Bold Jewelry

As was very evident at NYC Fashion Week, bold jewelry is huge right now and will continue to be well into Fall/Winter 09. 

The only rule?  The bigger, the better!  Some of my favorites include this piece by designer Candace Ang for Urban Outfitters.  It’s sort of tough and feminine at the same time with it’s mix of metal and pink frills.

This cuff from Accessories & Beyond is definitely eye catching yet still toned down enough to wear with just about anything.

These earrings from Free People are a nice change from your everyday gold hoops.

One of my favorite places to find bold statement jewelry online is Ebay.  I’ve scored some really unique finds over the years.  In the real world?  Try looking for Estate sales!
