Fleur Rouge

Frenchy of the blog, Le Chateau Des Fleurs offers a simple tutorial for dressing up a bag and shoes with a few simple materials. Love her photo-heavy tutorial, and her classy red lips she sports in her header! Now, if only I had a gala to attend!

What better place to kick-off "This Week in Color" than the top of the rainbow? This week's feature color is RED.

I'm loving this necklace titled, "Red Clover Fairy." Dorothea Joy Alter's handcrafted jewelry can be found online at "A Little Something Different." She draws her inspiration from nature and describes her one of a kind peices as "deeply feminine with a definite organic feel."

Polymer clay handmade pendant with 18kt gold paint.
Beautiful freshwater pearls and swarvorski crystals!
14kt gold filled toggle clasp.

With the whimsical fairy pendant and the fresh pearl accent, this peice definitely says feminine and flirty and the brilliant red beads add just enough girl-power. Everyone needs a good "statement necklace," and if you're going to make a statement, make it unique! A Little Something Different has a great mix of the beautifully simple and the wildly dramatic. Check it out.
