What Is Hip?
Our Favorite Things Are So much Cooler Than Oprah's

cloud pendant Cloudy with a Chance of Crystals
Dr. Robi Ludwig may be best known as psychotherapist who regularly appears on the Today Show and Larry King Live, but what people don't know is that the lady has a smashing sense of style. So when the self-proclaimed shopaholic approached QVC and pitched her idea for an inspirational jewelry line, a new collection of wearable delights was launched. The perfect mash-up of her professional life and her high fashion taste, the first piece is a cloud-shaped pendant bedazzled with clear pavé crystals. Available in gold or silver, the words "Big Dream" are embossed the back. The message: "Believe in ourselves and our dreams and remember that every cloud has a silver lining". Literally and figuritively, it's a nice way to be. QVC.com

tree of life headdress Head Over Heels
Oh how I wish that I had a reason to wear a tiara. Not being a pixie princess or an elven wood nymph (or even a Gossip Girl), those occassions are quite limited. So until that moment manifests, I'll just gaze adoringly at the Thyme2dream Etsy shop and imagine myself flitting around town in one of their ethereal masterpieces. Pictured is the Tree of Life Circlet Headdress which pays homage to White Tree of Gondor and the "healing of the nations". Silver wire was intricated twisted and braided with glass leaf-shaped beads adorning the front. If Tinkerbell lived on the Upper East Side, I'm sure she'd own one (or a dozen). And if Blair Waldorf does a coffeeshop production of Peter Pan, she'll know where to go. Thyme2dream.Etsy.com

star necklace Everybody is a Star
Star imagery never goes out of style (at least those are words that I live by). So whenever I come across another piece of jewelry decked out in the five-pointed loveliness, it's tempting to hand over my credit card number. That's exactly how I felt when I found LeRevebrise's Shooting Star Necklace . This piece features a star-shaped prism pendant that is delicately wrapped in fine silver wire and adorned with aurora borealis crystals. Check out the rainbow of colors as it hits the light. The bauble is a reminder that "lives and loves are touched by romances that leave pieces of the heart as markers on the never ending journey". LeRevebrise.Etsy.com
