“Jewelry isn’t necessary, so why should it make sense?”

Those are the words of Tracey Beale, and her words couldn’t be more true. If you haven’t heard of her before now then you’ve been missing out. I first heard of and actually had the pleasure of meeting her a few years back while visiting Houston. She had a table set up inside the now defunct Club Visions where she was making complimentary jewelry on the spot for everyone. Of course, being the jewelry whore that I am, I had to get a piece made for myself - and yes, I still have it.

While browsing her website earlier today, I came across this necklace, made of leather, brass and gold and I love it. It’s definitely screams Victoria, although I’d wear it a little lower on the neck. But that’s just me.

If you loved the panda pendant from yesterday, but aren’t insane enough to spend them money on it then this cute bear pendant/pin from Real Collectibles by Adrienne® is a great alternative. It comes on a long 30″ chain, which I love. Plus if you prefer to wear it as a brooch it has a pin on the back just for that purpose.

I am so in love with the pendant. I’m pretty much speechless. It’s white gold with black and white diamonds and it comes in three sizes (small, medium and large). Of course I want the large, because my philosophy is when it comes to jewelry bigger is always better.

When trying to find just one pendant to showcase on the site, I couldn’t. Karin Collin’s spoon pendants are so fabulous she makes it hard to pick just one. Each pendant is a little collage featuring glitter, cameos, flowers and just about anything else that can fit on the small canvas. These are truly unique pieces for unique women.

I first saw this watch on a friend a few months ago and fell in love with it. It’s so cute, much better looking in person. It has a rubber strap (comes in blue, red and yellow) so it’s even durable for those who are a little rougher on their jewelry. I have the same style watch with the zebra face and it is one of my favorites.

I love me some large gaudy (or as my Mom would say, gawky) jewelry, so this shell ring by Mesi Jilly is right up my alley. The price is a little steep, but for something this original and fabulous I wouldn’t mind spending the money at all.
