Cuffed and Clustered...(Part 10)


Salut Cuffies,

As if plucked from Edgar Degas' lovely impressionistic painting The Green Dancer, this scrumptious hand embellished cuff by Etsy shop Bonheur is a feast for the senses. A fine example of "wearable art", this piece is a luxurious hodgepodge of emerald green vintage velvet, fine black mohair felt, black and forest green silk, vintage turquoise/black brocade, tulle, lace, shiny cut seed beads, sequins and pearls. Its lovely satin ribbon corseted closure reminds me of the worn slippers of an aspiring ballerina --- forever green, forever strong, forever graceful.

Bisous,
Lee

Enjoy this cluster inspired by today's featured cuff!"Pines of the Pacific Coast" curated by Lee Dorsey

Double Trouble (Part 2)




















Salut Cuffies,

Spring has definitely sprung in these joyful green cuffs. Like plump caterpillars basking in the sun, their pale green tones set in shimmering golden makes for a delightful combination. Lilly Pulitzer's "Multi Later Gator" Liza Cuff is on the left. It features a multicolored enamel filled band and is 3/4 inches wide. On the right is a 1 1/2 inch chunky gold green stone fashion cuff by Zalina. Celebrate the season of renewal by reinvigorating your wardrobe with one (or both) of these lovelies!

Bisous,

Arrested developments...(Part 2)

Salut Cuffies,

Is it just me or does this Yves Saint Laurent cuff leave you feeling a bit...envious too??? New from the French fashion-house, the gold ribbed band is topped off with both a large and small green crystal, the latter encrusted in a gold setting. The cut of the expertly chosen larger stone reveals an inspiring pattern of swirls and rings that remind me of an ancient tree stump. At once organic and ornate, it sure would be 'easy being green' in this striking piece.

Bisous,
Lee
