Playfully Posh - My new necklaces inspired by the D&G alphabet line for fall-winter

Dolce and Gabbana's young label included cute and playful tight fitting knitwear, chiffon skirts and boyfriend blazers. The traditional autumn colours of yellow and orange got a D&G revamp with flowery, swirling shirts and tight leggings imprinted with letters. 

Multi-coloured horizontal lines with alphabet letter imprints dominated a great deal of the collection in the form of shorts, trousers, leggings, shirts,dresses and pantsuits.

The D&G accessories for Fall/Winter 2011-12 were high heel sneakers and alphabet necklaces, bracelets and earrings. 

I was delighted by this colourful, playful  and cheerful collection and was inspired for my new line of statement necklaces "Playfully Posh", which I made with colourful chains and felt letters and beads:

New necklaces

I have written many times before about the creative challenges of the Europeanstreetteam of Etsy! The last months I didn't participate to most of them, but I try as much as I can, because it is a good motivation for creativity!

This week the challenge theme is "rainbow" and is hosted by Natalie, aka Dinafragola! You can visit her blog to see all the gorgeous submissions. I'm participating with this necklace:

I also joined an other challenge with monthly themes, the  "Being Creative" project of   Julia Crossland and made this necklace for the June theme "Ocean":

And since I started making necklaces, I was inspired to make some more:

My iron broke, my glasses, my watch and my p/c!!!!I bought a new p/c, struggled for two days to move all my files and programs, but I still can not connect to the internet!!!On Monday I'm expecting a technician to come and fix it!

In the meanwhile I managed to finish an unfinished shrug finally:

and made a lot of new necklaces, most of them have already been sold and some of them I have not been able to take pictures:

I couldn't resist the temtation and bought new materials, silk cocoons and rods hand-dyed and yarn:

and made these necklaces:

I have two new bags almost finished and the perfect way to show you how to adjust a zipper to your jacket/wet or bag, without having the wrong side looking ugly when the zipper is open, but I will show it to you in a next post! take a pick of what I will show you ;)
