Like the little black dress, a string of pearls and the bob, some styles last through the decades.

Cita Jewelry designer, Sara Ash, transforms vintage materials into modern, statement-making jewelry. Every piece tells a story, like the freshwater pearl Grace Kelly necklace, accented with a forgotten brooch, or the Carried Away vintage gold filigree and turquoise earrings. Our favorite is the It’s A Man’s World necklace loaded with found chains, a locket and an old men’s watch band. The more delicate designs are reminiscent of old Hollywood glamour.

Just because you aren’t having breakfast at Tiffany’s, doesn’t mean you can’t channel your inner Audrey Hepburn.
