I am obsessed with...House of Harlow 1960!



1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 

House of Harlow 1960 has some great pieces in their jewelry collection, and the above are my favourites. They're vintage-esque, a little tribal, unique, and beautifully exotic. Gotta love Nicole Richie. She's a great jewelry designer!

Gucci Onyx and Diamond Ring


From the Chiodo Cocktail collection. Originally $3,900, now $1,755.... Boy am I glad it got marked down. Now I can buy it! LOL. 

I saw this stunning beauty in one of my magazines...and just stumbled upon it again. Sigh. It so belongs on my finger.

Personal Purchase: New Earrings!



Picked these up at Walmart today. Found it in a jewellery clearance basket for $3! Good find I say. I want more dangly and chandelier earrings. I miss wearing them.

It also reminds me of a stalk of bananas. lol

Ok. So let's get right to it.

I always thought the big rocks celebs wear as engagement rings were really frivolous and too flashy (like Kim K's). I still do, especially with some rings that I've seen. Diamonds are practically revered in Hollywood. In my opinion, it means you can definitely provide, lavish, and shower your significant other with all that she wants (the cars, the mansion, the clothes, and jewelry)...and most importantly, U GOT DA MONIES. 


Nowadays, it's all about the rock and not really the ring or the symbolism behind it. A ring on your left ring finger signifies marriage and starting a journey together with your loved one forever (proof of the vows you swear). It doesn't have to have a diamond(s) or stone necessarily but the majority of women everywhere prefer it. I also think that Hollywood (and the media) sets a bad example as most men are influenced to buy a (big) diamond ring for their girlfriends. That kind of mindset shouldn't carry much weight. Unless you're marrying a gold digger/trophy wife lol (this reminds me of the movie Intolerable Cruelty haha).


HOWEVER, being the fancy, glamorous girly girl that I am, I secretly do love diamonds. Recently I've started to admire big rocks too (although it is unrealistic for those not belonging in upper class society) but I'd be fine with anything as long as it was chosen with care. Above all, it has to LOOK GOOD, so diamond or not, as long as I can rock it (no pun intended) then I could care less, LOL. I'm not sure I would prefer a set, but who knows. I have somewhat specific tastes when it comes to jewelry, and I DO love my jewelry! Just ask anyone lol!


I do want to explore some celeb engagement rings though. These are ones I do like:



Gisele Bundchen


Scarlett Johansson


Elizabeth Hurley


Angie Harmon (The engagement ring!)


Diana Patrick (I wanna see this up close and I'm not sure who this is.)


Khloe Kardashian (Looks good from afar lol.)

I now leave you with the best for last:



Hilary Duff 

To wrap this up, I wanted to share a picture I snapped earlier after I did my nails. Cuz I really do love jewelry.



My treasure box (Yes, I bag everything lol. I can't stand not having everything in one place.)

Thanks for tuning in.
