Fove Redefines Value

Unlike clothing, jewelry is something that can often become all the more precious — once it's driven off the proverbial lot. The sentiments and connection that are forged through wear only serve to increase the value of a much-loved item, allowing it to take on an extension of your own personality and experiences. It is this aspect of worth that German jewelry designer Frederica achieves with her line, Fove.

Not just a manifestation of its Urban Dictionary definition, each Fove piece is intentionally made from non-precious materials, like aluminum, steel, brass, and copper. Like a true artist, Frederica finds inspiration in places that others often overlook, and she crafts her works with artisan talent and an elegant yet forward sensibility. Her look is a mix of bold simplicity and subtle complexity, which results in statement pieces that seem organic, despite their modern appeal.

Each piece reflects a thoughtfulness that harmonizes the materials with the final designs — a shining example that true worth lies not in what is told to you, but what you know to be true.

'Tis the Season For Statement Jewelry

With Halloween behind us, it's time to look ahead to the holiday season by shifting our focus from costume parties to cocktail parties. It's now the time of year when social gatherings are at their peak, and you may be tempted to purchase a new selection of party dresses. In lieu of a shopping spree, dig out your little black dress and compliment it with statement jewelry.

Originating from sunny Florida, Danielle and Jodie Snyder have produced bold jewelry since 2008 with the launch of their label, Dannijo. Now residing in New York, the pair continues to work collaboratively at expanding their jewelry collections with eclectic yet elegant pieces. Always creative and rarely boring, Dannijo designs are chic concoctions of jewels and hardware. By softening rough elements with feminine touches, their line caters to both rock chicks and girly girls alike. With their Holiday Collection, the Snyder sisters offer an arrangement of quintessential Dannijo pieces that capture the spirit of the season. From sparkling Swarovski crystals to charming embellishments, each piece provides the right measure of festiveness. 

Investing in statement jewelry and alternating pieces with your LBD is an effortless way to prepare for your hectic holiday schedule — not to mention it's appropriate to wear year-round. So, as you work your way from party to party, be sure to sprinkle yourself with a dash of Dannijo before stepping out the door!
