blog birthday no. 2 + a giveaway!

Wow. It's been two whole years since I started this blog. I can hardly believe it! I can only hope that you've enjoyed reading it as much as I've enjoyed sharing :)  

To celebrate, I am giving away this beautiful scarf necklace designed by my good friend, the talented, Melissa Clemente. It's one of my favourite pieces of hers this season. It's made of a very soft knitted yarn (100% cotton). It's the coziest kind of necklace to have on in the winter.

To qualify to win: check out her website, follow her Tumblr or on Twitter and leave a comment and your email address below. You'll have until Friday, February 4th at 6pm to enter. The winner will be chosen at random. Good luck! 

For those of you in Toronto this Saturday, February 5th: Come by the Drake Hotel between 9am and 4pm for The Guilty Pleasures Designer Sale and you'll be able to see and purchase Melissa Clemente's jewelry. I will be swinging by there, too. So come by and say hello :)   

 

epoch spring 2010 : melissa clemente designs






How gorgeous are these pieces from the (recently unveiled) epoch, spring 2010 collection by my friend, Melissa Clemente? Her work is a modern reinterpretation of Philippine indigenous and tribal costuming. She utilizes materials like wood, reeds, metals, fabrics in an innovative way that looks elegant, sexy and new. I love it.


Find her here, and check her Etsy shop too.
