14 years ago
I have my eye on Tom Tom Jewelry’s Spring 2010 “Shape Shape It Up” collection. The geometric shapes, gems, and flashy metallic ornaments are named after some of my favorite songs to shake it to. I’m particularly a fan of the necklaces, shown above, but so we’re clear, the collection does include some bracelets and earrings as well, and with price tags hovering around $100, they’re great statement pieces that won’t cost you your accessories allowance for the month.

Hunter Boot Welly Warmers ($30) have been around for a few season. But they’ve recently come into style as fashionable lounge-wear stockings. Welly Warmers are available in a variety of colors, making this a great gift for even your most difficult friend, you know – the one who only wears pink (ew). And of course, if you already own Hunter Rain Boots purchasing a pair of Welly Warmers is a no brainer. (If you don’t own Hunter Rain Boots, you’re missing out)
Human Tooth Rings

Trying to find the perfect holiday gift for your loved ones? The Human Tooth Ring by Australian silversmith Polly van der Glas is the perfect idea! If your loved one doesn’t wear rings, you can always get Human Tooth Earrings or Human Tooth Necklaces instead. Say What? Your loved one doesn’t like teeth. That’s strange…and you’re in luck because Polly van der Glas also makes jewelry out of Human Hair; and who doesn’t love long flowing golden curls.
“All works are handmade in Melbourne, with sterling silver, human hair and human teeth. Human teeth are locally donated and sterilized, and human hair is either locally donated or sourced from India and China.”

One of the many reasons for their popularity is because they are designed to look current, and classic so they add a little flair to your outfit. You can even pair the gloves with cocktails dresses. If these gloves are out of your proce range, look for alternatives that are wrist length, longer lengths will not pair with non-outerwear as well.
