The designers of the K/llr Collection met at Parsons when they were studying…furniture design. After Katie borrowed a bracelet from Michael to hide a new tattoo from her mom, they discovered a shared passion that would turn into a global business. After just over two years on the market, their line is now being sold at Barneys and in 30 other stores worldwide. What drew me in was their V-shaped jewelry. They’re just the kind of edgy pieces you need to remind everyone that just because it’s spring doesn’t mean you’re leaving your dark side behind. The brass ring ($135) uses V’s to make a diamond shape, but the pretty and perfect gem is far from your mind. It’s all about metal for these girls, from the gritty gunmetal-plated cuff ($385) to the quill spine necklace ($465). If you want to balance the rebel style out with some femininity, pull your hair up in a loose, romantic bun and slide in the pointed brass pistil earrings ($135) that (like all K/ller Collection pieces) were carefully handmade in the good old US of A. Available at Barneys New York.
