Get Styling with Murval Paris Accessories

Happy Monday Everyone,

This is yet another exciting day at Coquese because we are debuting a lovely collection of handbags and belts  from Murval Paris.  This line offers tastefully-crafted stunning, durable and affordable accessories! When I saw these lovely pieces, I was literally going to get one of each item. I know you are wondering, are they really that good? Yes, they are!

           Thomas Leopard Satin bow Hobo

 

To understand my fascination, let me introduce to you,  the Thomas Leopard Satin bow Hobo. This hobo has a unique tasteful look that makes it perfect for spicing up a Jeans & T-shirt outfit or a nice sexy dress on a romantic outing with a significant other. This handbag would definitely bring out your wild side.

 Now, if  you are interested in a sleek look either for a formal or causal occasion, then check out the Grainy Trio. Every fashion-forward lady needs at least of these in her closet.  

Grainy Trio: Studded Grainy,  5th Avenue Grainy, Christian Grainy

          Wide cinched belts in black and beige.

Are you looking to accessorize a dress or blouse with a belt? Then check out the “wide cinched” belts in black and beige.

These are just a few of our new accessories so check out other gorgeous ones from this amazing collection. They'll brighten up your day and your closets too!






Have an awesome week and remember to drop us a note letting us know which Murval Paris product you like most.

New Zomo Collection

Happy Friday!

No better way to start off a day than presenting you, our readers with a jewelry line that is out of this world! I am so excited to introduce you to Zomo!  This Hong-Kong based line consists of tastefully crafted, Asian-Spanish inspired stunning rings, bracelets, necklaces,bangles and wrist watches.  

You can accessorize your "girls night out" outfit with the Resin bangle, the Women secret watch (in white or red) or the Colorblock hers ring. Hmm,  the Colorblock his and hers ring would make wonderful presents for loved ones who appreciate unique colorful jewelry! 

My favorite of the bunch is the bonded leather bracelet;  I love the rose resin collage set on steel with the yellow leather band. It has the fun-loving yet elegant look which makes it perfect for spicing up almost any outfit except for business attire, of course. I will be styling this piece this fall!

So browse through the Zomo collection and drop us a note, we'd love to hear your thoughts on our new collection. Have an awesome weekend! 

DIY Glittery Boots!

Happy Monday everyone!!!  Autumn is here!!!  Fall is my favorite season out of all.  I just love the crispy sounding of dry leaves as I step on them.  And that subtle color of auburn and orange just brightens up any gloomy day.  Color is not the only thing I love about Fall, of course.  What else?  The boots obviously!!!  After 6 months (spring+summer) of going barefooted (sandals and flip flops do feel bare to me), it's time to break out all the knee high boots and booties!!!  A good pair of boots can last years and years.  After wearing them for several seasons, wouldn't you want them to have a "bootie-lift"?  When I came across this DIY, it hit me.  I knew this is the perfect DIY to share.

FROM THIS

TO THAT

Thanks to Steph and Trish (Le.Franciulle blog) for sharing this awesome DIY.  Head to her blog for the full instructions here!!!

Spotted: Good Life for less + Opal Clutch

I am extremely fascinated with the fashionable talents that Jill has displayed by creating multiple outfits with just a single clutch.  She was able to match Mar Y Sol's opal clutch with 3different outfits, each for a different occasion.  I have to say, I love every one of them.  Here is a more detailed look at her three inspirational outfits.

OUTFIT 1:  A casual outing or even a date night in the city.  This outfit is casual enough for a quick brunch with your BFFs in the city, but with that cowl neck top and cream color wide waist belt are definitely calling out for a romantic date night with your significant other.

 

OUTFIT 2:  Spontaneous and live to inspire!  This outfit, Jill describes it, "it was like the perfect trifecta of pre-planning, spur of the moment inspiration and unbridled carelessness."  

 

OUTFIT 3:  Ready for party anytime!  Party in the house.  Party on the street.  Party in the club!  Party in this virtual world!!!  

Which one is your favorite?

Who is Jill?  She's the author behind Good life for less blog, Good tots and 100 Inspirations.  She's a stylish stay-at-home mom who's not afraid to use colors and shapes in her wardrobe and yet comfortable enough to wear while having fun with her two young children.  Talk about her children, her daughter, Abigail, is super cute(check her out in this video while her mom showcasing her scarves tutorial).

I want to send out our sincere “Thanks” to Jill for featuring us.  I can't wait to read more of her styles.  I wish everyone a happy Friday and a fun-filled weekend!

DIY + Happy Friday!

This is all you need:  brass ball chain, leather cord, waxed linen cord, and 1/4" brass hex hut.

Happy Friday my friends!  When I saw this lovely DIY wrap bracelet, I know I have to share it with you all.  I just love it when creativity goes beyond a whole new level.  It's jaw-dropping when you see jewelries make of something totally unexpected, brass ball chain.  When you think of brass ball chain, you think of a little chain hang around to a table lamp that you can turn on and off(I think you still do see that when you go to Home Depot or Lowes).  Who would've thought that it can be reused as an accessories.  Now you can, just go to HonestlyWTF for full instruction on how to make this.

Do you like this DIY?  Feel free to share the result image with us!
