Monies Necklaces

When I visited family and friends during this holy month of Ramadan, the first thing I noticed was how people accessorized their caftans, and specifically who wore the most beautiful big ol’ baubles around their necks. Some were... eh... and some were ah-may-zinggg! And for some reason I was always more drawn to the type of necklace that literally weighs you down!

The past year I can safely say that I managed to collect unreasonably sized necklaces in my arsenal thanks to Danish jewelry brand Monies. I first discovered the brand last year during my trip to Istanbul and now I can't seem to have enough of this brand. Luckily for me, or maybe unluckily, Nass Boutique stocks Monies. They're the kind of pieces that set themselves apart because of their uniqueness. 

According to their site, Monies was founded by Gerda and Nikolai Monies, who have turned over 40 years of experience into an elegant, avant-garde line, produced in the beautiful workshop overlooking Copenhagen's Harbour. They work with materials such as petrified wood, fossils, precious stones, shells, coconut, amber, coral cowhorn, copper, stones from danish beaches and 24 Karat Gold from greenland.

I passed by Nass Boutique the other day to check out their new arrivals of Monies, and I ended up buying two necklaces, my poor bank account. I fell in love with the golden multistrings necklace in black leather with oval-shaped maxi beads. Scroll down to view more of what's available at Nass.

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.
