Leather Bracelets to Give Your Style a Western Flair

tomchu — Tue, 25 Jan 2011 06:50:28 +0000

Who never loves Enrique Iglesias? He’s probably the guy who can wear a rag and still look fashionable! Unfair as it may seem that some people look cool whatever style of dress they deck themselves out, but the truth is it’s all about proper mixing and styling. It’s about choosing the clothes that will look well on you including fashion jewelries one chooses to wear. Let’s check on leather bracelets Enrique loves.

Leather Bracelets

Leather bracelets are Enrique’s favorite. It probably has become his signature including button downing his tops and baseball caps. He truly duplicated all of his mom and dad’s (Isabel Preysler, Julio Iglesias) sexiness and overall appeal! He got both in fact!

Enrique Iglesias during the Emirates Melbourne Cup Day in Melbourne, Australia.

Now, getting back to our business, we’ve realized just what it means to become fashionable – finding the right accessories that fit you regardless of the price. But of course we want those that are affordable and confer a little bit of style and elegance so we’re here to pick two of the items that resembles Enrique’s choice. Let’s take a look at the following leather bracelets.

Double Round Flat Leather Bracelet in Black

Fashion leather bracelets just like leather accessories are the best ones you can have when wearing a more relaxed look. I couldn’t deny that Enrique is fond of wearing one even when the situation calls for a more formal attire. But who defines fashion well more than these fashion superstars?

I couldn’t agree more with his leather bracelets and I think that this Double Round Flat Leather Bracelet in Black is the best candidate or replacement for what he has above.

Reddish Brown Dual Cord Braided Leather Bracelet

We’ve also seen the braided leather bracelets he wore above and I wonder how much would it cost to find something similar and I was surprised to learn that it doesn’t take a celebrity richness to achieve the same style. Take this Reddish Brown Dual Cord Braided Leather Bracelet for example and you’ll be happy to know that looking like Enrique is not far from reality after all.

Military Clothing for Women: Pull It Off!

Fashionista — Wed, 02 Jun 2010 19:30:41 +0000

Military clothing has long been a staple of women’s fashion. Indeed, military inspired clothing have appeared year after year, season after season. Whereas last year’s rage was the military jacket and big shoulders, Spring 2010 calls for much muted and feminine military clothes.

And by feminine, it means that military clothing for this season are much less obvious.

The color of military clothing for spring is navy and army green. By all means, stay away from camouflage wear!!! Go for pieces that are made out of shearling. Cuts now are more feminine and soft military clothing is what you are looking for.

For the most part, you could never go wrong with a matching top and bottom ensemble, or a military jacket on leather pants. Military boots, preferably those with shearling embellishments, are also coming back.

There is actually two main looks for spring military wear: aviator and army. The aviator look is more structured, and nothing much can be done with it. It’s all about a brown aviator jacket with slim feminine cuts. If you want to have the freedom to wear anything that you want and still be in vogue, then go for the army look this spring.

The Dog Tag

Who can think about military wear and not think about dog tags? Well, the dog tag is still very much alive this year, as Giselle Bundchen shows:

LusterForever.com has just the right generic dog tag for you:

Engravable Sterling Silver Italian Dog Tag Pendant

But because spring 2010′s military fashion is all about becoming more feminine, then we suggest this:

Titanium and Diamond in 14k Accent Dog Tag Necklace

Or this:

Rhodium Plated Dog Tag Necklace

Leather

Military wear, especially the army look also calls for a lot of leather. Again, check out what Gisele Bundchen has on her wrist:

So how about these?

5 Strand Black Cord Italian Leather Bracelet

Black Braided Thin Cord Leather Bracelet Engravable Tag

Double Round Flat Leather Bracelet in Black

A Little Bit More Feminine

If you like something a bit more feminine, you can always copy model Lily Donaldson’s look:

And accessorize with gold rings, silver rings, bracelets, and dangling necklaces.

Timika — Fri, 24 Jul 2009 17:06:32 +0000

Nicole Richie is one of my favorite TV personalities, not to mention she’s also my fashion muse! So you can imagine how excited I was when I learned that she was designing her own line of jewelry that would include two of my personal faves – the sterling silver bracelet and some red leather bracelets too!

Nicole teamed up with Pascal Mouawad of Mouawad Jewelry to create the House of Harlow 1960 Collection, which debuted in the fall of 2008. The line was inspired by Nicole’s love of the 60’s and 70’s, and is targeted at fashion-forward teens to savvy 30-something’s. Affordably priced in the $30-$150 range, the House of Harlow 1960 Collection features a wild combo of nostalgic African tribal, gypsy, and bohemian-influenced accessories, including bracelets, rings, earrings and necklaces. Check out some of the bracelets (especially the red leather bracelets!) that I love!

House of Harlow 1960 Red Gladiator Cuff ($55.00) This red leather bracelet has a glamorous punk-inspired look. The 14-karat gold red leather cuff bracelet features funky grommet detailing.

House of Harlow 1960 14k Gold-Plated Bangle ($52.00) This retro-glam bangle bracelet, with it’s etched tribal design, would look super cute mixed in with a variety of sterling silver bangle bracelets.

The House of Harlow 1960 Red Aztec Bangle ($68.00) This red leather bracelet is one of my absolute faves! The shiny gold pyramids and arrows give it an almost 3-D appearance.

Only a genuine Murano glass bracelet will do!

Renee — Thu, 16 Jul 2009 10:15:31 +0000

Here’s a quick guessing game! They pack a ka-pow color explosion, each one is totally unique and they’ve been around since 1291. What are they? Italian Murano glass bracelets and jewelry, of course! If you haven’t yet discovered Murano glass jewelry, you’re about to go to glass jewelry heaven!

Here’s some background. In 1291 Venetian glassmakers moved to the Italian island of Murano. Their Murano glass jewelry creations and Murano glass beads were so ‘hold your breath’ beautiful that the glassmakers were almost nobility. Their technique was, and is, called ‘millefiori’, meaning ‘thousand flowers’, and once you see a real Murano glass jewelry piece, you’ll know why! Each glass bead is hand-made, and as a result, is totally individual.

Murano glass bead bracelets and jewelry is hot this season, and no wonder! There’s a Murano glass bracelet to match every outfit in your closet. Be careful though – make sure when you’re buying that you’re getting the real thing and not an imitation. How will you know? Consider these tips!

By far the safest and easiest method is to order from a reputable Murano glass bracelet and jewelry dealer. One of our favorites is www.lusterforever.com. Lusterforever has an incredible selection very fine Murano glass jewelry (guaranteed to be authentic Murano millefiore) at very affordable prices – and their reputation is impeccable. They also throw in free shipping, a customer satisfaction guarantee and various other ‘special’ offers depending on the size of your order and the time of year. Check ‘em out!

Know your prices! A Murano glass bracelet costs between $100 and $300 US – roughly. It’s possible to purchase a ‘Murano-style’ bracelet for less, so read the fine print to make sure you’re getting the real thing.

Check the Murano glass jewelry closely. Real Murano glass bracelets and jewelry are always totally individual because they’re hand-made. If you see two pieces that look the same, they’re probably not genuine Murano glass jewelry.

Visit www.lusterforever.com to shop for exquisite Murano glass bracelets and jewelry, plus leather bracelets and silver bracelets too!

Sneak a peek at affordable hot spring fashions for 2009

Renee — Sat, 04 Jul 2009 06:00:53 +0000

Somewhere in the midst of blistering heat, the odd snowfall and plenty of rain, the first day of spring 2009 has come and gone, and designers have rolled out this season’s hot spring fashions! This year’s spring styles have a little something for everyone, so whether you’re the one who never leaves home without your make-up on, or you’re happiest in a pair of sweats, here’s our sneak peek at the good, the bad and the eighties and what’s going on this spring!

You probably don’t remember when Mom dressed you in rompers or onesies. This year, one piece shorts and pants sets are back in style! From Australian khaki to elegant white, designers are pairing these simple one piece designs with exotic jewelry accessories like silver and leather bracelets to create a one- of-a-kind fashion statement for spring 2009.

Harem Pants. Hey, everything else about the eighties is coming back. Why not? This year’s take on M.C. Hammer’s stage apparel features trim, fitted designs that resemble jodhpurs or Hessian pants more closely than “I Dream of Jeannie”, offering lightweight comfort for those desert summers.

The skinny pant returns as well –new, improved and skinnier than ever! If you loved the tight jeans of the ‘80’s, you’re going to love this spring’s skinny pants. There’s no limit to just how tight they’ll go, and in pretty pastel colors like turquoise, pink and yellow, and sewn in light silks and satins, they’re certain to beat the heat this spring and summer! Don’t forget to add a white leather bracelet!

‘Mamma Mia’ may have been the inspiration for this season’s Mediterranean casual ruffled sundresses in chiffons and silks. Paired with trendy jeweled sandals and Grecian-inspired fashion bracelets, these beat-the-heat dresses are a hip fashion statement for all ages.

What’s this season’s biggest fashion blunder? Capri pants or cutoffs worn with heels! It’s so yesterday, ladies – so trade ‘em in for sandals or ballerina flats, then don on a hip leather bracelet and be stylin’ for spring 2009!

For a unique sterling silver bracelet, try Pia Wallén!

Silky — Thu, 14 May 2009 16:26:22 +0000

When a famous designer decides to make jewelry, the result speaks for itself – refined aesthetics meets functionality, innovation and simplicity! Swedish designer, Pia Wallén has 20 years of design experience, and her handmade, finely-crafted sterling silver bangle bracelets showcase her northern temperament and culture. Mixing and matching materials such as silver, felt, wood and plastic gives her pieces a sense of originality and humor that makes them as modern as jewelry can get!

Wallén’s Slitz Bracelet is a sterling silver bracelet that displays her most common combination of materials – sterling silver and felt. This silver bracelet has become so popular that is now considered a classic! The sterling silver bracelet lined with warm wool felt is available in two widths, 4 cm and 1.5 cm, and three felt colors – black, red and pink – combos to satisfy every taste!

Another version of Wallén’s silver bracelet was recently launched as a tribute to the bracelet’s 10th anniversary! The Slitz Bracelet – in gold (23 carat) features a stunning red felt lining. Other achievements by the Scandinavian priestess of design are the Ball Bangle bracelet and the Multi Charm Bangle bracelet, both combining sterling silver with plastic in an unorthodox and imaginative dance!
