inspired by...

the styling of these images by Sana Designer Wear. I love the balance of contrasts in colors in the top right image... red & blue against the black & white. And the rich jewel tones in the others has got me dreaming of redecorating my boudoir.

Breathtakingly Beautiful...

pieces by Anne Maa. Her growth never ceases to amaze me.

Oooo, la la...

I've been kind of obsessed with weddings lately. All the little details that create the celebration remind me of all the tiny components that make up my jewelry. I can't decide which of these sets of Cathy Waterman rings I desire more. I love the shapes, colors, and variety of designs of the top gold rings, but I think I'm leaning toward the understated, quietness of platinum. Nonetheless, I can't afford any of the rings, but the amount of inspiration I draw from Waterman's designs is invaluable...

So Sorry Lovlies....

I've been MIA again, but for great reasons!! Things are constantly growing and changing at Aquarian Thoughts, most fortunately for the better. We have been busy developing relations with boutiques in the NY/NJ area and gearing up for the upcoming show season. A fall collection to be previewed soon, and a few trunk shows to be announced. In the meantime, check out our events page to see if Aquarian Thoughts will be exhibiting in a city near you. Stick around I've got some goodies to share...

happy friday + warm summer

nights drawing closer by the hour. How fab would it be to throw on a slouchy black tee, your favorite jeans, a pair of sexy summer heels and a pair of huge shell earrings like these while enjoying one of these quickly approaching nights? Guess I've got some things to make this weekend. I hope you enjoy yours....

absolutely in love with...

these gorgeous silky pieces from Tibi's fall 2009 collection. The jumpsuit happens to be my fave!! The line consists of so many great designs it was hard for me to choose which ones to display. But these colorful numbers have me thinking of pretty things to adorn my wardrobe with and the makeup has inspired me to try something new. . .

it's the details...

that always inspire me. Simple yet detailed drawings by Gabriel Dionisio Ramos Romo. {How can you not love that name!!} Much more of his designs here on his flickr account.
