Love Beads

Alphabet Necklaces by Peggy Li

Love to flaunt your stuff?

Your handbag.
Your one-of-a-kind jeans.
Your significant other.

Why not? We recently spotted Brad Pitt wearing an adorable beaded alphabet necklace. It didn’t say “Brad.” It said “Jen.” Is Miss Aniston keeping her man on a tight leash? Who knows, but what a good idea! (The necklace, not the possessive act.)

Name beads are the newest and most creative way to show your love and friendship. If you’re feeling crafty, make your own. Those who prefer the custom-made touch can order from Peggy Li, who makes necklaces just like Pitt’s. Can’t commit to one name? Any word will do. The jewelry is so affordable you can buy a necklace for every mood. (Fun. Flirty. Busy.)

You can still shout your honey’s name from the rooftops. But it’s a little nicer to keep it quietly tied around your neck.

Just make sure to seal it with a double knot.
