L. Design. It doesn’t look like these are available online but they have a store listing.

Enjoy!

I really like this hood/turtleneck top that Ashlee’s wearing. I know it might look like her head is poking out of the mouth of a sandworm but its still cute. On another note, you know how some women look really weird without any makeup on? Unfortunately Pete Wentz is one of them.

I have so many good puns for this dress that Nicole Richie is wearing but I’ll keep them to myself. Even though this dress has planes on it, the cut of this dress is great (minus that weird part that’s sticking out, I hope that’s the wind). I would definetly do it in a basic color like black, navy, or white. The more that I look at this picture I would actually do it in almost any color or with a small print.

This is just a sample of items that I find really cute. I didn’t want to post them individually so here they are together.

A not so simply LBD.

I have two comments about the Country Music Awards last night.

I really hated this dress that Carrie Underwood wore to the Idol Gives Back event. I like the dress she wore last night much better. It’s a little Forever 21-ish but an upgrade.

On another note, isn’t Nicole Kidman pregnant?

The least you can do for the rest of us mere mortals is look pregnant. So beautiful.

I love tutorials on how to make cute stuff. Thanks Indie Fixx!

I found Roberta Oaks while looking around Indie Fixx. One of the great things about this collection is most of the dresses are made out of fabrics that are 97% sustainable. I just love summer dresses and I also love the idea of doing my little part to help the environment. Take a look at my top four picks. You can visit her online store here. Enjoy!

I know not ANOTHER Rihanna post. Tell her to stay home then. I love this skirt. Get something similar for cheap. See below. I’m too lazy and tired to track down the other items.
