Rubber bands by Silly Bandz are made of silicon and are die molded into fun shapes: Harry the Catterpillar; Igor the Spider; Betty Jo the Butterfly and more. My personal favorite is  Speedy the Snail!

They look and behave like normal (albeit colorful) rubber bands when stretched. But when removed from whatever they are holding, they instantly spring back into their original shapes! Flick them at your co-workers, use them for wrapping presents or horde them all for yourself. What a great gift for students or parties.

Spoil me fashion is trying to find the diamonds in the rough – those designers who make funky and hip or stylish and chic top quality jewelry but who are “undiscovered” so to speak and mix them with established jewelry designers for a nice blend of fashion jewelry. Here are some pieces that caught our eye!

We are back in shape! Jewelry shape, of course. From our wonderful, long but also well-deserved holiday we bring you fresh jewelry ideas and a lot of love. This first post makes a perfect match with the passing summer days:  a pair of nice rings to wear as couple jewelry.

Mm-mm… almost reliving the romance.

Oh, yes. The beautiful rings:

Janet Setter creates unique one-of-a-kind pieces lend themselves to an organic, earthy element that stems from the designer’s keen interest in the outdoors.

Although pieces can be duplicated, each piece is unique and no piece is the exactly the same.  Primarily working in silver, Janet has began to introduce other precious metals such as copper and 14kt gold and semi-precious stones to bring instant flare that makes any piece pop.

Currently, Janet sells exclusively at shows at Bloomingdale’s and through her e-commerce website, JanetSetterJewelry.com.

… is just what you need to add the finishing touch to any casual look.

In Silver also…

Leaf motif necklace

Roses are Red, Violets are Blue and of course, and Lavender Agate is Purple! Yes, yes, I know that agate is not a flower. But purple agate is nevertheless just as beautiful.

Today’s color is Lavender and the favourite stone is Agate. Four photos, a selection made durring a “exhausting” web search, are the purple Stars of this Post. A bracelet, earrings, necklace, pin and a ring. Do you have more?

What about these jewelry?

I have visited Opaleen.com today and I was surprised by the first picture that greeted me. So, naturally I took the challenge to see all their products. ..

Fresh and exquisite designs all crafted in gold and silver, quite affordable and full of color and vitality. I browsed curiously throughout ALL their jewelry and I can only describe it as: “Summer and Happiness”

The same goes for the necklaces and rings!

This summer  must begin with colors. Here’s  necklace made of polymer clay and golden wire cable.

Perfect with a flowery summer dress …

What do you think about these accessories?

These pieces are designed to be used as either pendants or keychains. You can find more, with a simple browsing. Anything from sweet, chic, totally tastefully to unique. Enjoy !

Not only do we like Teresa Saputo’s jewelry, but we applaud her social engagement into donating 10 per cent of all proceeds towards charities supporting public education initiatives. I am very fond of this kind of attitude since it seems less selfish of me to spend money just for myself.

Let’s have a look at her enchanting collection of jewelry sprinkled with precious colored gemstones.

Another really cool thing is “Keep the Peace”. Teresa offers to transform gold jewelry with sentimental value, but not exactly fitting your taste, into something new. Reshaped jewelry with the same sentimental value.
