Using what you have in your jewelry box
A quick way to add color and more layers to your look. Brabant least four to five bracelets big small, chunky, multicolor whatever you have.
Don't be afraid to put them all together hence the term 'Arm Party'. This idea comes from the stylist Leandra Medine whom I have already mention as the Man Repeller. I have channeled and modified some of her looks to fit my own personal style. Don't get me wrong one day I will be able to through on a few Hermes bangles too, but for now I am working with what I have. - Facte Ars.
The eagle gets it's fish...
My first metalsmithing class was one that the teacher truly pushed our creativity and forced us to connect with our piece.
Now I more than appreciate the actions of my professor since it has become more of an art rather than just putting pretty things together. I love pretty shiny things don't get me wrong but creating something that connects can just be more inspirational and gratifying to accomplish.
One project was to create a charm bracelet with a personal story. Since my then boyfriend had just proposed to me I created a sterling silver bracelet with a connecting charm featuring an eagle catching a fish. The story comes from my maiden name translating to 'the eagle' in english. My now husband is a true fisherman, so I carved out both an eagle and a fish and placed the fish in the eagles claws symbolizing that the eagle has now caught her fish.
Since this was a first metalsmithing class the charm is a bit raw but has such a special place in my heart.

Feminine / Masculine Fashion for Women
In my fashion life inspiration has come from so many different facets. All of my life I has always tried to think out side of the box.
I am excited to find a new and back to high fashion stylist to find inspiration from. Beauty is truly easy to find in so many forms of fashion, art and music. Yes, this 'Man Repeller' form of fashion may not be for everyone, but it has quickly become one of my favorite blogs to follow.
Enjoy and always, Facte Ars.
Karmaky - Be the Good
Karmaky - Be the Good I came across this site from a friend and thought we could all use good karma. Doing a good deed for someone can help your heart in ways you have never thought imaginable.
Another form of creating, creating positivity for others. Facte Ars.
