Good Looks: We’ve Got it Made

Don’t you love it when you feel like you’ve got it made? In that spirit, we’ve got all eyes on a certain local jewelry company for the latest in our ongoing San Francisco Style Series.

For this original photo shoot (you won’t see it anywhere other than SF Indie Fashion), photographer and stylist Erin Haight dolled up model Samara in bling from designers Abigail Rivamonte and Debbie Sheen’s Made Jewelry.

We love these pieces for their ability to be versatile, yet oh-so-far from boring.

You’ll find the latest from Made Jewelry available online at Moxsie, as well as in local shops such as Acrimony and Isso. Looking for a specific piece? You can always email info (at) madejewelry (dot) com to order.

Styling and photography by Erin Haight; photo editing by David Cammack; Model, Samara.

All fashion-minded eyes may be on New York this week, but there’s still much to love right here in good ‘ole SF. A few examples:

The Princess Project has kicked off its 2010 dress drive. Check here for Bay Area drop-off locations and stay tuned for upcoming information about additional events.

The Brooklyn Circus brings something for the ladies to the Fillmore shop – for the very first time. Now in store, you’ll find the elephant earrings shown here. Even better, they’re handmade and exclusively available in San Francisco.

San Francisco native Patrik Ervell impresses Anna Wintour at New York Fashion Week. Via 7×7 Glamwatch.

Speaking of San Francisco natives and New York Fashion Week, Metier has the scoop on the mayhem outside the Alexander Wang show on Saturday.

Gold & Citrus just released its latest collection of delectable baubles. Dubbed Show Some Skin, it features feathers and lots of gold.

If you’re looking for spring dresses, Simply Chic has a slew of new styles priced under $80.

Today only, you can enter to win a dress from Amanda Archer, a once-local designer who’s moved on to Portland (and soon, Chicago from there, we hear). It’s a great chance to own one of this independent designer’s feminine dresses.

The Seventh Heart declares that comfort is the new luxury.

SF Unzipped reminds us that we really need to go see the Cartier & America exhibit on view at the Palace of the Legion of Honor.

We tend to agree with The Finer Dandy that Kell on Earth may be just what Bravo needs most right now.
