    Tupperware parties are so retro and Mad Men chic. But do you really want to try and sell tupperware to your friends when they have kitchens the size of a broom closet? Why not throw a new type of party where you can share your expertise on super cute inexpensive jewelry instead? Started in California, Stella & Dot has been popping up all over the states now. Sign up to be a party hostess and a Stella & Dot stylist will come to your house and provide a free personal shopper experience by letting you and your friends find some fun jewelry. Prices for the jewelry range from $29 to $250 and they have everything from dainty stackable rings and charm necklaces to large statement chains and beaded bibs. As a hostess you get a percentage of sales to use towards Stella & Dot (say hello to free jewelry!) as well as the option to buy some half-priced items. Check out the slideshow to see some of the jewelry and log on to www.stellanddot.com to find a stylist to book a party.

    With the arrival of the Obamas in the White House, all eyes are on Washington, and it's not just our new president who's capturing our attention. Michelle Obama is demonstrating a true flair for fashion, and her individual style is garnering more than a few fans. With simple lines and beautiful tailoring, she brings to mind another first lady and fashion icon. Already we can identify some aspects of her signature style: her penchant for flats, Erickson Beamon floral brooches, belted dresses, and complexion-flattering jewel tones and pastels. For anyone who was left in doubt of her stylistic prowess, her Michelle Obama's inaugural gown cemented her place among the other formidable fashion mavens who have graced the White House. Check out the slideshow to see some pieces that exemplify the new Mrs. O's wardrobe.

    Michelle Obama has caught our eye with her impressive collection of brooches and we can't wait to see what new ones she will wear as First Lady. While we're waiting, we thought we'd find some vintage brooches as well as some created by independent designers. Smashing Darling is a great online indie boutique to start with - they have a large selection from Bakas Artysta, and One Sweet Peach, as well as others. There's even a patriotic one, and you really can't miss the vintage fireworks brooch with antique gold and red rhinestones. Plus, we found some great brooches made of felt and even buttons- so perfect for your DIY-obsessed friend or even yourself. Check out our slideshow for a dozen of our favorites.

    Let's face it, accessories can make or break an outfit. This past season was all about long necklaces, headbands, belts, and earrings; well, now try working a brooch into your ensemble to add a bit more unexpected visual interest. This classic sort of pin-me-on is all in the spirit of the old ways done in new ways. Vintage inspired, super modern, or surprisingly shiny, brooches are a fun and classy sort of way to add on a little extra something, but the best part is that you can put on as many as you want, move them around, and put them on whatever your heart desires. Click on my SLIDESHOW to see the fabulous brooches and where you can find them all for yourselves.
