Chrissy Leighton Snake Cuffs
Sure the snake motif isn’t anything terribly original – everyone from Kenneth Jay Lane to the Olsen girls with their Elizabeth and James jewelry line have featured snakes prominently recently — but I’m still loving this Chrissy Leighton Venom Cuff ($189). If I ever saw a real snake I’d be completely grossed out, but there’s … Continue reading “Chrissy Leighton Snake Cuffs”
Juicy Couture Cuff: Snob or Slob?
I think the Juicy cuff on the left above looks great, but there are two reasons I would never wear it. One because it’s a total knock off a Spring Summer 2009 Fallon Cuff (pictured above right), that I bought last summer at Barneys and two because Juicy is one of the few labels … Continue reading “Juicy Couture Cuff: Snob or Slob?”
Fendi Studded Cuffs
As if the Fendi handbags and shredded white mini dresses weren’t covetable enough, I’m loving Fendi’s jewelry this season. The Fendi Palladium studded cuff ($545) and the Fendi Acrylic studded cuff ($545) add instead edge to any outfit. Sure studs may be all over the place, but the contrast between the acrylic/palladium and the spiked … Continue reading “Fendi Studded Cuffs”

Both pieces are handmade in London and uniquely eye-catching…so fun! I’ve never seen anything like these and the idea of … Continue reading “Nicholas King Diamante and Silver Stud Cuffs”
Citrine by the Stones
Citrine by Stones was started by a mother-daughter team and everything in the line is handcrafted at their studios in Miami and Peru (they also donate 10% of all profits from their website sales to Bridges Across Bordersa, a non-profit organization that focuses on clothing, feeding and providing shelter and education for Cambodian children). I … Continue reading “Citrine by the Stones”
Eddie Borgo S/S 2010: Snob or Slob?
I’ve always found Eddie Borgo to be somewhat over-rated. His jewelry has a ridiculously prominent display at Bergdorf’s and just last week it was announced that he is up against Dana Lorenz and Alexander Wang for the CFDA Swarovski Award for accessory design. Yes his pieces are fun and funky, but when you get down … Continue reading “Eddie Borgo S/S 2010: Snob or Slob?”
