Adding this one to our list of favorites!
A few weeks ago, I was introduced to another talented jewelry designer by Johanna of Beso Handbags. I’ll admit…I’m a sucker for sentimental pieces, so I couldn’t resist this designer’s custom design portfolio. In fact, I’ve already given my husband strict instructions on which one he should order! But we aren’t the only ones who love Lisa Leonard Designs. There is a list a mile long of other fashion editors who are following this hot designer. Lisa Leonard creates these pieces from her studio north of Los Angeles. We caught up with Lisa to get the scoop:

Great Find! Alizabeth O Designs
If delicate, feminine jewelry is your style, you’re going to love this new designer! Elizabeth is the design mind behind Alizabeth O Designs, a fun and flirty line of jewelry made from high quality materials including semi-precious and precious gemstones. What struck me about Elizabeth was that her personality comes through so clearly in her designs. She describes herself as liking to “stand out without really standing out”. ..which is exactly what I think her designs do.

It’s “Not Just Any Old Day” by Michele
My family has a beautiful silver serving set passed down by my grandmother’s family. (get this! My grandmother’s maiden name was Silver and her brother’s name was Sterling…no joke!) Somehow my parents ended up with this set and it will be a small contest to see who gets to keep Sterling Silver’s sterling silver in the family. So when I met Michele, I could appreciate her sentimental ideals which led her to create a new heirloom item (made from real sterling silver) for the very special days in your life.
These items are breathtaking! The photos don’t even do them justice. [...]

Am I the only one who didn’t know silver could be made from recycled items we use everyday? Julie prides herself on using 100% recycled silver (which comes from a variety of sources such as X-rays, film stock, CT films and some electronics)! Wow! But what drew me to Julie’s line the most was the simple beauty in each charm and that fact that each is customized to create a unique piece [...]
