We have our first of many Holiday parties coming up this weekend and we're just flat out jolly about it! Tis the season for fancy party dresses, bold red lips, and teetering about on icy streets in high high heels! But for us, making a statement is all in the details. Pairing an unusual manicure with beautifully uncommon jewelry makes for an unexpected choice amidst all the typical bling and sparkle of the Holiday season. Enter local Chicago designer Laura and her line, Hunter Gatherer. Laura's one of a kind handmade pieces skirt the line between wearable everyday jewelry and high art. We love the bold statement these rings make with their simple and haunting designs.
Laura describes Hunter Gatherer as "celebrating the tangled heritage of the metropolitan by telling its tales and looking to our ancestors. Hunter Gatherer adorns the urban nomad with limited edition designs inspired by ethnographic research to complement an elegant minimalist wardrobe."
