Statement worthy earrings, bracelets, and necklaces are in the spotlight for spring.Large scale, precious stones and tribal inspired jewelry parade down the runways of top designers. 

Marc Jacobs tribal inspired bangles and necklaces gave the collection a fabulous synergy. Louis Vuitton opted for tribal-chic jewelry as well, the jewelry were larger in scale with innovative designs.

John Galliano had big hair, big headdresses and big necklaces. I guess big things come in 3s. Gucci's 'Spring Exotica' collection complimented with amorphous precious stones.

Let's face it, not everybody can stay abreast with the latest fashion and style designers has to offer season after season. With that said... through the undiscerning eye, this Long Boot with Horseshoe Heel by Marc Jacobs would seem like shoe repair gone bad or you tried repairing it yourself. The horseshoe heel is pretty innovative though and Marc Jacobs is in the forefront when it comes to new, sometimes odd heel design. There's also the chance of getting stuck on pavement cracks or any surface the heel can accidentally latch to.

It's been close to three years since I moved to California from Michigan. And the cold season here feels like summer compared to the Great Lakes' bitter-cold winters. Hats, scarves and gloves function more as protective gears from the harsh elements rather than part of your fall/winter look. Comfort over style. North Face Gloves $65.00 Nordstrom And since here in L.A., it's more likely to have an earthquake than snowfall or below zero temperatures and the most likely or perhaps the only place you'll get frostbite is your freezer, cold weather accessories tend to be more trendy and chic.

The Sweater Dress has definitely evolved through the years. Traditionally, sweater dresses are made either with a mock or turtleneck, long or quarter length sleeve and in solid or some hideous print. Well, those sweater dresses are history.

Nowadays, you can find sweater dresses that gives the illusion you are wearing a two-piece skirt and top ensemble; embellished chic designs when paired with the right accessories you can wear to any fabulous event. You can even wear a sweater dress for work. And when an article of clothing can be worn virtually with any look and style, it's been through the wringer of updates and improvements.

These adorable totes from one of fashion's top designer, Marc Jacobs proves that eco-friendly fashion is not just another trend. I say that because, for someone considered to be one of American fashion's best and most talented. Took the time to do his part in saving mother earth. What I love about this totes is they are still quite trendy and chic considering they are made of organic hemp. Snaps for Marc Jacobs!
