For nearly three decades, designer Gerard Yosca has been creating innovative, trend-setting accessories with the same workmanship found in the vintage pieces of his mother’s and grandmother’s jewelry collections. His work has been featured in countless national publications, worn by top celebrities, and have graced the must-have lists of fellow costume jewelry junkies. (Personally, I’d love to own anything in the Palm Springs collection.)

Keep in touch with Gerard on Twitter and Facebook!

Behind the Baubles: ASHA by ADM

Ashley Dodgen McCormick, CEO & Creative Director, ASHA

Ashley Dodgen McCormick started her line in 2005, pulling inspiration from her time living abroad in Florence and Paris while earning her art history degree from Georgetown University. Focusing on top-quality craftsmanship, the artistry of Ashley’s pieces could compete with fine jewelry. I’m particularly drawn to the bone and white topaz pieces for their youthful elegance.

Shop the Highlights: Olivia earrings (my favorite) // Zodiac ring // Ravenna necklace // horn bangles // Else studs
