* The Short List: Things We Love

Posted on January 20th, 2009 by Joyce Tota. Filed under The Short List.


Our favorites this week are monochromatic (well, with a touch of red) but speak in other ways. Vocal pieces such as Rachel Comey’s Bradbury Wedge shout while others whisper (Kate Spade’s Have Courage Bangle has a private message for its wearer).

1/ Rachel Comey Bradbury Wedge available at Totakelo.com

2/ Online shopping can be a lonely affair. Totokaelo.com’s solution is the members only online store of Seattle based boutique Impulse. With a roster that includes Acne, Tom Scott and United Bamboo, the site expands social networking ideas and allows users to leave comments on pieces, creating a community shopping atmosphere.

3/ Antique Buttercup Set Diamond Ring available at Doyle & Doyle. Solitaire diamond engagement rings are always teetering on the border of being too loud or uninspired. This ring avoids both with a balanced combination of rough and delicate with a unique setting and an etched band.

4/ Comme des Garçons Alphabet Wallet available at Aloha Rag.

5/ Antique drawer knobs. Find similar ones at Anthropologie.

6/ Kate Spade Have Courage Bangle available at Kate Spade. The graphic enamel bracelet has an unexpected message etched on the inside, for times of intimate resolve.
