BUG JEWELLERY!
I love this necklace, from topshop:
It's so how they're all kind of in a cluster, with interlocking legs or feelers. I also think the use of black, silver and gold works very well, and giving a nice strong image.
Also like this ring:
I found it on asos.com, and I have to say I adore the detail on the body. Very pretty.
Found an addition for (any?) arachnid lovers (however bear in mind this is a 2009 piece):
It was from Zoe and Morgan, although the photo is from vogue.com. I love the shape- I can imagine it would look great on. The heart cut out is also a nice touch, I think it emphasises the beautiful shape. Shame you probably can't buy it now...
A slightly more scary number is this (again, from 2008 so it is not so relevant....):
I came across it whilst on vogue- by Stephen Webster. I like the nouveau-gothic style to it, and it is good that it was trying to raise Malaria awareness. This one-off ring was auctioned to raise money for a charity called Malaria No More UK, but 300 replicas were be made and sold on asos.com for £50.
Anyway, happy reading, and more posting coming up!

P.S. Keep commenting! I love comments! They are lovely and make me smile... which makes me look like a chipmunk.
The necklace is kind of nice, but mosquitoes and spiders.. UGH!
ReplyDeleteYes, I don't personally love the mosquito one either, but at least any money raised went to charity!
ReplyDeleteI like the spider ring. I hadn't seen this collection before, so thanks for sharing and come and visit me too when you have time.

Love the spider ring. (Wish it were silver though) I have a super cool necklace which reminds me of it, actually... it's a silver spider encrusted with rhinestones and its abdomen is a dangly red heart "crystal." The jaws lock onto the chain. It was only six bucks but I still can't get over it. Thanks for this post!
ReplyDeleteThank you for all the comments, everyone!
ReplyDeleteI can assure you all that I have been to your blogs too and left comments! Keep checking on mine, an update is coming!
The necklace looks impressive! And I love the asos ring :) xx
ReplyDeleteI think it's a cool idea, too. I love the first one with all the different kinds of bugs. I haven't seen anything quite like that before.
ReplyDeleteThanks for commenting Stiene Saenen and Flow Disruption (what a cool name!).
ReplyDeleteStiene Saenen- I agree!
Flow Disruption- yes I love the first too. Very clever, yes?
Interesting. Never thought insects could be that fancy!
