Christmas Covet List pt. 5

I am so loving animal inspired jewelry right now, and for Christmas I would love nothing more than a fantastic cocktail ring adorned with some sort of bejeweled exotic cat. The three photos below are all awesome examples I've found through Etsy (though I wish the second one was a little more clear - it looks gorgeous!)

I found this one a few weeks ago and, regrettably, forgot to copy down the seller's name... When I went back and did another search tonight, it was nowhere to be found. I'm assuming such an awesome piece was sold pretty quickly... I love the "diamond" accents on the fur and the "emerald" eyes. Sweeeeet...

However, my less-than-successful attempt to give credit to the seller of this ring did lead me to a couple more beautiful rings:

This piece is sold by ChezVous and is a vintage piece from the 80's - loving the 80's right now (who would have ever thought that I'd be craving a blazer with shoulderpads??? that's for another day...) It reminds me of the jewelry they would display at dig museums when I visited a few archaeological sites during my summer in Tuscany - Roman-era rings were very similar!

Finally, my absolute FAVORITE piece - a handmade knuckle duster by Fleathers... agh I even have the perfect outfit to wear this with. It would also be a perfect addition to a "Modern Dorothy" look - Lions, Tigers, and Bears indeed!

Barbie Fashion Print by Robert Best

I have two of these prints hanging in my apartment - I found them at a luxury baby store in Cincinnati when I was shopping for a shower gift for the older sister of a good friend. I LOVE Barbie, and obviously I love fashion, so I couldn't pass them up. I was disappointed that they only had two left, and since then I've been on a search to find a third. This one would go perfectly with the two I already have (Barbie in a black evening gown and Barbie in a pink sun dress with a parasol - this is a combo of the two and would be the perfect compliment!) Plus, not only are the prints fantastic, the gold frames are BEAUTIFUL!

This is how much I love Barbie - my grandma gave me this watch when I was really little (wayyyy to little to appreciate a Fossil watch with the original faceted face). My mom kept it for me until I was old enough to appreciate it, and now it's one of my favorite accessories. It also came with a scarf (which I featured with Winnie in my early scarf posting). I can't get enough of her!

Koi Tassel Bracelet, by The Glamourai

I'm really into animal jewelry (this isn't the only creature piece on my list this year!) especially these Koi. The colors go with my favorite pair of earrings, and I've been in the market for a multi-tiered gold chain bracelet. Plus, I've been coveting almost everything Kelly makes since I discovered her blog earlier this year, and this piece is right within this year's Christmas budget...

Christmas Covet List pt. 1

So, every day until Christmas, I've decided to post a different item that I'm coveting for Christmas. Most of them will be actual items I'd like to get as a gift, but occasionally I'll throw in something that's totally outrageous...

J. Crew Sequin Scarf Cardigan - on sale! (I wouldn't mind the blue denim shirt underneath, either!)

I really like the look of the sequined jackets I've been seeing around, but I really love that only the front/collar part of this cardigan is sequined. It makes it a little more practical for every day wear, plus this champagne color is really beautiful!
