DC Tourist: Natl. Portrait Gallery

The Aunty and I went on our first DC adventure this Summer : Destination National Portrait Gallery. These pictures encanted me - reasons, too many to explain. Look. Admire. & Come up with your own reasons.

Jaw-Dropping Alexis Bittar Pieces

This cuff is a love child of the 1980's and the new millenium. The angular shape makes the piece edgy while the neon pink color makes it very feminine. The melted gold gives the cuff that antique look that Alexis Bittar keeps consistant throughout his collections. this cuff comes in gold as well but this one caught my eye These pair of earrings, (to me), look like a gold peice of paper that was crumbled up due to an indecisive mind. BUT to everyone else, it should look like a "pretty & tough" combination that comes from the same collection as the pink neon cuff, Miss Havisham.

These knot earrings come in Rhodium, Gold, Teal, and Blue. I like these becasue they are big, and they're knots. I kid! The shaping of the earrings draw people in, which is the freaking point!
