It takes very little to shock the uptight blue bloods in your clan.

Nonetheless, you’re running out of options.

Joining the circus is out of the question (sawdust allergy). So is the State Fair (carnies scare you). And forget the motorcycle gang (leather chafes something awful).

A little Julieri Jewelry might solve your identity woes. Just slip on the whimsical Flamenco, a triple-strand 14-karat gold and garnet necklace, and watch panic ensue at cousin Muffy’s blush-only wedding. A pair of sultry Asian-inspired earrings made of white gold with hand-wrapped pearls and chalcedony will create a stir at Uncle Skip’s refined Autumn Ball. Wear the sexy Rave (wavy 14-karat gold earrings with smoky topaz) to cousin Eugenia’s straight-laced cotillion and ruffle some stiff feathers.

Each handmade design is a perfect way to show your traditionally accessorized family that your style’s just a little bit different.

Because every rebel’s got to have a cause.
