BRVTVS

I used to have a thing with gold... mainly that I didn't like it. It didn't stem from anything in particular, other than I foolishly thought it was too mature for my style. Now I love it. Ghetto, heirloom, delicate or bold - I don't discriminate. BRVTVS (pronounced "Brutus") is a line I am currently coveting. Designed by Caroline Ventura, named after history's most famous back-stabber and inspired by her love for menswear tailoring, BRVTVS is comprised of pieces that are equal parts delicate and restrained. Backed by a humorous tagline encouraging us to forget BRVTVS's dark past and "be friends", I personally couldn't agree more. I'll start with the Portia bracelet.

ONE by...

 'One By' is the latest concept from shopbop, one of my favorite sites (free shipping!). Created to bring you a thoughtful and edited assortment of items from fabulous up-and-coming designers, 'One By' is a great way to pick up a few key pieces for spring, without having to sift through an entire collection.

With great prices and ideal silhouettes for the shift in seasons, 'One By' will be one of my stops as I prepare for Portugal in May!Yippee!

Okay... Check out my favorites below.
