Buzzing Over Bones

I first saw this photo on Twitter and I immediately fell in love. This Bone Bracelet beauty is made using 24K yellow gold and oxidized silver and decorated with rubies and 2.15CTS diamonds. It was designed by a Turkish company based in Ankara Turkey called Atelier Minyon.

It really takes a certain amount of confidence and cool to carry off such a little odd yet astonishingly beautiful piece. I just can’t seem to shake the idea of wearing it all year long. Yes it is a bit more dramatic than the usual cuffs and bracelets, but I feel like it generates 1,000 watts of gothic glam effect that’s insanely fashion-forward.

Here’s a little something about Atelier Minyon, In 2008, Atelier Minyon was created to expand Jewel House of Minyon in the United States. Atelier Minyon is a jewelry design house that melds the romantic history of Turkey with modern design and offers fresh innovative collections never before seen in the United States. they have opened their first US store in SoHo, NYC in 2008. And EVERY piece is hand made and one of a kind so they pride themselves on no two pieces being the same.

I'll leave you with some more of my Minyon favourites. To find out more about Atelier Minyon, visit their site or facebook group.

Miu Miu Pays Tribute to the Middle East

Everyone who knows me, knows that I have a soft spot for bag charms. They're fun, cute, and add a dose of irresistible character to your plain handbag. So when I got the news about Miu Miu paying tribute to the Middle Eastern culture by presenting an exclusive playful yet multifunctional accessories in luxurious precious skin, I got excited intrigued. The round-shaped charms has the Arabic alphabet, each piece presenting a letter design with metallic hues and vibrant colors. They're cute, nothing groundbreaking. I'm not sure if these bags charms would step up my bag charms game, but I guess it depends on their price tag and how "exclusively" exclusive they are. Maybe they'll grow on me? I don't know... What do you think? The charms should be available exclusively in Miu Miu Boutiques throughout our region.
