About Fuss Jewelry:

Fuss Jewelry Creations is the result of founder Wendy Stauffer's twin backgrounds in biology and design. Her work combines fine metal wire and semi-precious gemstones to create an inspired collection of intricate, gem-wrapped pieces in organic shapes and themes.

Her signature wire weaving techniques form flowers, vines and abstract organic shapes that emphasize the color and cut of the stones themselves, rather than the wire that holds them together. The pieces are created in 14K gold, gold fill or argentium sterling silver. The watercolor stone combinations and unique patterns are very beautiful.

Where to Shop:

You can shop for Fuss jewelry online (Visit Their Site) or at Etsy (Visit the Etsy Site). The necklaces, earrings and rings from Fuss certainly are gorgeous and you can find something you love no matter what your budget. Items range in price from $62 to $700.

More About Fuss Jewelry Creations:

Wendy Stauffer was kind enough to talk with us about fashion trends and how to accessorize.

What accessory trends do you see staying popular?

I am thrilled that platform shoes remain ever more popular through the next season - I can't get enough! Being more substantial than stilettos makes them easier to wear and more forgiving on rough terrain! I believe in only wearing "practical" shoes when exercising. Make every trip out of the house an opportunity to accessorize with a fabulous pair of shoes.

What statement piece should every woman own?

I wish for every stylish woman to own a pair of long, dangly but delicate earrings. Long dangles are a sure-fire way to get noticed and embellish any outfit and keeping them light and delicate ensures easy wear.

What other accessory tips can you provide?

Just do it - to steal a popular phrase. Don't save your favorite gems and accessories for special occasions or nights out! Wear your faves and take the opportunity to accessorize every day. Nothing looks more chic than the perfect pair of jeans, heels, plain fitted tee and a gorgeous statement piece of jewelry. And when choosing jewelry to wear, choose one focal piece.

If the necklace is ornate, tone down the earrings. If your earrings are gem-encrusted hoops, keep necklace and bracelet to a minimum. In this way you will not have pieces competing with each other and you won't look overdone.
