Fab Find Friday: Turquoise Accents

The weather in LA has been dreary and stormy this week and it has me more ready for spring than ever! With weather like this, I am dreaming of wearing all of the romantic, ethereal white fashions that are popping up in every magazine’s March and April issues. One trend that stays strong from year to year every spring is white styled with turquoise. There is something very rich yet effortless that makes it work for any and every age, body type and style.

1928’s Seabreeze collection has that tropical meets tribal style and was designed in a color palette of light aqua blue and iridescent white opal. Once I get my California tan back, I think these pieces will look even more chic than they already do. What I love about this collection is that it offers a spectrum of shades of white and turquoise/aqua blue to work with. Think you’d rock a look like this below?

With such an attention grabbing dress, she was smart to style it with only a pop of turquoise on her wrist. The best thing about her look is that it could have been from anytime over the past three years and you would never know it- the springtime trend that never goes out of style- how fab is that!?

Fab Find Friday: Celebrity Boho Style for Less!

If you’re a fan of 1928.com, you’ve seen that we just LOVE bracelets that you can mix and match and stack as high as you’d like. Our designers have paid close attention to how bracelets have been trending and how stars wear not one, not two, but three or more bracelets on the same wrist. It’s a simple concept and a look that is easy to achieve. Remember tying multiple friendship bracelets on your wrist as a child? Or what about pairing necklaces that fall at different lengths to create an overall statement look? It’s just the same with bracelets!

Personally, I am a bracelet fanatic. If I don’t have at least three on my left wrist, I feel as thought I left the house without something and it bothers me all day. I find bracelets more comfortable to wear than other jewelry pieces and easy to match with anything- actually I think it’s the fact that they don’t have to match with the rest of your outfit at all and it still goes! I love the look of a watch with thin wrap bracelets surrounding it. It makes your everyday watch a little less boring. And now that the weather is warming and our sleeves are getting shorter, it is the perfect accessory to throw on any time, any day.

bangle01Fab Find Friday: Celebrity Boho Style for Less!With the 70’s inspired look coming back, and boho being bigger than ever, I think its time to really experiment with your bracelets and bangles like the celebs do. From young to old, women are rocking the stacked bracelet look in their own way. Jennifer Anniston, Miley Cyrus, Drew Barrymore and others are decorating their wrists and then some with a unique array of bangles and bracelets. The best part is, no one will have the same combo as you! And you can get as creative as you want when it comes to mixing and matching.

1928 JUST posted six brand new bracelet sets that will help you accomplish this look. Our Spring Bracelet collection is light and airy and my favorite part about these bracelets is that they may look like bangles, but they actually stretch, making them easy to slip on and off. Then there’s our Bollywood Bangles that are just so hot!!!! 1928 employees are already wearing them around the office and we can picture someone like Vanessa Hudgens rocking these unique bracelets. It gives you pieces to play with- maybe just wear two out of the six, or pair them with bracelets you already have! How fab is that?

Fab Find Friday: Leona Lewis Loves 1928!

Miss Leona Lewis has changed up her style at multiple red carpet events this past week and we love the fun, whimsical approach she is taking with her fashion choices. In fact, she not only has been standing out more, but she has designed these two unique dresses herself! First we saw her in a black high-waist skirt with a nude mesh top decorated with over-sized red lips at the LA premiere of Justin Bieber’s movie Never Say Never. And just the following night, the British pop-sensation debuted a very similar self-designed outfit at the Essence Black Women in Music event in Hollywood. This outfit consisted of a purple skirt and bright yellow bow to replace where the lips were the night before. What do you think of her designs?

While these may be a bit wacky and clearly are not for every day wear, we like the creativity and edge that they bring. But Leona is also a fan of classic, vintage inspired style as well, especially 1928 Jewelry! Yes, that’s right. Leona Lewis owns our 2028 Brass Mother of Pearl Pendant Necklace. Check her out! Leona is perfectly on trend with her Honeysuckle pink top, heavy 70’s inspired bands, and of course that stunning 1928 tribal inspired statement necklace. We think she looks divine!

37th People’s Choice Awards

Did any of you catch the 37th People’s Choice Awards yesterday night? Queen Latifah was the host for the 5th consecutive year wearing a flashy pink frock from Edition by Georges Chakra while Adam Sandler had on a mysterious bruised-up black eye (he won for favorite comedic star). Latifah’s dress was gorgeous and unique with the appearance of a shorter dress peeping out from behind a long gown. I couldn’t help but notice  she was wearing a color close to 2011′s color of the year–honeysuckle pink! A few other stars had their strong fashion moments including Selena Gomez, who was wearing a patterned Irina Shabayeva dress, pretty Isharya layered hoop earrings (looks so much like our multi hoop earrings) and strappy Christian Louboutin heels. I also adored Leighton Meester’s fun boho eclectic style. She was in a Vionnet dress wearing Cathy Waterman coral-color earrings and Brian Atwood shoes.

Fab Find Friday Necklace: Just in Time for Ariel Winter (Modern Family)

Cast of Modern Family modern family 225x300Fab Find Friday Necklace: Just in Time for Ariel Winter (Modern Family)

If you’re a fan of Modern Family like I am, you know who Ariel Winter is. She plays the brainy middle daughter, Alex, and is extremely talented in the role. In addition to acting, Winter is also a singer and just released two singles back in February and April called “Fallen” and “Banished.” (I bet you didn’t know that icon winkFab Find Friday Necklace: Just in Time for Ariel Winter (Modern Family) )

Ariel was caught wearing our beautiful Pink Champagne Chandelier Necklace, which gave me a sense that she has good taste in her jewelry selections. The necklace is very vintage-looking and classic, taking style cues from the Victorian era and the Art Deco period when faux pearls were massively popular.  And by the way, this necklace will only set you back $35!
