Michael Kors Accessories 2016 Turned Me Into A Stalker…

Michael Kors knows a thing or two about the details—why it’s essential to have them, and how to snatch our attention with all things shiny. Darn him for making me LOVE him for what he masterminds. In the business since 1981, this designer with nearly 35 years of fashion expertise has gone on to prove that he’s not new to this, he’s true to this. MK here, MK there, whatever MK makes, the fashionistas want it all. And although it’s true that there’s something to be said for a simple design, sometimes the draw is in craving that more is more product that is intentionally overdone. Yes Cityrocka Perry said intentionally; as in Michael Kors is heck-yeah purposeful in all of his style choices. Hello—he was a designer for Celine at one point guys, which means that he’s very minimalist capable as well. Let’s give respect where respect is due. Michael, you can be modest, but this style accessories blogger is going to continue to write boastfully on your behalf. Michael Kors is a CFDA Award Womens Wear Designer of the Year recipient, a Project Runway Alumni, and he’s got flagship stores in most major cities. Wait—why am I so amped up when no one is even debating me on the subject? LoL. It’s time for me to exercise calm, the opposite of #nochill. So, let’s get into it, what the majority of the world loves about Michael Kors and what we’re stalking for this upcoming 2016 New Year. All photos are straight from the super source on Michaelkors.com.

Bag-Michael-Kors=

I have a fondness for all of the colors Mr.Michael Kors, but Every girl wants a gray bag. No really, every one of us does, but it has to be in the proper neutral shade of gray.

M.K. hit the ball out of the park with this one, and then he stepped it up by adding pyramid studs.

Michael-Kors-Accessories-And-Ensemble

Cityrocka is sensing a theme here….. It’s a new take on 70’s fashion, but with a modern twist. I’ll take the shades, the bag and the belt…..

Michael-Kors-Accessories-Color-Block-Accessories

Color Block – The color combinations are BOMB aren’t they? It looks really expensive, that brown white and black. Again, the sandals, the bag, the belt.

They can all be styled so many ways .

Michael Kors had updated the fanny pack to a logo leather pouch belt combination created for just for the It-Girls. And Cityrocka Perry is fully here for it.

 On a shirt dress, or around a vneck? Yes please.

Michael-Kors-glitter-stripe-smartphone-case

This horizontal striped Michael Kors Glitter Smart Phone Case will exemplify that you’re someone with great taste—and you’ll also be BLINGY as you use it.

Well, I could’ve gone on and on until the break of dawn with more M.K. Accessories, but all good things must come to an end. Now as for the Michael Kors Gossip?  Too messy.

Besides, this Chick wants to see FREE M.K. Trinkets in her future, so I’ll leave the dirty work for someone else to handle. It’s all for you though…but don’t believe everything that

you read. Michael Kors, are we GOOD?

Fine New Looks From Swarovski

I think Swarovski is on to something with its new spring/summer 2016 collection.

Many of the pieces offered in the line look like high-end fine jewelry, from elegant statement necklaces to on-trend earring styles. Pair this aesthetic with Swarovski being a well-known name among consumers, and you’ve got an affordable line with potential.

Here are my top picks from Swarovski’s new Sea of Sparkle collection, all of which I think offer great sale-ability, wearability and style.

120715_Swarovski-Exist-Necklace 120715_Swarovski-Exist-Ring
The Exist necklace, which features a ribbon design in a rose-gold plated base metal with clear crystal pavé ($169) and goes with the Exist double-ring, also made in a rose-gold plated base metal with clear crystal pavé ($149)

120715_Swarovski-Torque
The “Torque” necklace is a true statement piece in a rose-gold plated metal with clear crystal pavé. The organically-shaped piece is made with a spring-hinge closure mechanism ($249).

120715_Swarovski-Edify-Necklace 120715_Swarovski-Edify-Cuff
The glamorous “Edify” necklace, also in a rose-gold plated metal with Swarovski’s crystal pearls ($299). The matching Edify cuff also has the V-shaped structure of the necklace and is made with the same materials with the addition of clear crystal pavé ($125).

120715_Swarovski-Exact-Bangle
The “Exact” bangle, available in multiple sizes, offers a fluid silhouette in a rose-gold plated metal with clear crystal pavé ($169).

120715_Swarovski-Creativity-Earrings    120715_Swarovski-Edify-Earrings
The Creativity earrings, left, are made in a rhodium-plated metal with crystal pavé and are meant to be worn with the small hoop on the front of the earlobe and the larger hoops behind the earlobe, like a jacket ($99). The Edify earrings, at right, are in a rose-gold plated metal with crystal pearls and crystal pavé ($89).

120715_Swarovski_Except-Ring
The “Except” double ring offers an open-shank silhouette in a rhodium-plated metal with “Light Azore Moonlight” crystals and crystal pavé ($149).

120715_Swarovski-Eglantine
Of course, it couldn’t be a Swarovski story without a little color. The “Eglantine” necklace, inspired by aquatic flora, features an array of colored crystals in a palladium-plated metal ($299).

120715_Swarovski-Watches-1 120715_Swarovski-Watches-2
Swarovski’s “Daytime” watches, made with a stainless steel case set with 48 clear crystals on the bezel, a 34 mm dial, index markers and the Swarovski swan logo at 12 o’ clock. These timepieces feature a Swiss quartz movement and come in a variety of colors ($249 to $299).

Boss – How to Be One; Print Your Own 3D Accessories

Boss. Boss Chick or Boss Boy, whichever applies to you, step into your destiny (cue inspiring Rocky sound track).  This Accessories Blogger is BEYOND excited to share the scoop on a specialty company called Zazzy.me that allows you to CREATE your own 3D print jewelry and SELL it. This is not a sponsored post, and get this; here are some inspiration pieces. You can make everything from awesome necklace pendants, to chic cuff links, to key-chains, to bold bracelets, to rad rings and you have full control over all of the designs. Cityrocka Perry isn’t sure about you, but I’ve actually dreamt of things that I wanted to rock out in but knew that I didn’t have the means to access for myself .

Who Should Be Really Hyped About This Style Accessory News?

Well, bloggers and Vloggers for sure-sure. I mean, aren’t You within that core group of people as eager as a beaver to establish a burgeoning brand? You could turn round and sell customized items on your site; products which are a reflection of precisely who you are as a boss and a style maven. For your already established fans,friends, and followers, making the choice has got to be almost effortless. C’mon, even if you aren’t into any of the above you have to admit that the concept is way cool. In itself it has to be a real ego booster to say that what you’re wearing was conceptualized by YOU, YOUSELF, and ONLY YOU.

Why Cityrocka Perry Cosigns This 3D Business Idea

Because I can and want to, but that’s not all though. Zazzy.me touts itself as being as rescuers from accessory vendors who are peddling nothing but the usual, “overly priced and soulless jewelry design.” They also take care of order fulfillment, packaging, and shipping. For more info, BAM. And here’s a fact for you. Did you know that on average, jewelry is 13X more expensive than the production costs? So, who else is sold? Why or why don’t you think that 3D printing is the wave of the future?

Fashion Inspiration – Mad Hatters

Fashion stalking alert. With the fall season swinging into high gear, we can all only brace ourselves for the big chill about to head our way. Quite naturally for the fashionista, this involves

finessing an extension of style by way of cool puffer down coats, quilted leather moto jackets, soft knit scarves to bundle up in, and toasty warm gloves; preferably ones that allow the use of our electronic devices to take an appropo selfie. Oh, and hats.  After writing the prior sentence, this Style Accessories blogger stands corrected for providing you with a most underwhelming description. *Ahem-Ahem* It is THEE HAT, the SEASON of THE HATS actually, and it will dominate and define your most memorable Autumn/Winter fashion moments.

That Hat Life.

Floppy, wide brim, beanie, bucket, beret, scully, fedora, pork pie (yes, there really is a style of hat that goes by such a name), and many more. With so many choices, and so little time it almost seems unfair that one cannot wear more than one per outing. The end look has the capability to make one appear unbelievably polished; so pulled together that hat-hair is but a fleeting thought. In other words, the consensus winds up being—unbothered. And why would a true fashion trend setter worry about unruly hair anyway? This key accessory pick offers up both form and function by maintaining our body heat and making us look totally FAB to unknowing onlookers.

Celebrities Go-To Accessory

The secret to being stylish with that hint of edge is out, that means Beyoncé,Gwen Stefani, Zendaya, and Taylor Swift, just to name a choice few. We all want to be fashion-do’s and we’re discovering that wearing the right hat at the right time in the name of fashion just might lead us into the VIP section—possibly right besides you.

Two New Montblanc 1858 Collection Watches Tout The Minerva Heritage

Montblanc 1858 Chronograph Tachymeter

Two new limited-edition timepieces for the Montblanc 1858 Collection were unveiled Tuesday at SIAR 2015, the luxury watch show in Mexico City. Both watches, as with the rest of the collection, pay tribute to the 157-year history of the Minerva watch manufacturer, known for its hand-made chronograph movements.

The watch manufacturer was acquired by luxury holding company Richemont in 2006 and is now part the Montblanc brand, which Richemont owns. Montblanc changed its name to Villeret, after the picturesque Swiss town where the facility is located. It still produces hand-made high chronographs, tourbillons and classic watch lines; and bespoke timepieces for private clients. It also provides specialist movements for Montblanc’s main watch manufacturing facility in Le Locle.

The newest pieces for the Montblanc 1858 Collection were modeled after a chronograph launched by the Minerva manufacture in the 1930s in both appearance and function.

The main product released Tuesday is the Montblanc 1858 Chronograph Tachymeter. The 18k red gold 44 mm-diameter case features a design with rounded forms inspired by those of the Minerva chronograph from 1930. In keeping with the original design and function, the watch has a beveled winding crown with a monopusher function to activate the chronograph.

The vintage-style dial has “cathedral” hands coated with beige Super-LumiNova, so they can be seen at night. The display is laid out around two counters, the first displays the seconds at 9 o'clock, and the second subdial shows the minutes that have elapsed once the chronograph complication has been started. The dial background painted in deep black with the historic Montblanc emblem shows a traced rail track with a tachymetric scale for measuring speed in terms of a timed kilometer.


The MB M16.29 caliber of the hand-wound monopusher chronograph is the same size as that of a pocket-watch. It was inspired by the original chronograph movement, the 17.29 caliber, designed by Minerva in 1929, and has many of the same functions. The column-wheel is activated by the single push-piece built into the winding crown. The iconic engraved Minerva “V” chronograph bridge can be seen through the transparent case back (pictured above).

The horizontal coupling in this classic construction is combined with a lever that holds the chronograph's hammers, and is finished off with a little arrow, the visual signature of Minerva. This classic mechanism, assembled, adjusted and finished by hand in Villeret; comprises 252 components, has a depth of 6.30 mm and oscillates at 18,000 vibrations per hour, with a power reserve of about 50 hours.

It is being sold as a limited edition of 100 pieces.


The other product launched at SIAR 2015 is the Montblanc 1858 Small Second Special Edition timepiece (pictured above). The stainless steel, 44 mm diameter case has a design that contains many of the codes of the historical chronographs produced by Minerva. A direct-drive small seconds is located at 6 o'clock and has a hand-wound caliber with a beveled winding crown.

Like the previous timepiece, this watch has a vintage-style black dial has Arabic numerals, “cathedral” hands coated with beige-painted Super-LumiNova, and the historic Montblanc logo.

The MB 23.03 manually wound caliber has 17 jewels and an approximate 46-hour power reserve once the barrel has been fully wound. It has a balance that oscillates at 21,600 vibrations an hour. The visible finishes can be seen through the transparent caseback.

It is being sold in a limited edition of 858 pieces, paying tribute to the birthday of Minerva in 1858.

Fashion Trends – Sock it To Me or Nah?

SOCK it to you or nah? Celebrities are taking a STANCE to be About That Sock Life, which means the rich are getting richer, and this FASHION accessories blogger is getting WORDIER. As consumers, we put them on, only to toss them to the side once we’re done with them, but it turns out that sock lines are BIG business. Move over soft drinks and skin care lines, socks are products with mass appeal. I mean did you even know that wearing socks with sandals is now “in”?

Celebrities Who You Probably Don’t Know Have Sock Lines

Rihanna – yep, the Barbados beauty and songstress has joined the fashion movement and her sock line mirrors her personality in being a whole lot REBELLIOUS with a dose of Chic. Expect newspaper print and horror poster style designs that will kidnap your attention. (In a heavy English accent) Can you please have some more? Sure, check-check the video below. I’m already in love with the catchy name of her line; Murder Rih Wrote—it’s one that’ll stick in one’s head for sure right?

Rob Kardashian – I already know what you’re thinking. We don’t see him anymore. You wonder if he’s lost weight. You wonder if he’ll ever make another appearance on the Keeping up with the Kardashians. This is about fashion accessories so I’m going to bow out by saying that I don’t know. But what is for certain, is that HOMEBOY’s got a sock line. Arthur George is the name, and his designs are quite creative. My favorites are the catchy words cleverly written on sock soles i.e…Baby Daddy, Sole Mate. And in true he-get-it-from-his-mama Kris Jenner form, Rob Kardashian has got all of his bases covered. He offers up everything from crew socks to fashion leggings, to tights.

Dwayne Wade – He’s not just a hoopster on the Miami Heat, as most have seen, Dwayne Wade loves FASHION and STYLE, and his sock line is a reflection of HIM. Think mixed patterns; a leopard, checkerboard, stripe combo. When you think about it, it’s kind of cool to have accessories that are authentically you; let’s not forget that it’s also something that he’s making a profit from.
Snoop Dog – This won’t be too long of a description, just know that it’s in fashion. The marijuana leaf and bandanna pattern, the oh-so-very much Snoop socks.
Patrick Carney – Whooo??? He’s the drummer of The Black Keys, for those of you who didn’t know. This is when this Blog Post goes RANDOM. It just proves my point that sock lines may be MORE than just a  fashion trend.
And here’s your dose of Celebrity Accessories Gossip. Guess who just signed an endorsement deal with STANCE SOCKS? The one and only bearded one, the ballin’ James Harden. He sure did. Now, all of this sock talk is making Cityrocka Perry want to rummage her sock drawer to find suitable replacements that are COOL and totally MORE ME. If you’re in, keep it scrolling… keep it scrolling…
