Alexander McQueen antique silver twin skull ring
We have always been swooned by Alexander McQueen’s amazing accessories collection. The latest turn-on from that sparkling pile of jewellery is this scary-looking twin skull ring (£120.00). With its glistening black evil eyes – courtesy of Swarovski’s magnificently dazzling crystals, this antique ring before our eyes gives off a hypnotic stare of death that is rather… stimulating! Dark, daring and dangerous, it is perhaps not a typical gift, but it definitely possesses the power of bewilderment that would surprise and marvel the recipient of this exquisite piece. Still not sure? Try me! Let me show you how to look death in its eye – sharp and painless.
Also available in antique gold with a poisonous purple skull from Alexander McQueen’s web store.

Neil Barrett's Jesus Chain
Whether it is the good old days or today, being religious is no crime. First, Jesus Christ – one of the most powerful religious figure in the world – conquered digital media with his popular twitter account. Now, it looks like he has all eyes set on fashion. New at The Corner is this incredibly cool Jesus Chain (EUR 365,00) from the one and only Neil Barrett. This pendant chain necklace, with its exquisite satin finish, brings religion to a new remarkable level in fashion by paying respect to the central figure of Christianity, who has touched us so deeply; while assisting us to look so god damn fine! Well… Holy Christians, let’s pray and let’s praise in style!

Ann Demeulemeester’s Pretty Prickly Predicament
Beautiful yet disturbing – Ann Demeulemeester’s epine black leather necklace (SEK 440,00) and leather thorn bracelet (SEK 1.676,00) are doomed to be worn and not wasted. Engraved with the Belgian designer’s signature style with a prickly motif, these pieces are dark yet mysteriously alluring. The bracelet, which is made of silver with a leather outer shell, is an easy piece to adapt to this season’s trendy looks for an indifferent touch in the small scale; while the necklace looks like a deadly thorn in our flesh. Well… The more fatal it looks in our face, the more we love it!
Available at Mrs H.

Lanvin's extravagant Stanislas Earring
Add a sense of fun and style to your final look with Lanvin’s adorable Stanislas earrings. Shaped by delicate twigs of shiny brass to form the silhouette of a playful little poster child for endearing cuteness, then, adorned with exquisite crystals and red coral beading; this pair of earrings glows with subtlety, class and extravagant refinement. Yet, its tribal influence creates a remarkably raw touch that makes the entire thing seem primitive in the way that it connects no-time-to-waste city life into the full embrace of Mother Nature. At ~€543.00, this lovely doll-shaped pair, for me, is definitely a timeless piece worth purchasing.

Sterling Silver Double Twig Cuff From Elizabeth and James
Let’s be honest! When I first heard that the stylish Olsen Twins are dabbing their hands into fashion design, I went “uh-oh!” – not quite sure how I would have to control my “D’oh!” of disappointment, when I see their work. Well… Perhaps I don’t need to worry about that anymore, because just like the twins themselves, their designs are actually oh-so-lovely! On my fashion radar, we spotted the Double Twig Cuff Bracelet ($USD 250) from Mary Kate and Ashley’s fashion line Elizabeth and James. The oh-so-gorgeous cuff is gently sculpted and formed by an intricate lacy web of sterling silver twigs, which gives it a unique character and charm. Made by the incredible jewelry designer and sculptor Robert Lee Morris, this exquisite piece is certainly the most-wanted bracelet of the season.
Available at Bloomingdales, Neiman Marcus and Saks Fifth Avenue.

Alexander McQueen's skull-motif is simply striking!
Skull! Skull! Oh, skull! It’s scary, but oh… we just love to play with fire! When it comes to this bloodcurdling subject matter, we certainly cannot go past the mighty king and queen of this Gothic greatness – the British designer Alexander McQueen. Available on his wonderful website and in stores now is an exquisite jewellery selection, which exhibits a touch of our love for the six letter word – d.a.n.g.e.r. Presented in the picture above from top left (clockwise) are red double wrap skull charm bracelet, silver skull ring, skull crystal drop earring, red punk heart cuff, icon charm bracelet, gold skull ring and fork and spoon drop earrings. My pick from the pack is definitely the skull ring! I just love the Swarovski crystal stuffing in the eye. So rich, so exquisite! Living on the dark side? Don’t say it. Live it, wear it!
