Meilily Product Pick: Best Facial Mist – Kerstin Florian Rehydrating Neroli Water!

Unassuming packaging aside, Kerstin Florian’s Rehydrating Neroli Water, feels › Continue reading

Meilily Photos & Swatches: Sally Hansen Nail Polish Strips in Love Letter

Nail polish is the new lipstick, and if you haven’t been under a rock in the last year you know that creative nail polish art has gone mainstream. Nail product giant Sally Hansen has kept up with the nail art trend and has updated their fun-and-easy nail polish strips line, Salon Effects, to include more patterns like this handwritten love letter polish.

Reminiscent of the cool DIY newsprint nail polish look, these handwritten polish strips combine a DIY modern feel with a hint of old-school paper and ink, but without all the extra steps, paper cuts or consumption.

Sweetheart Necklace by Erica Weiner: Choose Your Lyrics

Sunday, July 15th, 2012 | Jewelry, Photos, Product Picks, Style Picks | Comments Off on Sweetheart Necklace by Erica Weiner: Choose Your Lyrics

Meilily Product Pick: Erica Weiner Brass Sweetheart Necklace with Lyrics or Custom Text!

Erica Weiner is still one of my favorite indie jewelry makers.  From the ingenuity and whimsy of her best-selling handcuff lariat necklace, and now to the vintage sweetness of her letterpress lyrics heart necklaces, there’s something extra special about Erica Weiner’s pieces.

Earlier this year, during a sale, I picked up a couple Sweetheart Necklaces by Erica Weiner with custom stamped text on both sides.  The one inch brass heart is like a larger and flatter sweetheart candy heart on a 16″ chain, and with custom, slightly imperfect, letterpress lettering it looks rather striking and feels one-of-a-kind.

I chose to customize the necklaces with lyrics › Continue reading
