Brass Funky

Olga Prieto Jewelry

You’ve never met a conversation you didn’t like — a fact evidenced by your penchant for hijacking the discussions of others.

Insolent? The proper word is brassy, thanks.

And that just might explain your obsession with Olga Prieto, a Spanish designer who kicks plenty of brass. Molding the metal into magnificence, she hammers out a line that shines without being too flashy.

You’ll want to discuss every accessory with great care, from her bold, adjustable rings and cuffs to her long looped necklaces. And though occasionally she switches to silver or adds in other materials (a feather here, an onyx stone there), it’s all done with such subtlety that the entire collection remains totally cohesive.

So whether you choose to wear some dangly earrings or just a slim set of bracelets, your taste will speak for itself.

That is, if you’ll let it.
