three layer cake: House of Harlow

Spikes and studs are everywhere lately. I personally love the trend. I think it's so fun to pair a feminine piece with a tough piece... think pink pouffy cocktail dress paired with gold spikey bracelets. Floral pants and white top paired with chucks and heavy eye make-up.

Cute while still being edgy.

What do you think about this trend? Is it a GO or is it a NO?

As I mentioned in a previous post, my boyfriend and I are on the hunt for our very first home together (non-rental woohoo!). He keeps teasing me about my love of gold... he thinks I'm going to decorate our place like a Trump Tower. It's true- I do love gold. I think it makes everything look warm and inviting... not gaudy!

What do you guys think?

Here are some golden pieces that I think are sophisticated and cool :)

Enjoy...
