    Zachary Pryor's Unique Jewelry Is Love At First Sight

    image

    New York artist Jesse Utt travels to various spaces to showcase a spunky and shameless collection of wall-hanging artwork -- and makes jewelry-making look like child's play. As attractive as his artwork is on canvas, it's his Zachary Pryor accessories line that's so beguiling, we'd never want to take off. His earrings and necklaces resemble a scrapbook collage of trunk collectibles that are a perfect way to add crafty edge to your style. Metal chains, color contrast and charms all lend a hand in shaping the tasteful trinkets that have found their way to the necks and wrists of art-loving A-listers like Mary-Kate Olsen and Avril Lavigne. Jesse, under the trade name Zachary Pryor (a name that covertly pays homage to his grandmother and plays off a name that he could've been donned at birth) has made wearing art -- and making a statement -- easy. While his past works feature canvas-mimicking illustrations, his most recent follow either a more industrial style that is loud and evocative, or a fierce, whimsical style with bright feathers. Catch some of the lust-worthy eye candy in this slideshow and fall in love with the originality of these essentially one-of-a-kind Zachary Pryor accessories!

    Hot In The Hive: Alexis Bittar Skinny Lucite Bangle!

    Ida Hsiang on Oct 23, 2009 6:23 PM PDT
    We all know what lucite is, although many of us don't yet own anything made from this material. Lucite is an acrylic, fiber-glass, plastic type that gained popularity through furniture designers trying to capture a more modern, space-age feel in their home designs. Poor lucite has always been seen as the cheap and easy cousin to other more sophisticated substances and causes most of us to immediately picture acrylic nails and the generously clunky and high heels of exotic dancers. However, lucite is actually a material that can be manipulated easily into something beautiful and unique. Jewelry designer Alexis Bittar puts a new spin on this misunderstood material and takes it from visions of trashy to visions of classy. His lucite bangles come in a range of translucent colors and varying widths, simple and chic or embellished with gorgeous glittering accents, and can all be seen at the Alexis Bittar website!


    Price: $225
    Who Found It: idabone was first to add the Alexis Bittar Skinny Lucite Bangle to the Hive.

    It's all about making a personal statement through jewelry these days. Chunky bracelets, multi-layered necklaces and huge earrings help add character and individual style to sleek outfits, but many times, these gorgeous works of wearable art cost more than we're willing to shell out. The great thing about statement jewelry is that it's eye-catching and highly memorable, but the downside is also how memorable it can be. Sure, you could wear your statement piece every day, and you'd certainly get your money's worth, but people would probably begin to notice and you might get bored of the piece yourself! Check out the slideshow for our favorite standout pieces and scoop up a few to add to your outfits- at under $50 each, you can shift your thinking to style statements, not bank statements!

    WhatsWear Has Discovered A Way To Tweet In Gold And Diamonds

    Twitter just became a whole lot more relevant to me. For today I learned that Twitter can now be something I wear around my neck... in gold.. and diamonds. Survival of the Hippest is a hot new accessories line inspired by the same social networking system that caused Miley Cyrus to rap and LL to fight even more publicly with Samantha Ronson. Using your TwitterName (or "hashtag" comment if you know what the hell this is), SOTH creates beautiful jewelry -- fairly reminiscent of the name necklaces made popular by Carrie Bradshaw. They are custom-made out of sterling silver, 14k gold and [drool] diamonds, and can be placed on a necklace, a key chain, a bracelet, an anklet or a pin. As SOTH pointed out, wearing your Twitter ID around a visible body part will helpfully point you out to your virtual friends, who they note "may not recognize you from your proper name or tiny Twitter picture"... seriously, a SOTH piece isn't just fashionable, it is your gilded token to making actual flesh-and-blood friends! Also, we must mention these necklaces and bracelets work perfectly as a fun layering piece or as a unique present for your friend who has everything. You can even show these Twitterific pieces to your grandchildren while explaining the Twitter phenomenon. Think about it, they'll most likely be vintage in just a couple decades! When you're not busy tweeting, don't forget to visit our friends at WhatsWear for more unique design finds!
