I’ve blogged, more than once, about wearable accessories that are crafted with words and quotes. In fact, one of my favourite jewelry pieces would be the Disney Couture collection of memorable sayings and quotes on a necklace or a ring. So when I saw these pieces, I just had to blog about it…

A positive message to engage creativity!

Simple message: LOL! It's healthy...

Slow down & enjoy your journey...

A message I've learnt in the recent years!

J'taime. I love you, in French! Sweet...

Proclaim our beauty to the world!
Jessica Elliot is a jewellery designer who believed that her creativity was mainly genetic. “My mom is an artist, my stepfather a photographer and painter, my dad a musician, my sister is a chef—the list keeps going. For me, finding an interesting chain, mixing gold and silver in an unusual way, using delicate stones with bold shapes—these fill a creative need for me that just kind of happened accidentally. I didn’t grow up thinking I wanted to be a jewelry designer”. How cool is that!

Jessica Elliot's wearable words make me smile! :)
Another cool fact: her jewellery pieces have been seen on Desperate Housewives, Access Hollywood, and Friends – among other famous shows. Lucky girl!
Swarovski blings up Philips’ Active Crystals gadgets

I could never really understand how a certain brand rises up above the others. Like, when I think of crystals, I’d think of Swarovski. In fact, the name Swarovski is somewhat synonym to quality crystals. Many big brand names have teamed up with Swarovski to produced limited edition items encrusted with these special gems. This one got me excited.

Philips & Swarovski - Active Crystals range!
Philips joined forces with Swarovski to create the Active Crystals line, combining fashion accessories with useable gadgets such as USB necklaces and headphones. Some of the creations include heart-shaped USB sticks, headphones that scream out “bling-bling”, and other pretty gadgets…

Heart-shaped USB stick that's too pretty to be hidden!

Philips' headphones now with Swarovski blings
But pretty isn’t all that they offer. In fact, the thing that got me head over heels is this. I first saw them whilst window shopping in Selfridges at Oxford St, London – and I fell in love. Naughty Raymond & Happy Laura robots – or so they are called – would make me wear my USB sticks around my neck without feeling all-too-geeky (not that there is anything wrong with that!). How can you not love these adorable and cute gadgets by Philips & Swarovski?

Naughty Raymond. Too adorable...

Who says necklaces have to be purely for fashion? This robot is a USB stick!

Carry Happy Laura around & you're bound to be happy!

Philips & Swarovski sure know how to make products that stand out!
Kawaii… I’m sure there are plenty more of awesome USB memory key designs out there, but these ones would rate pretty high on my list.

Another jewellery pieces to love: Dior Couture’s Oui collection. Oui, as most of you would know, is the French word for “yes”. I love these beautiful pieces as they are cute and simple, yet still elegant and contain a great meaning. Whether it is buying for yourself or for a loved one, make sure you check out Dior’s Oui collection…

Hang this little beauty on your phone...

Say "yes" with this ring! Oui...

Save the best for last: subtle "Oui" around the stone! Love it...
Yup – or should I say Oui – yet another jewellery pieces that I will not be able to afford!
