HISANO TAKEI

I couldn't resist posting this slightly strange, bordering on ridiculous piece which goes under the guise of jewellery. It also doubles as a in-flight neck pillow for long haul flights.



I particularly like the result when you tip it over the limit of 'stackable' with 3 for bad face days.

COLLEEN JORDAN - WEARABLE PLANTERS

I think these little necklaces with miniscule plants inside are just adoreable. Its not often i go for cute tiny little delicate pieces, but this one in particular makes me smile.


She calls them wearable planters, featuring tiny plants such as succulents in tiny pots to wear around your neck. I personally love the concept of wearing something living on you. Sort of like being able to take your pet to work.


I think if i had a little bit of herb such as sage worn around my neck during the day it would be a real pick-me-up, like having a sniff of essential oils to get you through the day, but the real thing.
