Liz Law Featured on Boticca.com

I sell my jewelry on a London-based site called Boticca.com.  It's a really special site that features various independent accessory designers from all over the globe.  I am delighted to be featured as designer of the week.  Boticca dedicated their home page to my line and is also offering 30% off my pieces this week only.  Check out the video we made for the site as well as the Boticca home page copied below.

Treasure Hunting

I had the pleasure of attending the Rose Bowl flea market this past Sunday, one of the largest and most famous flea markets around.  I build the pieces in my  Deja Vu collection around exotic treasures, so I was on a search for rare vintage components as well as some unique display materials for my shows.  Entering this world of countless tokens of bygone days is a magical and somewhat overwhelming experience.  With so much to see, I had to be very judicious in my purchasing and make sure not to get too swept away in the magic of the flea market.  It's easy for something to look fabulous in the context of the flea market and then turn out to just feel weird and out of place in other environments.  That being said, I very carefully selected some gorgeous pieces for repurposing, including a signed vintage super chunky gold necklace I plan on adorning with some interesting charms and pendants as well as a maltese cross from c. 1930.  I look forward to reinventing these treasures with my own little spin on them for today's stylish lady.  I also have a few new finished pieces made from vintage components that I will be adding to my Deja Vu collection soon.  Also, be sure to see many of my vintage infused one-of-a-kind and limited edition necklaces at the new Hidden Boutique in the  Jeanie Madsen Gallery in Santa Monica.  

The Hidden Boutique: Last Week's Unveiling and Upcoming Trunk Show!

The "Hidden Boutique" Unveiling was a blast!!  The space is so nice and well-done, with a curtain dividing the boutique space in the back with the Jeanie Madsen Art Gallery in the front.  The whole thing, of course, is backdropped by the beautiful Pacific Ocean.  The boutique is selling clothing designed by the gallery's amazing owner and namesake, Jeanie Madsen, shoe art by Noel Hagman, and Liz Law jewelry- with a heavy focus on my one-of-kind and limited edition pieces.

The boutique is now open to the public and will be hosting a Trunk Show and Meet the Artists Event on Tuesday evening from 5-9.  The night will feature complimentary wine and cheese as well as a raffle.  Come for the art, jewelry, clothes, and shoes though!!!

One-of-a-Kind Pieces to be featured at "The Hidden Boutique" at the Jeanie Madsen Gallery

My one-of-a-kind statement necklaces might just be my favorite pieces to make.  Often made of rare and/or vintage components, these pieces carry so much charm and personality.  I really see them as works of art that you happen to be able to wear around your neck.  It makes perfect sense that an art gallery would  want to carry them.  The Jeanie Madsen Gallery on scenic Ocean Avenue in Santa Monica will be unveiling "The Hidden Boutique" this Saturday, May 22.  Featured pieces will be my one-of-a-kind and limited edition necklaces as well as earrings, shoe art by Noel Hagman, and clothing by Jeanie Madsen.  The exclusive preview will be from 7-9 and RSVP is required for entry (jeanie@jeaniemadsengallery.com).  I hope to see you there!

"Squared" Necklace Auctioned at Star-Studded Red Tie Affair

I got to attend the Annual Red Cross Red Tie Affair at the Fairmont Hotel in Santa Monica this weekend. I donated my “Squared” necklace and some event appropriate earrings made of a red crystal cross on a silver fleur de lis for the silent auction. I also volunteered as a red carpet escort. The night featured a delicious dinner, live auction, and a speech by guest of honor Jada Pinkett-Smith for her work as a doctor on the hit TV series “Hawthorne.” The star-studded event also had in attendance Will Smith, Josh Duhamel, Fergie, and Buzz Aldrin- just to name a few. That’s enough name-dropping out of me (sorry)- but I have to admit, it was pretty exciting to be up close with all these big name celebs. It seems like there have been an unusually high number of natural disasters occuring lately, and any attention and fundraising that the celebrities of the Red Tie Affair can bring to such a wonderful organization that provides desperately needed disaster relief is a great thing.

BIG smiles from the ladies next to the man himself- Will Smith!

Liz Law Jewelry in Ad in Seventeen

I was very excited to learn that my jewelry was used in photos for a full page hair color ad used in May’s issue of Seventeen Magazine. I styled all the jewelry on Kelly Eden for this shoot with photographer Jennifer Erickson. I love how Splat hair care uses the adjectives “extreme, shocking, expressive, beautiful” for their tag line. I don’t so much strive to be extreme and shocking, but expressive and beautiful are definitely key parameters within which I design.

Kelly wears my one-of-a-kind and sold out pieces “Heirloom” and “HerStory” on the left picture, along with the inline and available for purchase “Laced” piece draped every so elegantly across her chest. You can also make out “Coastal” laid out on the ground amongst all the little crystals. The fabulous image on the right features the “Slave” necklace and always popular “Classic Onyx” earrings (in fact I am wearing mine as I type!) which are both inline and available for purchase.
