Get Your Jewelry Box In Gear

We know how to change a tire — but we much prefer to show off our gearhead skill fashionably. This trio of gear-shaped gold bangle bracelets for C. Wonder gives a harder edge to a soft look, or a more dainty look to an edgy ensemble. There’s also a big, thick gold gear-shaped bangle if all that rattling will drive you crazy. What an easy way to do moto chic! [$38, C. Wonder]

Shopping Guide: 10 Cool Cuff Bracelets

One awesome cuff bracelet can be as effective an accessory as ten slight, skinny bangles. Behold, 10 thick, totally terrific statement bracelets that do the talking for you.

Awesome Affordable Etsy Find: Elk O’Clock

I’ve never seen anything quite like this elk bracelet. Everything about it — from the the rhinestone face to the majestic antlers and four chunky gold chains encircling the wrist — is so delightfully strange. Wear it with your sweet sundresses to hit up parties and concerts this summer. Not only will it add a dose of bling to your outfit, I’m sure you could use those antlers as a weapon if things got out of hand. [$7.80, cutecharmjewelry] Keep reading »

The Tribal Touch

We love this woven palm bracelet from Free People. The tribal pattern is totally on point and, since they’re handmade, each cuff varies in design. This statement bracelet will liven up the dreariest of outfits and can be paired with other patterned pieces to create a look with depth. Fantastic find!

Cheapskate: PNKElephant Has Jewelry You’ll Want And Can Afford

If you’re a lover of costume jewelry, like we are, then you’re going to want to bookmark PNKElephant.com. Not only does this accessories site have of-the-moment rings, bracelets, earrings, and necklaces, but it also has really affordable prices. Everything is $30 or less, with many pieces priced between $7 and $10. Yes, you read that correctly. I sampled the fall collection yesterday, and can also tell you that the quality of PNKElephant jewelry is very high, unlike some of their competitors. The fall collection features military-inspired pieces done in matte silver and gold, but the PNKElephant team assured me that there will be more glitzy jewelry items for holiday. Take a look at this affordable and chic jewelry after the jump. Keep reading »

Are These Profile Bangles Great Or A Waste?

Russell Greenberg from Cameo by RUX has created his idea of a modern cameo. He carves resin bangles and 18-karat gold and platinum rings into 3D portraits of anyone’s profile. And all he needs is a photograph. While personalized jewelry is usually an awesome gift, these bangles are so clunky they’re ugly. And really no one is going to notice it’s someone’s profile. A large amount of craftsmanship and work goes into each of these pieces, I’m sure, but I can think of many more things to spend $350 on rather than a portrait bracelet. The rings are actually beautiful, though, and would make a meaningful wedding band, but cost $1,700 a pop. What do you think? Are these portrait bangles and rings awesome gifts or a phenomenal waste of money? [Refinery 29] Keep reading »

We’re always looking for accessories that are both tough and cute. And once again Madewell has delivered. This Gatsby Cuff was inspired by the Roaring Twenties, as you probably guessed. The metal mesh adds some edge to the sweet bow, making this a cuff you’ll want to wear all the time.

We All Deserve Something Beautiful

We can’t wait to see “Eat Pray Love” tonight, but in the meantime, Dogeared is keeping us occupied. The jewelry company has a line of delicate trinkets and jewels in honor of the film. We’re particularly taken with this purple macrame bracelet. The bright purple color mixes up standard metal chain bracelets. Wear it alone, with your watch, or with a bunch of bangle bracelets. We couldn’t agree with the message more: “I deserve something beautiful.” That’s right.
