Ogle: Beyonce's Body Chain

Have you guys SEEN the Beyonce propaganda on HBO?

I LOVE IT.  I know there are some Beyonce haters out there, but I don't understand those people.  I mean, if there's someone in her industry that deserves the bucks, it's Beyonce.  She works hard.  Did you see her Superbowl show?!  She TURNED IT OUT.

Anyway, there were a few times during her documentary (if that's what you want to call it) where she was in a bikini on super posh vaca or showing off her preggers belly where you can see a very faint and delicate body chain on her.  I fell in love with it.  After some furious Google Searching, I had also remember that she rocked one on her very famous and recent GQ cover pic:

I love the way the chain drapes over the body.  It adds just a little something exrta and interesting.  Laying out and not swimming?  This is the perfect accessory.  

Why isn't this kind of thing more popular?  I've probably seen 10+ vacation/resort must have guides and haven't seen a single body chain on them!

If you have an extra $3000 lying around, feel free to pick up this beautiful piece, which is by Manon.  Oh!  And pick me up one, too, while you're at it.  Of course, there are cheaper options (here and here and here).

Obsess: Awesome Etsy Find: QooQoo Fashion

Sometimes thinking about Etsy makes me feel roverwhelmed.  BUT!  not too long ago (I don't remember how long ago at all) they updated their site and now it's way more user-friendly and it's a lot easier to find the things that I might like.  Similarly to Pinterest when you start an account, Etsy will ask that you go through a "taste test" so that they can suggest to you items that you might be interested.  I completed the "taste test" and one of the first items that appeared in my results was this:

Anonymous Bear Leggings.  Amazing.  That's all I could think.  I wanted more.  

I did some more snooping around on the interwebs and found that this brand, QooQoo Fashion, is by a graphic designer in Latvia- her name is Alyona Bauska and her stuff is SO cool.  I could totally see her stuff in boutiques in NY (though I never have).  I love the colors and the designs!  Here are some of my favorites that you can get now on Etsy:

Baroq Mini Sirt

Cosmo Bear Dress

Golden Cloud Leggings

Aquarium Dress- this one is amazing.  I want this to wear on my birthday.  I can't think of a more appropriate dress for me.

What do you think??  Are you obsessed?  I am.  Let me find this brand on Facebook and fan it.  Ooooo, just did it.

Own Being a Princess

I know that times have changed, but do girls still dream of being princesses?

I know I do!  Anything sparkly and is shaped like a tiara...give it to me! Well, let me show the list of things that get us all one step closer to being a princess:

Princess Hairpin from Etsy!  

Amazing finger bling by Charlotte Bjorlin D'Elia.  And it's on sale

Regal necklace from Fenton And it's ALSO on sale

What do princesses wear to bed?  Adorable slips by Elle MacPherson.  Duh.

Pair with any of these things with an obsession-worthy Rachel Gilbert Dress and some jeweled Miu Mius and you're all set.  Have I left anything out??

Now, go out and rule the world.  Preferably before Christmas so you can get back in time to open your presents!! :)  Happy Holidays!
