Defining one's personal style is an endless task.

However, to avoid looking too overly girly I like to counterbalance my outfits with edgier accessories, especially jewelry. I like the juxtaposition of a flowy blouse with a metal cuff. I think chiffon looks chic paired with leather. I am not afraid of a stud, or a spike, and I've never met a sparkly statement necklace I didn't like. So when I first laid eyes on these cuff bracelets by Lele Sadoughi, I was elated because they embody my personal style so innately; feminine with a bit of edge.

They are most certainly high on my wishlist! You can find them, along with other stunning pieces by Lele Sadoughi here.

Rodin Olio Lusso, the premiere luxury face oil contains only 11 ingredients, all of them naturally occurring oils. Ms. Rodin fashioned the recipe in coffee cups out of her bathroom, and her genius has resulted in a highly sought after cult beauty product. Along with the namesake product, she also produces a body oil, a hair oil created in partnership with celebrity hairstylist Bob Recine, a body cream, a lipgloss, a candle, a perfume, and a soon to be released facial cleansing powder. I have been lusting after this line for almost 2 years, and it's high time I just bite the bullet and order a bottle of my very own...
