    Hot In The Hive: Alexis Bittar Skinny Lucite Bangle!

    We all know what lucite is, although many of us don't yet own anything made from this material. Lucite is an acrylic, fiber-glass, plastic type that gained popularity through furniture designers trying to capture a more modern, space-age feel in their home designs. Poor lucite has always been seen as the cheap and easy cousin to other more sophisticated substances and causes most of us to immediately picture acrylic nails and the generously clunky and high heels of exotic dancers. However, lucite is actually a material that can be manipulated easily into something beautiful and unique. Jewelry designer Alexis Bittar puts a new spin on this misunderstood material and takes it from visions of trashy to visions of classy. His lucite bangles come in a range of translucent colors and varying widths, simple and chic or embellished with gorgeous glittering accents, and can all be seen at the Alexis Bittar website!


    Price: $225

    A gift certificate is a puzzling thing, especially when it's handed to you. Do you use it on something cheaper so you save money, or do you apply it to a larger purchase? Do you hang on to it until you find the perfect thing because it's "free" spending money, or do you spend it right away? So many questions! Last week, we introduced you to Creative Contrast, an online fashion retailer with a serious selection of accessories from Sir Alistair Rai, Tolani, Alexis Bittar, Kenneth Jay Lane, and many more. All you had to do to win a $100 gift certificate was tell us which item sold on the site was your favorite! Read on to find out if you won!

    I'll be the first to admit that my wardrobe (sadly) does not exactly reflect the amount of time I spend on high-end and contemporary shopping sites. Sure, there's the occasional splurge, and I can thank careful/obsessive eBay browsing for my Marc by Marc collection, and okay, there was sort of a time where you could say I lived at Loehmann's (the security guy totally recognizes me now), but day to day, I'm pretty casual. But when simply casual doesn't cut it, there's Creative Contrast. Their e-store contains a stunning collection of clothes, accessories, jewelry, and home decor by Sir Alistair Rai, Tolani, Alexis Bittar, Kenneth Jay Lane, and many more. Add in an amazing sale section, no sales tax, and free shipping on all orders and you have one must-visit shopping site! We're giving away a $100 Creative Contrast gift certificate to one lucky Hiver- read on to find out how you can enter!

    Style Trend: Having a Field Day With Floral Prints

    From large tropical patterns to tiny calico prints, florals seem to blooming in stores everywhere, and I love it! Summer is the perfect time to experiment with colors and patterns. From high end to bargain basement, there's a floral print for everyone and every occasion. Invited to a pool party? Try a bold tropical themed bikini or tunic. Bridal or baby shower? A prim and proper floral dress works wonders. A day perusing the art galleries? Fit right in with a watercolor print blouse. For the adventurous and daring, try mixing and matching floral prints together or with other patterns just like the designers did on the Spring/Summer runways. Just keep the inspiration and color palate similar while varying the scale of the patterns. Get some more inspiration from my slideshow!
