Jennifer Morrison - When Chaos and Order collides

"Colour, shape, rhythm, juxtaposition, movement and repetition" - yeah I'm hooked!  There is a certain playful, "not-too-precious" air about Jennifer Morrison's abstract art works.  Something familiar and engaging, yet nothing that can be comprehended or explained - just a moment of pure fluid visual contemplation - with our without meaning. Life itself is a risk they say and Jennifer says that she "likes the way abstraction allows for ambiguity".  To live in such beautiful harmony with ambiguity... if only we all could.  Imagine that.

Runway trend - Spring 2017 Ready-to-Wear - Medallion Necklaces

It seems like Chanel & Prada have something specific in common this season on their Spring 2017 Ready-to-wear runways - Medallion Necklaces!  They might as well also be glammed-up back stage passes for all you know.  Either way these bold eye catching statement pendants suspended from equally gorgeous chunky chains are a win-win for everybody who choose to wear them this season.  View the entire collections here and here.

How exciting is this?  Taking the asymmetrical trend a bit further - the latest craze - mismatched earrings assembled from what seem to be odds and pieces of some found objects.  Marni's Spring 2017 runway boasted some amazing eye-catching jewels complimenting the bold architectural look of the collection.  View the entire collection here.
