Milk and Jewelry

Soon the leaves will turn, the air will chill and fall will once again descend on New York. For some, autumn is synonymous with bobbing for apples, haystacks and pumpkin pie. For me, it is the season I throw open the door to my bulging closet and sullenly note that I have nothing to wear. But instead of fortifying my wardrobe with items for which I feel fleeting affection, this season I’m going to accessorize with Milk.

And I don’t mean bringing back the mustache.

I mean the laser-cut products from the ingenious Japanese jewelry maker’s original collection, Chaluette. Simultaneously simple and intricate, the jewelry’s unique way of casting shadows on the body lends an added dimension to the stale clothes cluttering your room. The distinctive necklaces, earrings and bracelets currently highlighted during Felissimo’s accessory week mean that the muumuu in the back of your closet—the one you got a stoop sale 15 years ago, have taken on every vacation and refuse to throw away despite the fact that you have never worn it—can finally be debuted. Because not only does Milk’s jewelry allow you to add silhouetted intrigue without a tattoo that will trigger your mother’s disapproval, this jewelry will make a burlap sack look sexy. Perfect for both those who approach shopping with calculation and rationality and for people with a swollen closet and collection of muumuus like me. Only one question remains this season. Got milk?
