Woudenberg Spring Summer 2013 – Paragon

I’m a sucker for anything Art Deco related so I was very interested in the Woudenberg Spring Summer 2013 jewellery collection. Toronto based, Emily Woudenberg is a self-taught fashion and jewellery designer with an educational background in Fine Arts and Graphic Design. The spring summer 2013 season marks her fourth collection under the her namesake label, Woudenberg. The collection titled “Paragon” is inspired by the most eclectic and luxurious qualities of the Art Deco movement. A paragon, defined as “an immaculate diamond”, symbolized the frivolity that followed World War I.

I also managed to score some jewelry in the process. MJ picked this necklace out for me before I even arrived. He knows my style so very well and even told Monique (MoonRox designer) that I would totally buy it. He was right. I was telling people that this necklace is right on trend for Spring 2009 and most gave me a blank look. If you’ve been to the One of a Kind Show, you’ll understand. I have always loved the MoonRox Charm bracelets. They are chunky, loud and colourful. I think they are the perfect addition to a LBD ensemble. MoonRox is in booth Y-4 and will be at the One of a Kind show till …

i want: Toy Me Scissor Cuff

Toy Me Scissor Cuff I noticed this cool little bracelet the other day, but it took an email from Danielle from Final Fashion for me to realize that this is a post worthy bracelet. I can totally understand why Danielle fell in love with it, I even thought of her when I saw it initially. I have no idea where and when it will be available. The Toy Me Scissor Cuff is from the company Toy Me. Check the stores page for details on retailers. via notcot.com image: toyme.it
