    Skin is In! Charming Snakeskin Accessories To Slither Into ...

    Snakeskin prints have slithered their way into stores! At the spring runway shows, they were on everything-- dresses, skirts, hats, bags, shoes, belts... and dyed in every color! It's all about adding texture to your look with skins. Look for color-rich reptile accessories; they're a great way to dabble in the trend without looking like a walking (well, slithering) reptile. Real snakeskin and python can be quite expensive, but there are plenty of faux embossed options that will keep you from having buyer's remorse when this trend slithers away. Try a sexy snakeskin sandal with a basic ensemble to pump up a look. A bright colored python belt works perfectly to cinch this season's slouchy boyfriend jeans and khakis. Don't be afraid to mix and match your snakeskin- just keep one neutral and the other colorful for a coordinating but not overly calculated look. Check out the slideshow to see some ssssssuper sssnake accessories that are sure to charm you!

    Hot In The Hive: Jeweled Animal Rings

    I'm the kind of person who loves to find and wear distinctive accessories for any occasion. Nothing beats dressing up a plain blazer with a few distinctive pins I borrowed from my grandmother's bureau or stacking a bunch of bracelets together on one arm. And when it comes to rings, the gaudier the better! Cocktail rings aren't reserved just for cocktail hour anymore, so why not wear the biggest, flashiest one you can find? One thing to keep in mind though: to avoid looking like an aging matriarch from a soap opera, I suggest sticking to just one ring. That means you should make it count, embrace the animal kingdom and slip on a jeweled animal ring. Whether it's the octopus, parrot, or elephant, it'll be sure to spark up some interesting conversation! Now the biggest problem is choosing your favorite!


    Price: $178

    Leapin' Leopards! Legal Animal Prints for Vintage Fashionistas

    image
    Mary Kincaid on Jan 9, 2009 5:21 AM PST
    This past December marked the 35th anniversary of the Endangered Species Act, which makes it illegal to sell or purchase items made from endangered species. In some states, like California, this law is even extended to include vintage pieces. So what's a fashionista to do? First, get educated about the items on the list. It includes most cat furs like leopard, tiger and cheetah but the list is long with frequent additions. And since federal agents regularly peruse eBay, websites, and flea markets for violators--both sellers AND buyers--it pays to be informed. Second, get your animal print fix by purchasing something perfectly legal like one of the fab vintage finds in this week's collection. Just click the slideshow to see the selection.

    Hive 5: Coffee Cups That Aren't Your Average Cup Of Joe

    image
    Sydel Sakuma on Aug 13, 2008 8:22 AM PDT
    Although cups with cheesy sayings are like an epidemic in the office, you can have the mug that brightens everyone's day. These too-cute cups are sure to add some personality to your desk and make terrific gifts if you get tired of seeing the lifeless ones your co-workers use. They are more than just caffeine holders, hand warmers, and paper weights... let's face it, people probably see you more with coffee mugs than with shoes on! So grab one that will make you say 'I do', one that you can use as a color reference, one that has food compartments, or one that just puts a smile on your face. Check them all out at my slideshow!
