Things I love: Melissa

Melissa is our resident stacking aficionado, nail art enthusiast, and reincarnated mermaid.  She has Lady Godiva length hair, can draw a very cute cat (on paper and on nails!), and can instagram the hell outta jewelry.  Here are a few things she loves:

• Mermaids (i am convinced that i was one in my past life)
• My teeny tiny princess, Jet
• A good DIY glitzy mani (my go-to's include DL Boom Boom Pow or Happy Birthday layered over a dark base)
• Snake inspired jewels (Oli + Me snake rings are one of my favorites)
• Red-tinted lip balm, not to be confused with cherry chapstick
• Black on black on black on black
• Fancy (and inexpensive!) bar soaps - i am an avid user of Saipua white grapefruit for body and Victoria egg white for face
• Mismatched studs for multiple ear piercings - Catbird's 2mm dia ctmh, 14k shoot the moon studs, and 14k ear cuff mixed with Satomi's diamond bar and Nan's small 14k disc - all in yellow gold
• Ashley Lyn Clinton - what a dream boat
• Instagramming EVERYTHING

How We Wear It: Chained To My Heart Earring

We know that diamonds are a girls best friend but what about a diamond with a seductive chain hanging beneath??!

We updated the diamond stud, gave it an element of texture with a teensy chain that loops around your ear and we won't lie to you, we all fell right in love.  Plus, we sell these beauties as singles so you can mix+match and where them wherever you'd like! Oh and we made them in emerald too ;).

Rony, single Chained to My Heart Earring 14k yellow gold, 3mm diamond $450; Nancy Kraskin Long Disc Drops, $398. Candice, single Chained To My Heart Earring 14k white gold + rose gold chain, 2mm diamond, $220, Catbird Heart Studs, $96. Melissa, single Chained To My Heart Earring 14k white gold + rose gold chain, 2mm diamond, $220.

Anatomy of a Stack: Nan's Necklaces

Coco and I nearly fought over this new lapis necklace.  That, as well as ALL the other new pieces from Nancy Kraskin.  She won and is seen here wearing Nan's new lapis necklace stacked with her staple teardrop.  They are just 1 inch different in length which creates the most ideal necklace stack. 

And they look awfully cute on freckly summer skin. 

1. Tiny Lapis Necklace, $286;  2. Teardrop Necklace, $298

How We Wear It : Earrings

I've always wanted multiple ear piercings and since I've known Ash I've envied her collection of mis-matched stacks of studs that always seem to make perfect sense. Here she is wearing three of my most favorite earrings, a Lauren Wolf Blue Sapphire Stud ($176), Nancy Kraskin Dot Earring in Yellow Gold, $80/set and Catbird Rose Gold Heart, $96/set.
