Bond Ambition

Toujours Toi Jewelry

The name’s Egli. Nina Egli.

No, she’s not a Bond girl. She’s the Zurich-born designer of jewelry line Toujours Toi, but the inspiration for her latest collection is none other than Honey Ryder, the knife-wielding, bikini-rocking character played by Ursula Andress in Dr. No. The trinkets look like they were snapped up at a souvenir shop during a vacation in the tropics: Gorgeous turquoise and canary stones are paired with gold seashells, coral starfish, pearly-white seahorses, and dagger charms, and swung from earrings, bracelets, and necklaces.

See? You don’t have to leave your neighbor’s pool to look like you’ve been on an exotic island with glam secret agents.

Who knows? Maybe you’ll even foil a mad scientist’s sinister plot to take over the world.

Or just look hot trying.
