There is no denying that Brooklyn is one of the sexiest boroughs in New York.  Manhattan–especially Downtown–has lost most of its edge and spontaneity but, some parts of Brooklyn  still have that special off-beat mix  of coziness, artistic expression, heritage and multi-culturalism that makes it a favorite of those in the know. Pamela Love recently shared some of her favorite spots in Brooklyn like the Brooklyn Flea on Lafayette with Nylon magazine:

“I spend my summer weekends here. I’ve found so many great pairs of vintage boots and motorcycle jackets. I’m running out of room in my apartment, so I usually only pick up small things, though I did find a great desk there once. The food is really good too.”

A stunning use of shapes in this lust worthy cuff by Pamela Love, which landed at Net-a-Porter this week. We just want to wear one on each arm to channel our inner Superwoman powers.

Pamela Love is known for her outlandish, raw and edgy jewellery and she has kept up her notoriously high standards with her Spring 2011 collection. Taking inspiration from indigenous tribes of Africa and India the collection concentrates on minimalism with structure and form. Each piece is a bold statement sure to liven up any outfit as well as doubling up as a weapon (in self defence of course!) Photos by: Ryan Koopmans, via Refinery29.AK.

PurpleDiary is collaborating with New-York-based jewelry designer Pamela Love to create a necklace and ring. Both will be available for purchase at PurpleBoutique.
