Matthew Williamson Chiffon Weave Bag!
So Luscious, Exotic and Papaya Colored, You Almost Want To Take A Bite Out Of It!
Matthew Williamson’s melodious chiffon weave bag - drenched in papaya color, adorned with antique brass hardware, and featuring sequined silk, chiffon detailing, and dip-dye fringe - should set your fashion palette to “mouth water.” Fabulous day to evening bag and it's 30% off!
This England-made original comes with a 20-inch strap drop, satin lined interior with a zip pocket, zippered compartment closure, and knotted rope shoulder strap. But a lot of bags out that are well-made and use delectable materials, such as sequined silk, antique brass hardware, and chiffon detailing. This bag, though, is different in a hard-to-quantify way. Indeed, the challenge for this review is to draw a picture in your mind using only words to capture the sheer lusciousness and organic flowy, drapy, sexyness of this hangbag. (which is also somehow classical and a bit Old World inspired, btw).
I keep going back to the “fruit” metaphor - and not just because of the papaya coloration. There's something almost chewy about the different textures of this bag. It's at once mottled and knotted and smooth and flowy. One might imagine that the bag might belong to the wife of a great British explorer (perhaps "exploiter" would be a better word) circa 1876. You can see sort of an aristocratic British high society lady carrying this with her on a railcar through Sierra Leone or perhaps on safari to Kenya. If that makes any sense.
Maybe my impression is completely off-base here, but what really matters is that the bag does give a STRONG impression. That can be both a good and a bad thing. If the impression is not commensurate with your style, then obviously it's bad. But if you are searching for something curiously yonic, flowy -- almost like a beautiful little lapdog that protects your belongings and requires zero walks a day -- then check out this intricately embellished, exotic, and easily recognizable Matthew Williamson vision.

Guest Blogger thefind.com Show Us...The Shoes To Wear To A Wedding!

It’s the season for wedding wear and we all know how the task of dressing as a guest can be a little troublesome. If you’re not in the entourage do you match the theme? Wear black? Wear white? (No. Absolutely don’t wear white.) Make an effort to stand out? The questions can be pretty endless. Nonetheless, once you find the dress the rest should be pretty easy. The only next trouble is looking for the perfect shoe to go with. At a recent event I was speaking to a friend who needed fashion advice, asking me which type of shoe is best for her as a guest, to wear with a sexy purple number. Without hesitation, I said, “Nude pump!” And nude shoes (whether it’s strappy, a pump, etc.) just isn’t for weddings. It’s for any fancy occasion so you won’t just buy it for one date, you’ll be wearing its worth multiple times. I hate to say it, but black pumps are going out of style. Celebrities are already wearing it all over the red carpets and at the swankiest places. Nude footwear slims and elongates the legs and since it’s such an amazing neutral, it can go with any color from yellow, to purple, to black. For the best results, I would pick one that is as close to the skin tone as possible. Shown above: Jimmy Choo Patent Platform Pump, Steve Madded "Bevv" Platform, and the Alexander McQueen Studded Nude Pump.

Techno, Jungle, Throbbing, Bejeweled, Fantasmagorical Rings from KD2024 Collection
Your wardrobe will definitely have a new look with the very edgy and completely funky over-sized rings from The KD2024 Jewelry Collection.The inspiration is drawn from animals, nature, shapes and textures. The designer uses natural bright stones such as tourmaline, amethyst, moonstone, onyx, red garnet and citrines. While this striking mix of biker chic, eccentricity and cool may not be for everyone, we felt it was intriguing and worth viewing.
I love wearing a great fitted blazer, skinny jeans, a white tee, fabulous boots and a gorgeous python bag with a statement piece of jewelry. KD2024'S rings would be that one over-the-top piece. For a real trendy look wear two rings on different fingers with Poppy Queen's vampy black lip gloss. Obviously, the KD2024 Collection is designed by a very creative, fashion forward individual! Be sure to read what my guest blogger had to say! Betsy Brown






Do you believe in gypsy magic and the Dark Arts? Are you kind of afraid of yourself… but in a good way? Are you somewhat amused by how easily intimidated people are by your wild fashion sense? Do you often picture yourself as a character from a future dystopia war movie – a gun toting post-feminist biker chick type on a mission to save the world by facing down a sentient serpent, perhaps?
Were you, maybe in a past life, a cartoon character from a weird, but oddly arty Japanese Manga?If the answer is yes to any of these, then the KD2024 Jewelry Collection may be just what the witchy fashion doctor ordered! These pieces are highly artistic, blending silver, gold, stones, jewels, shapes, and vibes into something wholly undescribable. Each object is handmade and uniquely talismanic.
Consider, for instance, Psychedelic, a silver bedecked, richly carved dragon-like ring with purple gems. Or check out rings like the Legacy, a beautifully carved silver ring adorned with what looks like an onyx but what could quite possibly the dark eye of the Beast, Himself.
Look, this collection is starkly different from practically anything else out there that I've seen. Say what you will about these pieces -- in my last post, I described a KD2024 bag as "creeptastic" and I meant it -- but this is damn good marketing. KD2024 knows who its customers are. And they’ve built a meticulous aesthetic that is vivid, memorable, dark, twisted, throbbing with energy, and, as we keep coming back to, just a wee bit scary.
One last piece to look at – the “Core” collection: rings and a necklace (not shown) that's at once tribal and post-apocalyptic – full of blacks and silvers and just a touch of gold. Asymmetric, well crafted, battle ready, sexy, and menacing.
Stretch your perspective, and enter the world of KD2024 to catch the vibe. It’s like seeing a haunting movie like Dark City – an experience that etches itself into your mind and lingers there for a while afterwards, giving you a bit of the creeps and perhaps some surprising insights into human nature itself.

Wildfox Muscle Tees!
Are you a Wildfox? It's so easy to become one! We love their loose fit tees for they beach or just hanging out. They're fun muscle tees featuring great logos/sayings, deep-cut armholes, rolled raw-edge hem and a chest pocket. Looks great with cut-offs or a cute skirt ! Great sexy tees for the beach. Click the banner to indulge! We love the over-sized tee with your "bf's" boxers!
Jimmy Choo Cosmic Nude Pumps!
Jimmy Choo's Cosmic Leather Pumps are pure, classic Italian goodness. Bella! These are comfortable, luxurious and surprisingly sexy. Yes, they have all the "bells and whistles" you might expect from Jimmy Choo, including a padded insole,leather lining and sole, pointed toe, and a self covered heel that measures 5.25 inches ( and compares to a 4-inch heel.) All sounds good at least in theory. But what about the on-the-ground reality? Do the ladies who buy and wear these Jimmy Choos say good things? A casual glance at customer reviews from around the Internet reveals essentially nothing but gushes praise:
"I love this nude shoe!
"Jimmy Choo knows how to do nude right!"
"For me, I will say they match with everything. After all it is nude, and it’s extremely comfortable.
"The most classic shoe a girl can have."
"I love them…they are my new favorite shoes! And they look absolutely fabulous!"
Warning: some customers did complain about the rather narrow toe box. But if you have an olive complexion – or you plan on getting a tan – these Jimmys should be ideal for the spring (what’s left of it) and summer months. Whether you're sprucing up your executive wardrobe or searching for something fun and universal to wear with this summer’s fashion candy (Admit it... you've splurged on goodies that you really couldn’t afford. Que cera, right?), blast off to new fashion heights with these Cosmic Pumps. Click the green link to indulge! Jimmy Choo at Saks Fifth Avenue

Van Cleef & Arpels at the Tony Awards!
One of our very favorite jewelry designers... Van Cleef & Arpels shined on the red carpet at this year's Tony awards. Catherine Zeta-Jones and Hannah Yelland wore Van Cleef & Arpels for the 65th Annual Tony Awards in New York.
Catherine Zeta-Jones, a presenter and winner for her performance last year in “A Little Night Music”, wore a sparkling red Elie Saab gown. Her selection of Van Cleef & Arpels included: 1974 “Estate” diamond cluster earrings set in platinum and 18K white gold “Narcisse” ring containing one emerald-cut diamond totaling 5.41 carats set in 18K white gold. Gorgeous!
Hannah Yelland, nominated for Best Leading Actress in a Play for her role in “Brief Encounter”, wore Maggie Norris Couture and shined in the following Van Cleef & Arpels couture-inspired pieces: “Dentelle” diamond earrings set in 18K white gold and the “Organdi” diamond bracelet set in 18K white gold.
A Few Goody Gumdrops wishes to thank and credit Van Cleef & Arpels with this dazzling update.

Alexander Wang's Pochette
Alexander Wang Angela Small Pochette. We continue to be intrigued by so many of Alexander Wang's funky designs. We especially love the small trendier version of this bag! It's ever-so cool with the oversized studs at the bottom. Perfect day to evening bag. The size makes this bag a fashion favorite. The bag features pebbled leather, exposed zip main compartment closure, two hidden zip pockets at side box pleat and button details at detachable adjustable handle. Wang's bags tend to be a tad bit of heavy although we have not actually carried this version. I am sensing since it is so much smaller then the big version it should be easy to carry.
