Finger Lickin Good!

Thanks to the seventies coming hurtling back onto the fashion scene crystal jewellery is now adorning hands of the fashionistas world wide. I first got hooked when I read an article in V magazine about Vogue stylist Giorgio di Sant’Angelo, Veruschka, and her then-boyfriend, photographer Franco Rubartelli shooting in the Arizona desert. http://www.vmagazine.com/2010/03/giorgio-di-santangelo/  in the late sixties.The pictures were fantastic.




The trio created the most impressive looks with only bolts of fabric, fur pelts, and ropes but the jewellery was the best as they made it with stones found in the desert. I'd loved this article and the fashion story and around the same time I started seeing crystal jewellery everywhere

The trend is already big over seas. I love designers such as Vanessa Mooney (http://www.vanessmooney.com/), Dara Ettinger (http://www.darraettinger.com/) and Petra Class (http://www.petraclass.net/). Check out their sites as I presume they all ship to Aus.

Labels such as maniamania, damselfly, andrea and joen and Arnsdorf  have ensured the trend has now hit our australian waters.  Get on the look out and get involved
