Twilight-Inspired Jewelry

This summer, I took a trip to Cabo San Lucas with my family.  I wanted something to read on the beach while I was there and had heard a lot of buzz about Twilight.  A week and 498 pages later, and I was hooked!

As soon as I got back to L.A., I did nothing but read. I devoured the rest of the series (New Moon, Eclipse, and Breaking Dawn) in one week.  Can someone say Twilight fan?

The steamy romance between Bella and Edwards captivated me. I’m still yearning for more.  I’m so sad it’s over; I don’t know what to do with myself.  I want more! Are you listening Stephanie Meyers?!

Thank goodness for all the Twi-obsessed designers out there. They’ve been feeding my addiction while I wait for the new movie to come out.

One of my favorites is jewelry designer Gina Nigrelli. She recently came out with a new collection based on the book’s characters for her line Jules Smith.

The collection includes a necklace with a fang charm called “Edward’s Smile,” a bracelet with a fang charm called “Jacob’s Nemesis” and a rubber bracelet with a fang charm called “Bella’s Good Luck Charm.”

These pieces cost between $45-$65 and are great mementos to the novels.

If you haven’t read the books, you might find these charms a little strange, but let’s face it, at this point you’re in the minority. Feeling left out? Check out this cheat sheet for a quick rundown of who’s who.

If you are up to speed on the Twilight saga, I have a question for you: Would you be concerned if you saw a young adult wearing one of these charm bracelets in the office?

Well, the folks over at TalkingShopping.com are telling their readers they should be.  Here’s what they said in a recent post:

“…if your twenty-something co-worker rolls into work flashing her new black rubber fang bracelet, run.  Next thing you know she’ll be burning incense and chanting Edward Cullen love spells over in her cubicle.  Definitely not kosher.”

I resent that comment.  I just turned 24 and I love fashion and I would wear these bracelets in an instant.  They’re sterling silver and gold and charm bracelets are in!

Sorry, just had to get that off my chest.

Back to business… If you want something really unique, check out this other bracelet I found online.

It has a Swarovski crystal heart, a sliver wolf charm, a vial of sand from First Beach in La Push, Washington, and a vial with a rain drop from Forks, Washington. This is one of my favorite because it represents the towns in which Twilight takes place. The best part, it’s only $37! Click here for more details.

This necklace is inspired by the locket Bella gives to Renesmee for her first Christmas.

Here are some other unique Twilight inspired charms I found:
