Updates on "getting my style on"

I realized that I never updated about my shoe choice to The Wedding Event of the summer.  Over the weekend I made my jewelry and tried the whole thing on w/ a green pashmina wrap that matches the green beads in the earrings/bracelet.  Looked pretty darn good (IMO) and short the wrap (that I don't have a picture of) here is the get up.  And for the record I still can't find a decent picture of the dress online.

With regard to the earrings and bracelet...  I found the teal and crystal beads, links, chain (30") and chandelier earring posts at Ben Franklin.  I robbed an old necklace I never wore of its green beads and got to work with a pair of needle nose pliers.  This was a rotten PIA but I am thrilled w/ the way it came out.  Got the earrings done first (after 3 tries and a lot of time spent in front of the mirror) then moved on to the bracelet.  It goes around my wrist 5x and so I roped it back and forth, attached links at the 2 ends and added the clasp.  Then I started randomly putting the beads on.  I still have a few left and am wondering if I can try my hand at a large cocktail ring for my right hand.  We'll see...I've moved on to a new crochet project so this may be the end of my costume jewelry for a week or 2 :)

And because The Hubs is going to look pretty swanky himself....here's his suit and my opinion on what his tie should look like :)  We'll see if he'll go along w/ his tie matching my bling and pashmina.  tee hee!
