Rhumba! Item of the week: Swarovksi Rhinestone Y Necklace

I stumbled upon this lovely necklace while browsing through the newest items at Rhumba! Jewelry (of which, there are quite a few). It's beautiful and unique, and I just had to take a closer look at it. The necklace features sparkling Swarovski rhinestones in bright spring colors in a unique modern design, but with antique-y elements, and it's put together in such a way that looks almost steampunk - I just adore it! AND it comes with matching earrings. FABULOUS!

I would wear these pieces together, but they'd look just as fabulous worn separately. These are great pieces to dress up jeans. I have a some skinny jeans and a slouchy jade green cardigan these will pair nicely with.

How would you wear the Rhumba! Item of the week? Let us know in the comments below! ;)

Spring 2011 Jewelry Trends

Spring is coming! And with it, comes color, sparkle and shine.
Accessories are a great way to update your wardrobe without losing your shirt, so to speak. So if you're looking to save a few coins, we say, invest in accessories.
But where to start? The jewelry fashion forecast for this season is: a lot of gold tone accessories, along with greens, purples, plums, and oranges. Coral adds an element of freshness to an ensemble, and is a great color for spring that compliments nearly any skin tone. Large chunky plastic chains make a great statement, as do cocktail rings on your pointer or middle finger. Multiple chains are still in style, in metals or with natural elements like leather, wood, or bone. Chandelier earrings are always a must, and bracelets are big! Layer chunky bracelets or group smaller bangles to add texture to your outfit.
We've assembled some faves from the Rhumba inventory for you - although this is only one-gazillionth of the stock, so be sure to check in frequently to see the latest fashionable finds!
