CITYist

When we hear that first crunch of of leaves beneath our heels, an internal instinct prompts us to immediately do two things: begin an exclusive diet of anything “pumpkin-spiced” and switch our wardrobes to earth tones. Brazilian jewelry designer Daniela Zagnolli is helping us indulge in the latter impulse with her Fall 2012 collection of thick cuffs and bib necklaces in rich shades of mahogany, dark chocolate and chestnut. Most of the handmade designs feature precise cut outs to form intricate butterflies or delicate abstract patterns that will layer perfectly over crisp, collared blouses. Zagnolli also offers an eco-friendly collection featuring simple elastic band necklaces and bracelets with recycled wood and metal accents. We can totally see ourselves enjoying a pumpkin-spiced latte in Zagnolli’s lace leather cuff and brown lace leather necklace. Scope out the entire collection here.
