Just Monkey'in Around! 20 Great Monkey Themed Accessories, Home Decor & Gifty Goodness
I was recently introduced to a fab new social network organized around the various things people are passionate about, including sports, TV, crafts & of course, fashion!. Sulia's subject-based approach makes it easy to connect with experts & other enthusiasts on topics you find interesting. Life lifestyle & fashion in my case - plus Stacy London's personal shopping company, Style for Hire, sponsors the Fashion Channel. (If you want to follow my doings directly there, here's where I "live" on Sulia.)
As one of Sulia's first fashion contributors - part of a small, hand-selected group - I handpick & opine upon whatever dings my raccoon-like radar for anything shiny & fabulous. Like monkeys. This week I thought it would be fun to monkey around a bit with some cool jewels, homey finds & other stylish simian shenanigans.

But for #20, I wasn't monkey'in around any more. These gorgeous Yunnan golden monkeys now number less than 2,000 and are almost extinct. To help, donate to the Nature Conservancy's project to protect the golden monkeys from both illegal hunters and destruction of their habitat.
