Although I am one to shriek at the site of a spider (and most often yell for my roommate to kill it for me), I think Bottega Veneta's line of neon beetle baubles is crawling with a sort of sophisticated grade school charm. I can imagine the sterling silver scarab beetle bangle being the modern woman's new-age friendship bracelet. And for $360, this is a damn good friend indeed.
So, recently, I guess I've been on a bit of an accessories kick and have found myself trying my luck at eBay to hunt down some Tom Binns originals. For now, I'll just dream of finding one of his gold cuffs nestled among a pile of vintage jewelry at a secondhand shop - a veritable treasure hiding among the rubble. Check out these pieces at Net-A-Porter...
