Street Style Corner

20 Mar

Reader’s often ask me questions, relay their findings and discoveries, their opinions and thanks for my articles and blog.

But one reader in particular brought it home for me when she said “When i saw your pictures i was surprised you considered your face as round? You do a great job with the makeup I was kind of wondering if you might have a spot for pictures of your subscribers to show their before and after contour pictures? I think it would be interesting to see what your readers have learned through your blog”.

What a great idea. Thank you Gina.

I have introduced this on my other blog

Midi rings

7 Mar

Image

Midi rings, first Knuckle Rings, memory rings or tea rings…Wearing rings higher up on your fingers was actually popular during the Renaissance.

Five hundred years after they signified a wearer’s wealth, mini rings, worn on the foremost joint of the digit—are back on the fingers of trendsetters.

Image

“Wearing one at that time signified a degree of wealth, an indication that “You were of a family that didn’t work in the field or ride horses—you had someone to do all of that for you,” Michael Coan, the chair of FIT’s jewelry design department, explained to The Daily Beast. Just look at Bernhard Strigel’s Portrait of a Woman (above), as proof. The painting, created between 1500 and 1525, features a wealthy woman in a bejeweled collar, also wearing a first knuckle ring”

The first Tribe of Mannequins Bazaar!

It went very well, and business was great – considering the weather was so hot.

The last one until the summer closure will be the first Saturday of April. I shall bring a fan with me next time.

Statement necklaces

12 Feb

Image

At Tribe of Mannequins Boutique, I have been working on a lot of statement necklaces for the past fortnight.

Image

For me, as soon as I have a vision or inspiration of what I want to create; I have to ‘get it out there’.

I feel so much better once I’ve made it, it’s very relaxing to finish a piece.

 

ImageImageImageImage

Nothing completes an outfit quite like a striking necklace.

Here are a few of the pieces new in. All prices listed on the Tribe of Mannequins facebook page:
