Vintage is hot. So is a lotta bling. So what could be better than these rocker chic, vintage inspired, rhinestone pieces from Winifred Grace’s Fall Collection?
Honestly, not much. We’re off to purchase one (or two… maybe three?) for the fall. They’ll dress up our day ensembles nicely, and add an edge to that little black dress. Perfect.
It might be a strange trend to be picking up on, but we’re not making this up…
Elephants are everywhere right now - in jewelry, accessories and decor! But the rings are by far our favorite way to sport this motif. From left to right: A bejeweled elephant from Anthropologie, a simplified elephant in brushed yellow gold by Abraxas Rex for Barneys, and a beautifully detailed version by Gretchen Julius with just a touch of bling at Auto.
If you only follow one rule for fall accessories, it’s this: go for the drama. Chunky gems, statement pieces, and serious detailing are all here. Designers are taking a cue from eras past for this season, and the Art Deco style is just one of the many that we’re loving. Here are our picks:

Deck your arms in Deco drama from CC Skye and Janis Savitt with this stunning bracelets.

Simplified Deco style is perfect for a cocktail ring. Isharya, Alexis Bittar, and Juicy all get it right with these designs.

Taking a cue from Deco architecture, these earrings each have their own take on the style. Clockwise from left: Vanessa Montiel, CC Skye, Mallary Marks, and Bounkit for Vivre.
Sometimes, a girl’s just gotta shop:

We’re in the mood for rich fall tones, and this dress from Stella McCartney is just the fix we need. A chunky gold woven bracelet from Mawi is just what we need to add a little edge to our everyday ensembles. And those shoes? Well, really they need no explanation. Jimmy Choo python gladiators. Could they be any more perfect?
We won’t be winning any gold medals this year, but that won’t stop us from indulging in a little bling for ourselves! On the hunt for the perfect gold, silver and bronze, we found them all in one gorgeous shop - Ippolita.
The Gold:

If the polished shine doesn’t blind you, the diamonds will. Talk about a winner!
The Silver:

Simple in silver is the way to go. The wavy disc is Ippolita’s signature piece.
The Bronze:

Ok, so it’s not exactly bronze. Really, it’s just better. Smoky topaz in gold… hmmm, maybe coming in 3rd isn’t so bad after all.
We continue our summer must-haves with a little accessorizing…
Number 6: Blingin’ the Blues. Officially the color of the year, blue is back bigtime, so pick a statement piece in turquoise to add to your wardrobe! We also love a white hot bangle against tanned skin, and a dash of neon to set it all off…

Turquoise and diamonds make a fun statement in this ring from Ippolita. A simple white bangle from Anna Beck with gold tribal pattern is perfect day or night! Black pearls are punched up with neon in this necklace from Most Wanted Design by Carlos Souza. Bonus? Flip it either way to make it work for your ensemble.

Go for a statement piece with this stunning turquoise and gold necklace by Devon Leigh, or keep it simple with this deep blue acrylic ’stone’ set in brass from Kenneth Jay Lane. Take your pick from two shades of blue in this oversized cuff by Andrew Gn.
We first fell for Justin Giunta’s work last year when his combination of industrial commercial lighting with gorgeous vintage crystal and glass baubles gave him some real recognition in the art and interior world…

The contrast of materials created a seriously chic outcome, and it kicked off a career that has quickly made him sought after in another industry - fashion.
“In my work I am always drawing parallels between art history and modern design to explore themes of fine art and commercial design. The only difference between the two seems to be where you sell it.“

Justin’s jewelry line, Subversive Jewelry has brought him acclaim from many, and uses the same idea of mixing old and new to create glamorous, over-the-top pieces.

He jumped onto the scene this year with his fashion week debut in March, and hasn’t looked back since.
Between being tapped by Target last month to contribute to their successful designer series (in which he created the cuffs above), and consistently receiving more and more press time, Justin has officially been added to our list as one to watch.
