January jewelry...Birdhouse

In what is apparently going to be dubbed jewelry month at StyleShifter, we will round out this last day of January with one more option! Birdhouse Jewelry, available on Etsy and at the Brooklyn Flea market, includes an array of fun casual options.

Our favorites are the state charms, which make fun and unique gifts. For $5, you can get a silver or gold plated charm of any state in the US. Another fun gift is the custom inscription pendant. For $20, you can have front and back inscribed with the message of your choice.




You can shop Birdhouse on Etsy at http://www.etsy.com/shop/amyetsy, or check out the brand's website: http://www.birdhousejewelry.com/index.html.

So, to recap January's jewels:
For beautifully crafted intricate adornment handmade in Mexico, read our post about Virgins, Saints & Angels here.
For cute, affordable, customizable Etsy artist Taryn's jewelry, check out the review here.
Or re-read the above about Birdhouse!

See you at NYFW!

Taryn's Treasures

With Valentine's Day coming up, who isn't thinking about jewelry?! In fact, with Fashion Week soon approaching we could all use some flash for the fetes and photogs!

Our favorite cute and affordable choice is Jewlery by Taryn. Taryn is yet another Etsy treasure - an artist hand-crafting all her pieces and available to customize! We just got the necklace pictured below, but got a version that is customized in red - <3 for a fun and easy day to night option! And whether a gift or not, each bauble feels like a present as Taryn packages each one its a customized gift box. 

Best of all, my StyleSetters get a discount on http://www.etsy.com/shop/jewelrybytaryn! Enter code Styleshifter at checkout on Etsy for 10% off your order! 







(Of course, you can always check out Jewelry by Taryn on Facebook or @jewelrybytaryn.)

Stay tuned for Fashion Week coverage over the next few weeks!

Once Upon a Time...by VSA Designs

Once Upon a Time...

Our inner princess reveled as we adorned ourselves with intricately crafted crowns and tiaras.

Last night we were treated to a special viewing of Virgins Saints & Angels new collection. All handmade in Mexico, necklaces, earrings, rings and regal headwear sparkled.

Our favorite was a cocktail ring with a lovely translucent sea-hued face rimmed by its delicately detailed setting. It also slightly made us want to gaze into the stone, stylish fortune teller style, in the hopes of divining the future. Check out part of the the glittering collection below:


In fact, now that we think of it, maybe StyleShifter will start a movement for Tiara Tuesdays!
