Crystalized


This is the Labyrinth necklace from Erica Weiner whose work of been a fan of for some time now. I really like the handmade, but not precious elements of her jewelry, and of course, her points of reference: A pre-Balenciaga Jennifer Connelly and a post-Ziggy Stardust David Bowie. Glamorous in every incarnation!

Inspired by: Michael Myers






This Mended Veil mask necklace (center), which I've obsessed over for years and recently re-visited, is the perfect creepy/cool nod to John Carpenter's Halloween. This is my favorite scary movie for a number of reasons; First-off, it takes place in suburbia- perhaps the scariest place of all. Second, Jamie Lee Curtis' epic high-waisted denim and crisp button down is a look that i've been feeling for some time now. In a time when edgy is the new norm, and sorority girls are wearing pyramid studs, this just looks fresh.

The Beginning



After much pondering, mulling-over, procrastinating and working-out of kinks, I'm ready to share my perspective with the world. Or at least with the few close friends who I know will read this!
