How I Wear MY PEACE of jewelry - HOT!

It's been pretty hot in Southern California.
Hot and humid. Even though it's hot, you can't hide inside.
Errands must be done, which involves moving my buns from point A to B.
Over the weekend, I went to Alpine Village in Torrance.
Alpine Village is little piece of Germany transplanted into sunny Southern California.
There's a grocery store featuring German meats and products.
There's a restaurant featuring German food.
And of course the beer.
Alpine Village has this huge OKTOBERFEST every year.
This year its September 7 - October 27, 2012.



I did not go there for anything German.
There is also a swap meet at the location.
I was looking for a tool on the cheap.


Even though Alpine Village has nothing to do with how
I Wear MY PEACE of jewelry,
I thought you'd like to hear about it.
 
As for how I dress when it's HOT.
I recommend LIGHT, AIRY and LOOSE


Linen shorts  - old
cotton tank - Sear's
sandals - DSW
purse - gift
necklace - MY PEACE of jewelry Charm Necklaces
cuff - MY PEACE of jewelry Reminder Cuffs


Started the day out looking "cool" but by afternoon,
too hot!
Be warned the following images,
I was burning up!


I was wearing one of my African Pendant necklaces,
which I like to layer with other necklaces,
but can also be worn alone,
which is best in this heat
I have several different African Brass Pendants on Etsy

West African Round Brass Pendant
 
Plus, I never leave home without one of my REMINDER-how-to-live-CUFFs

    I went to visit your Etsy shop and I love it! Your pieces are so unique and I'm all for pieces that are hand-crafted. Thank you for your comment on my blog earlier. I love your outfit in this picture, especially for that very casual/relax look, but complimented with that beautiful necklace and cuff! I'm also in love with your bag. The pattern is really beautiful and love all those warm color. Perfect for this outfit!

      Thanks so much, Jenny about viewing my Etsy site and becoming "following" my blog. :) I will definitely be following yours. Your look in the orange romper inspired me so much that I wore a jumpsuit yesterday. I will be posting tomorrow. Don't hesitate to tell me what you think.

UPDATE a/o May 2012 Because I love to work with my hands and create a variety of things. I thought I could make my own mannequins.  I used the paper mache' technique to make my mine. See below for step by step on how to make your own WO-MANNEQUIN Materials : Grocery bags, wallpaper paste and tape.

How to Choose the Right Earrings for your Face Shape

Image
I love to make jewelry; earrings included. But I have to admit not every style is right for every Woman. Depending on your face shape some earrings types are better than others. The types of earrings you wear should depend on your FACE shape. The four basic shapes are highlighted below. SQUARE SHAPE What is a square-shaped face? - sides of your face will be straight - face will be nearly as wide as it is long - your jawline will be defined, with only a minimum curve                                                                        - strong jawline                                                                      Best EARRINGS for square-shaped face - earrings with rounded designs - elongated earrings, especially under the chin line - dangling earrings - hoop earrings These styles are considered excellent because they add a softness to the facial angles *avoid very wide, bulky, square earrings Famous square-shaped  face celebrities
