Call me trendy (lol), but I love coming across details that cross over from interior design to fashion.  Today it’s all about the bumble bee.  If you’re like me, you’re terrified of the little buggers (and will scream at the sight), but that doesn’t mean you can’t love them as a style detail.

Any insect details that you’re bugging out over?

Happy New Year! Okay, I know I’m a little late, but, for most of us, today is “back to reality” day.  So, I thought I’d provide some ‘golden nuggets’ to brighten your day.

By now, you all know about my obsession with gold (here, here and here are just a few examples), and then there’s my love of geometric decor… put those together and you have items that I’m absolutely obsessed with.

Here are 5 picks I have my eye on.

Any “nuggets” that are catching your eye lately?

American Indian, art print, earrings, headdress, Native American, pillow, tank, wall decal

It’s the start of a new week and I thought I’d kick things off with another Trend Alert post.  This time it’s about traditional Native American headdresses.  A little something you may not know about me is that my grandmother’s grandmother was Cherokee Indian… okay, so that only makes me 1/16th, but I think that’s pretty cool.

So, without further adieu, here are my top 5 headdress picks.

20140615-221837.jpg1. Headdress Wall Decor – 3rd Ave. Shore; Etsy | 2. Headdress Inspired Earrings – Ben-Amun; Charm & Chain | 3. Headdress Art Print – Star and Arrow Designs; Etsy | 4. Headdress Pillow – Amy Hamilton; Society Six | 5. Kid’s Headdress Tank – Brickyard Buffalo
