Decor

Beautiful Cosy Decor
Image found here


I absolutely love this unique room. Everything in it makes it so cosy and comfortable. The vintage feel makes it seem very natural, like you can just kick your shoes off after a long day and relax.




Modern Decor - Not my style


Image found here

Im not a fan of modern decor and architecture. To me it makes the space feel kind of cold. Not very much like home. Im not saying its a pain to look at but home for me should be a sanctuary where you shouldn't be afraid to mess up the duvets or spill wine on the floor. This doesn't cut it for me.


Jewellery - like & dislike

Like


Honeycomb ring with a cute little bee.

This ring is similar to a knuckle buster only it isn't one. It is prettier and more petite and the design is adorable.



Dislike

Knuckle buster

I really do not like this type of knuckle buster rings, its just too macho for me. Also this specific design on top, the grass makes it look too weird to wear.

Dresses

Bohemian dress



Personally i think that there is nothing better than a loose/flowy bohemian style dress. It is so gorgous! The colours and the unusual cut makes it so pretty. I love this.

The meat dress


I really hated this meat dress. I think that it is the most ridiculous thing to wear considering that there are people starving out there. Everytime she wears something that makes people stare it just pushes her image further down the drain. She is way too over the top. She is a beautiful woman and with the right stylist she would look amazing.

Earrings

Dreamcatcher Earrings (Like)


Iv'e always loved dreamcatchers since i was little. The fact that they catch your bad dreams made them even more appealing to me. Seeing them transformed into a wearrable piece makes me love it even more.

Skull earrings (Dislike)


Skull earrings to me are not very bad looking, I just don't like them because they represent death. It is a little bit scary to wear them in your eyes (in my opinion).

Bags

This little clutch bag is the prettiest ever! The stones, the colour and the overall look - very unique! It is a beautifully crafted piece of art. I would love to own one!

I like faux fur coats but this handbag is taking it too far. It almost looks like a dead animal. How scary would you look walking down the street with a "dead animal". Major dislike from my side.

Chunky Jewellery

Now here we have the same concept as below (using found objects) but i am inlove with this piece! The colours are beautiful (specially the turquoise) and the layout is amazing! I adore out of the ordinary pieces like this one.

This chunky neck piece actually hurts my eyes. It is hideous! I love creativity but this is just a piece of junk made out of junk. The colours are unnatractive & it looks like a weapon of mass destruction.

The gorgeous & The not-so-gorgeous

Beautiful nail art




I love this nail art! It's amazing & it (in a way) defines you & makes you stand out. It must take some time doing it but the results are amazing! I'd Love some!

Scary Drawing...



This to me is just very disturbing, I can't tell what the artist is trying to portray because there is a heart in the picture, but it seems dark & the hands look hard & old. I can see myself walking through the woods at night and this tree with arms grabs me. A definate dislike from my side.

Jewellery pieces - The good & the bad


Jewellery that i adore!

I love charms, i think that it says a lot about who you are. I love how you can wear them in so many ways and match them up any way you like. The possiblities are endless. (**,)

Not very pretty...


The ugly Betty necklace... Ok so i Love pearls but this just makes pearls look bad. I just think it's so ugly like it could destroy any outfit.

Other Designs - shoes & furniture

I am crazy about this chest of tiny drawers. It is a bit old so has a scuffed finish which looks stunning. This is a vintage piece and I adore vintage. One of my favourite colours is turquoise and I love the feel that this item piece brings to the room.

The mirror and the old-ish looking wall matches perfectly with this item.

Hidious shoes!!! This is just wrong on so many levels. What human being would want to wear this??? I wish i knew what the designer was thinking when he/she put this together. The only fuction that i can think of for these really ugly heels is a costume prop for The chronicles of narnia or some fantasy film.

Jewellery Designs

I adore these pendants! They are so stunning, im not entirely sure but i think that theyr'e crystals. I love the design, the rough unfinished look, and the colours are amazing. The metal wrapped around the pendant gives it a really unique finish. It is definately something that i would wear with pride.

This is a pair of "arm" earrings that i really dislike. I just see it as a really weird thing to wear on your ears considering that your arms are usually on the side of your body. Also it isn't very well put together. It almost looks as though it was put together with a bit of glue.

Artist Statement

I am an aspiring jewellery designer, currently doing my first year of jewellery design.
I draw my inspiration from vintage things, eg. classical cars, hairstyles and movies.
I also really like baroque frames with lots of detail, ancient Egypt and Greek fashion and jewellery.
I Love the ocean as well, it is the one place that remains perfect & untouched. There's so much mystery & beauty inside the sea & it definately inspires me.
My goal - For my jewellery to be a unique reflection of me.
