This weekend, I went shopping at Forever 21. I literally stopped dead in my tracks right in front of the Alex and Chloe jewellery display. Edgy and opulent. Goth and glam. These are the words I would use to describe the fabulous chunky pieces in their Forever 21 collection.

I admit I have never heard of Alex and Chloe before even though I’m usually in the know when it comes to fashion. At my age, I should be wearing more grown up jewellery but their designs are just so cool! I picked up a pair of the earrings below.

I also purchased the bangle bracelet below, on the bottom.

I have a new design crush and can’t wait to see more of Alex and Chloe.

Whether you love IKEA or not, you must check out their LIVET HEMMA blog. Livet Hemma is Swedish and it translates to LIFE AT HOME. The blog LIVET HEMMA is written in Swedish, but you can google translate it into almost any language

I like to mix inexpensive IKEA items with my other modern and traditional furniture because I love the simple lines of some of their designs. Like the EXPEDIT book case. I own it in black/brown and I’m always changing up the accessories. Their pillows, vases, lighting and baskets are so affordable and they can be combined with any style of decor.

What I love about this blog is that it gives me ideas and inspiration on how to spruce up my own space on a budget! Why didn’t I think of using an IKEA mirror as a perfume display? Don’t know, but now it’s an idea that just might come to fruition!

Lovely and feminine. Modern glam!
