Remember that I shared with you one way of storing/ displaying your accessories by using the memo pin board? Now for an even cheaper version.

Went to Daiso and saw a very nice chart.. actually a planner. This is really nice and affordable. It cost only S$2.00 and you may keep about 40 items in it. The plastic allows easy viewing too.



If anyone out there have any tips relating to storing, keeping, maintaining accessories, please do share with us too!

Hi all, before I start uploading pictures of my arre-works, let me share with you gals tips while you shop for necklaces (adapted from Smitten, july 08)

Everyone should have at least ...

2 Fun necklaces
Let loose with vibrant, personality-filled pieces that make a statement.

-Look for a trendy nexklace, This could be all you need to buy into a seasonal look, like chunky strands of love beads for the bohemian trend.

-Interesting materials - acrylic cut-outs, colourful fabric beads, and so on are fun and unusual.

1 Classic necklace
A matinee-length strand of pearls or diamonds is agelessly elegant for work or evening.

-Look for a classic necklace with lasting value, that you can wear under a shirt for work or with a gown for evening.

-something understated instead of something loud. Pay attention to colours and shapes, and pick something you will like for years.

1 Casual necklace
Spice up your daily wardrobe with a simple versatile necklace that tells a different story every day.

-Look for simple pendants or charms that will blend in with a busy outfit.

- Metal with a heavier weight (lighter pendants or charms look cheaper and wing around)

-Pendants and charms with personal meaning that tell your story.

Avoid or stay away from:

Charms or pendants that spell out your name in huge bling letters - too hip hop wannabe ;P

Love,
