Watches.

I never really notice them on a person because they are so common, almost everyone wears one, right? There are the ones with links, the leather cuff ones, calculator ones, bracelet ones, etc. Well it seems that there has been a fluorescent/ rainbow trend that is trickling down from the Ready-To-Wear shows into accessories, more specifically watches.



These watches are like a flashback to childhood with the silicone straps and neon colors, they are like the jelly sandals that everyone use to wear.

Were you into those jelly sandals?
If yes, would you get a jelly watch to reminisce about those jelly sandal days?
If no, what don’t you like about them?

Thanks again for reading and have a great weekend!

A New Week (#3 to be exact)

And so it begins, this is a new week and do I have something special for you. With regards to my fashion sense I love color, especially bright neon colors and today I have found some unique shoes from designer Lucilla Lotti. The Cool Hunter gives a better premise for the designer then I do so...

Here is the low down on Lucilla Lotti from The Cool Hunter

Is creativity a genetic likelihood? Look at Paul and Stella McCartney, Ronald & Sophie Dahl, Rosa and Margherita Missoni. In Lucila Lotti’s case, genetics definitely played a part in her creative upbringing. Her father, Jorge Lotti began his tailoring shop in Buenos Aires in 1920 and grew the business to become a major presence in the South American garment industry until the 90’s, when it closed. Lucila, the youngest of the family grew up amongst this love of detail, fine fabrics and quality craftsmanship. Lucila began her own business focusing on shoes made from patent leather, suede, satin and vinyl in homage to her mother who always wore heels and lipstick when leaving the home. Opening her own boutique in the creative, bohemian hub of Palermo in Buenos Aires, Lucila is amongst fine company. Given this sense of history and creative disposition, it is no surprise that Lucila’s debut collection came to the attention of Patricia Field and Sex & The City. Her bright, bold shapes and ability to mix colour and silhouette in a brave, fashionable style will no doubt continue to inspire more international press.

Personally I love these shoes, they scream individuality and they would make any outfit just pop!

What do you think? Are they too bright, making them hard to match or do you love them?

Thanks for stopping by and have a great week!

It is now my second post and I am still crazy about Kidrobot, so this Friday I will be bringing you the Kozik mustache necklace from the Kidrobot by Taraina Tarantino line. I like to think of this as a crazy cool staple in an accessory wardrobe, it is funny and cute but not overly flashy like some other things I have and so without further ado the mustache necklace:





I really like it…what do you guys think?

Thanks again for reading and have a great weekend.

Hello and welcome to my blog…

I’m Dino and I love accessories like purses, jewelry, shoes, and hats. Adding some accessories to an outfit is like putting frosting on a cupcake making it cuter and sweeter, that’s how I like to think of it. At the moment my favorite jewelry collaboration would have to be Kidrobot by Tarina Tarantino, together they have done earrings, necklaces, necklace pendants and wallet chains.

Here are the earrings:














The great thing about the Kozik Labbits are that when you order them you won’t know which two you are going to get which makes the surprise even sweeter.

What do you think of them? Are you a kidrobot person or is it too bizarre for you?

Thanks for reading and have a great weekend.
