Fabulous Finds at FIG Finale in Dallas

Art Deco Beaded Clutch- Front

 

One of the first things I saw was this stunning Bougainvillea clutch.  I love the intricate beading and unique shape!  I’m not sure if this is a particular style, but I’m calling it an “art deco” clutch.  Also the basic colors make this bag suitable for almost any ensemble.  

Art Deco Beaded Clutch- Inside Pocket

 

Art Deco Beaded Clutch- Close Up Details

 

 The next items I went on the hunt for were cocktails rings.  I walked away with three very beautiful and very different styles.  

Stunning Rings

 

 I’m not sure what the purple stone is, but I really liked the simple shape.  It’s the color that makes it a stand out piece.  It’s very feminine and fun.  I find this stone to be almost…calming.  

  

Gold Ring with Pink Stone- Top View

 

 What I loved about this ring was that it was ultra-feminine.  Small and dainty, this style shines because of the pop of color!  It’s a beautiful pale pink that would look great against any skin tone.  I wouldn’t really call it a cocktail ring due to its small size, but I would certainly want to wear this ring out and about (and I will!).  

Smoky Quartz Cocktail Ring- Side Heart Detail

 

Now here’s my show stopper!  This is a ginormous, spectacular statement piece.  It is the epitome of a glamorous, cocktail ring.  The gold body has a “twisted rope” and heart design on the sides, which cradles the substantial smoky quartz, measuring almost a full inch across.   

What I really loved about this ring was its regal quality.  It’s not for the faint of heart, or those with subtle tastes.  And I almost lost it when I set it down for one second and another fashionista scooped it up!  She decided it wasn’t for her, and it was then that I decided it was going home with moi.  Because the stone is brown, it will also enhance many different ensembles.  

  

So that’s it for me! I may have only brought home four items, but it’s quality over quantity. These were definitely quality pieces that I’m going to be able to wear for a long, long time.
