nautical obsession

I'm buying dis ring tomorrow. So I can't tell you who made it because it's one-of-a-kind and my ego would cry (a lot) if it lost this cool thingy.

k.w. land

Remember this Karen Walker head piece? Seems like Beyonce  thinks that a crown is what a girl should wear too. Lol.

Fanned Leaf Studs

Just found lots and lots of fun stuff at Topshop. Their fall collection of faux bijiou is quite interesting .... all pieces probably look better on photo than irl.

 Still faux can be fun.

 More to come.

Gah.

(new theme) my friend's jewellery box #1

I have always been jealous of this necklace. 

Funny thing, it was a gift from my mama and myself.. 

We have a new theme here at GD!

I like to think of myself as a social person. heh.. A person with friends..

And since I dont want the blog to focus around my persona, what better way to move focus from myself than exploiting my friends? :) 

...

First up is the lovely E. 

Another gift from my mama and I.. 

(More to come from this designer in september!)

Made by 14year old me as a birthday present (?)

Gift from me and my mama.. 

Dont remember the designer. 

Sad. Great design.

 Silver and gold.

YSL ring a pretty gift from the BF... 

-.-

thirty six ten..

I can't do anything but love this.

 Four months ago I came across a blog called thirty six ten, the woman behind it is the designer of all these gorgeous creations. Folkloric love but still very modern..  

Love it. 

No.

 More like adore it... oww..

dream earrings

I have wished for these ... for a very long time.. over 6 years now. 

Gah.

chaplet. wreath. garland. whatever

As promised my flower wreaths! Well two of them at least. I like wearing them in the summer instead of necklaces.. I strongly dislike wearing necklaces when its hot out... wehh. So a flower wreath is the perfect supplement.

the power of flower

disc earrings

For some years one of my cousins worked for my father, during his time in my fathers studio he designed a few pieces, amongst them these earrings. I wore them everyday almost for a year... So simple yet beautiful. To me this design is not very greek..it has more of a nordic  touch.. Tune in tomorrow, to hear more about the difference between nordic and mediterranean designs..

new in #1.. no inspiration..

I bought these Danielle Scutt (for Topshop) earrings a while back. I was quite disappointed actually.. still they're pretty cool. If you're going for faux bijou, go for statement pieces. 

king lily

My friend L wears this ring often...

 I adore it for its gothic flirtation.
