The Big Want

As you probably gathered by now, I love animal-inspired jewelry. Owls, big cats, snakes...you name it. There is sort of a 70s feel to it but also much further back - sort of ancient Rome and something sort of royal and medieval about it (amulets, shields, crests). Whatever time period these pieces bring you back to, there is something really powerful and special about them. These jaguar earrings are no different. The carefully placed crystals give off the appearance of diamonds and emeralds and seem awfully luxe. And not to reference La Zoe but they remind me of her killer Cartier Panthere ring, which is possibly the most amazing thing ever.

Jaguar Post Earrings, $158 (available at Elizabeth Cole).

So cute, don't know if I could pull them off... but with the right outfit! Adorable.

I'm kind of thinking like a bow blouse, some great jeans, a vest or little jacket...something sort of 70s and Zoe-esque, no?
Glad you like them! Thanks!
