Wearing Your Heart Wherever You Want
I hate Vegas but I love hearts. (Alex Woo Little Big Vegas Heart.)
We all know why there is so much heart-shaped jewelry around on Valentine’s Day. Not everyone has the dough for diamonds. But who’s to say that only puppy-eyed college boys and haggard husbands destined for Hallmark prescribed dates are the ones who should be interested in bling that beats? Or that we have to limit the wearing of it to Valentine’s Day even? Continue Reading

CommentThink Pink
In India pink may be the new navy, but in our culture, when we think of pink we tend to think of all that is girly. Ballet slippers, cupcake frosting, bubble gum, and every automobile and piece of real estate that Barbie ever owned. It holds its place in fashion, too. Elsa Schiaparelli introduced “Shocking Pink” and Mamie Eisenhower loved and wore pink so much that it became known as “Mamie Pink.” A vibrant pink called Honeysuckle was named Pantone’s color of the year for 2011. Perhaps more significantly though, Pink is the color of universal love. Continue Reading

Fever for Fes
You may recall me gushing about my favorite earrings, a pair of silver hoops from San Francisco jewelry designer Vicente Agor. Well, these days his Fes Ring is at the top of the list of jewelry I’m lusting after. It’s part of his Moroccan Garden collection, which also features gorgeous earrings and necklaces in gold shapes inspired by Moroccan architecture and a gold version of the hoops I love so much.
Oh yes, the Fes is calling out to me in a big way. Someday. When I win the lottery.
My New Favorite Earrings
I think I first saw these earrings a couple of years ago when my dear friend Lisa was working as a rep for San Francisco artist, Vicente Agor. I fell in love with them immediately. But I had to love them from afar because they were made of gold and not in my budget.
Here we are a bit later… Continue Reading
A Case of Jewelry Lust
So, one of the traditional gifts for Valentine’s Day is jewelry. I certainly love jewelry as much as the next woman, but I especially love jewelry that carries meaning, so that the wearing of it takes on a totemic quality. This could be a ring with a stone that has particular qualities, or a charm that signifies a particular place or experience. Continue Reading

My name is Angela Eloise and I am a freelance writer. I recently moved to Seattle because I wanted a better home base to support my creative goals. And my shaman told me to. Cloud of Chaos was born from my desire to dance with the absurdity of life, to create a space where I could write and share all of the gorgeous, fun, snarky deliciousness I find spinning around me every day. What does a spinning cloud of chaos have to do with writing? Everything, as it turns out.
