First, I have some good news to share with you all (at least the 12 of you all that have visited my blog so far)! I've just appointed myself a new position, and just like that *snap*, I am now a fashion stylist. Although this is not a paid position, I will take it very very seriously, as if I were a stylist working for a prominent fashion magazine. Well hell, let's be real, this is MY blog, and, it is filed under "fashion", so in essence I really am a stylist working for a prominent fashion magazine, err rather blog - whatever, tomato/tomatoe. Surprisingly, on my very first day of duty, I was called to drop in on a very special event last night, as I unexpectantly got the opportunity to attend Nick Lachey and Vanessa Minnillo's joint birthday bash at the ultra grown and sexy plush LAX Nightclub in Las Vegas, using my VIIP status, "VERY IMPORTANT INTERNET PERSON".

So, after "surfing" over to the soiree 1st class, via my DSL high speed connection, the first thing to catch my eye, other than the fact that these two love birds share the same date of birth, was Vanessa in her not so celebration garb and how she did not take advantage of her MAP, "MAXIMUM ACCESSORIZING POTENTIAL". Although she did look stunning in her navy blue sequined above the knee length dress, I noticed that she was missing that statement piece of artwork that would seal the point onto her exclamation!

http://www.3bjewels.comThe "fashion stylist" in me couldn't contain itself, and as you know my specialty is jewelry, so I had to swoop right down in order to save the day. I quickly dabbled through my stash (I always keep one on hand in case of such an emergency) and found the perfect piece to compliment her simple, yet elegant chic style. And, since it was her birthday, I considered it my gift to her, as to not offend her for committing such a serious fashion faux paux. I presented to Vanessa Mannillo, Spiral, from the
Beryl Blush Blonde collection. These 14K vermeil gold earrings are thievishly priced at only $39 and make a bold statement as they generously hang a little more than 3” from the earlobe. And although there isn’t a pressing need for any other piece of jewelry, it was her birthday so why not make the crowd swoon by pairing the earrings with this, 18 karat gold ring with apatite, by designer Jennifer Yaun’s
Zhen-U.N. collection.

is right around the corner. Anyways whatever you decide to do, Happy Birthday to you both Vanessa & Nick! Hope you had a blast, as did I!
