This month sure has been a month for red carpets and awards. And for a celebrity fashion blogger like me, it sometimes is nerve-wracking following over the star’s glamorous frocks and glittering expensive jewels. But, that’s what this season is all about, right?!

Anyway, while it is to be expected that lots and lots of diamonds would sure be hitting the Academy Awards’ red carpet this Sunday, don’t we wish to see something refreshing, hip, and a bit different in the accessories department, too?

Well this particular post I have right now is about these funky pieces I found from Marie Chavez, Marcia Moran, and Soho Hearts. And funky it is, I believe each of this pieces are chic, stylish, and fab in their own way you would wish to see the stars rock them on the red carpets, too.

If you want to see more of these items, check on the websites of those designers above. (By Rechelle Tolinero)
