india's initials.

When I was flying back from DC on Sunday, I had a stack of magazines to keep me company. I've come to love Marie Claire and count it among my monthly favorites. In their "fashion alert" in the June issue, they featured the beautiful new jewelry line from India Hicks. If you're not familiar with this beauty, India is the god-daughter of Prince Charles. She booked her first modeling job with Ralph Lauren and has plenty to boast about in addition to her pretty face. 

It's no secret that I'm a fan of sporting monograms and initials. If my jewelry budget were a bit larger, {ok, a lot larger!}, I'd love to don one of these beautiful creations. Inspired by her father and famous interior designer, David Hicks, her pieces are sure to be instant classics.

I may be partial, but I positively adore the A necklace {just under the word reality by the arrow} and the V necklace {seen in the top middle of the picture}. I also love the tiny touch of diamonds in the gold necklace...see them?!

So, do these necklaces get your yay or nay?

If you ever read this, India, you get a HUGE yay from little ol' me :) I love the idea of 
tying family history into a product you put your whole heart behind. The results are gorgeous! 
Have a fantastic Tuesday, all! xoxo {av}

  2. i think this is a really unique way to wear ones initials - i love it! i like the a's too (although it is only my middle initial.) they look like little eiffel towers. i would definitely get one if i had the money.

  4. They are sooo gorgeous. I really like the gold H necklace- too bad I don't have an H in my name! I'd love to replace my signature nameplate necklace with one of these.

  7. I love the monogram necklaces - what makes them so great is that at first glance you'd never assume they were monogram!

  12. Oh how I wish my jewelry budget is nonexistent! Would love to add one of these bad boys to my very small collection. I wear an "M" necklace and I do have an "M" charm for my bracelet.. there's something so very personal about initials.

    P.S. I really liked your "About Me" description..

  13. The necklaces look great, how big does your budget have to be to buy them though lol, becuase if it's huge then I don't think I will be able to get a single piece :)

  16. How gorgeous! Of course, I'm a big fan of the Loewe's quadruple L which is a little curvier than Ms Hick's, but I wouldn't turn down a trinket with either!
