Splurge: Sergio Rossi Butterfly Cutout Satin and Metallic Leather Sandals, $1,150; modaoperandi.com Sergio Rossi finds my Achilles heel with these gold sandals. The exquisite details and luxe materials are definitely worth a splurge. This is one of those shoes that you can buy to make any outfit an instant success. Bored by your black dress? No problem. With this pair of shoes, the gold standard is set. Related: Style Splurge, Style Steal: Fetish Fashion Steal: Wendy Brandes Emoji Earrings, $35; wendybrandes.com Jewelry designer Wendy Brandes found her signature in clever jewelry details. The fine jeweler makes everything from acorns with miniature squirrels inside to fairy tale shirt studs. When she is not forging tiny woodland creatures into gold, she&amp;#039;s making of-the-moment text-cessories. Her best stuff is a tech-savvy collection of Emoji earrings. Priced at $35 each, it&amp;#039;s pretty hard not to justify getting enough piercings to just make a sentence. Plus, I am pretty happy that someone figured out the middle finger Emoji was a must-have. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
