Opening Ceremony's Olympic activities still rage on
While the most of us have been glued to the TV for the last couple of weeks watching some the world's best athletes compete at the Beijing Olympics, there's another group of people competing in a very fierce retail competition stateside.
In honor of the summer Olympics, Opening Ceremony released a limited-edition run of metallic gold and silver Air Max 1 and the Nike LunaRacer. They also threw a really big party, too, and even had jewelry designer Philip Crangi host a ping pong match in their store.
Luckily, the good people at Style.com went and documented all of the madness for those who are more into Micheal Phelps instead of Marc Jacobs right now. In this clip, watch as a slew of guests breakdown their funky outfits, amongst other things.

Why aren't you wearing this? Vintage Flower Bead Ring
Vintage touches are one of our favorite things. We love pieces that look old enough to have a story about them, like, "Over 150 years ago, my grandmother's grandmother had to sell all of her jewelry in order to keep the estate, but this was her favorite ring, and her favorite housemaid kept an eye on who bought the ring, got a job there, and stole it back! Can you believe it?"Continue reading Why aren't you wearing this? Vintage Flower Bead Ring

Tip of the Day: Wear Jewelry Alchemy by Melissa McClure
The brains behind the organic line dubbed Jewelry Alchemy, Melissa McClure brings the infinite idea of "opposites attract" to life in her line.
Coming from a family lineage full of jewelers and goldsmiths, it was only natural that McClure start her own jewelry collection. Having much to do with her split childhood between energetic New York and laid back Texas, her collection is an excellent contrast of nature vs. urban.
Some of our favorites from her silver and gold collection are the static branch choker necklace, asymmetrical large twig clasp necklace, assorted button bangle bracelets, double helix bracelet, leather wrap honeycomb, and the long simple twig earrings.
All stores that carry the line are located in West Hollywood. However, if you aren't in Cali, all's not lost. You can shop the line at Cake Jewelry.
