While I was looking for some cozy items I stumbled upon Canadian Jewelry designer/ Spiderwoman Arielle de Pinto.
Instead of yarn, she knits and crochets metals into beautiful organically shaped pieces. They add an edgy and elegant flair to any outfit.
Find her jewelry at OTTE NY.
One of my favorite trends of 2009 would have to be the reinvention of the peplum dress. What I consider once a very bad 80’s style, has now become a very fashionable and interesting piece to add some “pizazz” to your winter wardrobe.
