Pretty  and beautifully crafted jewelry is always interesting and always catches our eye , but when  designers choose to infuse their creation with meanings and tenets of history that have had a great impact on society, Highsnobette had to take notice. Ken Leung  and Dana Chin of Bside recently launched their “Rights Collection” using the numbers of   4 major cases that have dramatically changed our society:

Romer vs. Evans (Protection against discrimination by  sexual orientation), Leser vs. Garnett ( 19th Amendment women’s right to vote), Brown vs. Board of Ed. (Upholds 14th amendment do desegregate schools), Loving vs. Virginia  (Legalizes interracial marriage). On the next page a closer look at Rights Collection, and a preview of other hot pieces we fell for.

Designed in 2005  by Phillipe Starck the Bedside Gun lamp is now available at Moss.18 kt gold plated aluminium, a definite conversation piece.

I have been kind of obsessed with this tie-dye scarf  from Sunshine and shadow for a while, and since it’s like  fall in June lately in NY , I  was able to justify getting it. It’s available at net-a-porter but if you are in NYC head to The Happy Place on 26 Broadway in Williamsburg where Sunshine and Shadow and lots of other  Highsnobette faves , like Samma , Aesa , Electric Feathers and many more are selling their designs until june 21,2009. Read what the NYtimes had  to say about the great design collective here.

A definite classic, The Christian  Louboutin Pigalle , in patent leather a modern icon of sexy footwear.Via np. Luv! Detailed view on the flip.

When I read a while back that Beth Ditto was  going to design a collection for Evans , I was very  curious to see, if she would be be  given the freedon  to inject the  same pizzaz and unapologetic feel of her on stage persona to the looks created. From the sneak peak on jezebel looks like  she did just that.   A few looks of  Beth Ditto for Evans on the next page . Launching July 9 , 2009.

Can we give a high five to Rihanna’s  stylist and give RihRhi the award for wearing edgy fashion like no one else among her peers ? Detailed view on the next page.ViaRD
