Subtle Safety

I read about this in a book, and it caught my attention because this summer I will be traveling around New York City on my own and I need to consider safety. I know that 9 times out of 10 the weapons people use to protect themselves end up getting used against them so I will probably not buy any thing like pepper spray. But this does not seem like the kind of thing that could be used against the wearer. It is designed by a jewelry company out in San Fransisco, RedStart Design. They are marketing it more as a way to remember to make safe choices rather than an actual weapon. Would you consider wearing this? I am not sure if I actually like the design or it, but the concept and function is interesting. How to you ensure your safety?

Pencil Perfect

How lovely is this necklace, I love how it makes you remember the beauty in the mundane. It is so sweet and simple. Yesterday I found a perfect little pencil shaving on my desk and I did not want to throw it away. That is when I remembered about this beautiful necklace I saw on some blog months ago. Here is the description:

"Bring out the artiste within! Handmade in sterling silver with love by Victoria Mason, the pencil sharpening pendant is also a fabulous gift for anyone who loves to draw, paint, write, or even just admire art." Find it here

Labled

I love these necklaces! They remind me of those ones you can buy inexpensively on the streets, but so much classier. I like the idea of putting your favorite city on it.

They are made by CatBird

Me Likey

I was shopping around my town and I found jewelry from this company Me & Ro. They have some of the most beautiful pieces I have seen in a long time. The jewelry that they design often has to do with religion and they even have a very nice collection of men's jewelry. Below are two of my favorite pieces from the website.
