The Onmii board solves today’s problem with storing and organizing jewelry and accessories. 

Most girls have an abundance of jewelry , big earrings , small earrings and armbands, cuff’s bracelets and the ” onmii “concept is the perfect organization solution.  This is something all girls need!

New to the US, Onmii creates brilliant products for storage and organizing accessories. The company partners with the best industry designers to help design their ideas. Onmii started, as so many other inventions, as a problem. Gry, the founder of Onmii,  was tired of looking for the right jewelry in the busy morning hours. ”Is it in the jewelry box in the bedroom, bathroom or living room?”  Gry developed a solution with the help of award-winning, industrial designer Johan Verde who managed to combine spectacular and trendy design and good functionality.

 Onmii is flexible enough to suit all types of necklaces , earrings , bracelets and rings , while the beautifully designed Onmii board is a jewel in itself.  The core is Onmii Board , which comes in two sizes and can be hung on walls or used as table model.

 “The large Onmii board has 211 holes. The texture formed by the holes is often associated with chinese checker. Onmii Flowerbuttons may be applied anywhere on the board, which will grant you freedom to organize jewelry of any kind and in any size. The board is designed to decorate any wall in any room without dominating the interior of your home.”

Jack Vartanian Handcuff Bracelet

Arrest Me

When it comes to styling—my own wardrobe or an ensemble for a client—I am never one to reserve fine jewelry for strictly red carpet occasions. Instead, I believe in mixing statement-making pieces with everyday attire. Jack Vartanian shares my way of thinking with his line of striking and wearable jewelry, made for women who want the freedom to rock precious pieces with a pair of jeans. I recently added his Handcuff Bracelet to my wrist and never want to take it off!

The perfect representation of sophistication with an edge, these gold cuffs—worn as a set on one wrist—are a jaw-dropping addition to anyone’s jewelry box, if not a permanent fixation on one’s arm. Flaunt them everywhere imaginable, from the coffee shop around the corner to a bachelorette party in Vegas. There is nothing wrong with being a prisoner to your jewels! xoRZ

Availability: Jack Vartanian 18k Gold Handcuff Bracelet ($9380, 212.988.2881). For additional retailer information, visit Jackvartanian.com.

2010 Smashing Designers To Watch by Lady Lux

Filed Under (General) by EyeSpy on 01-13-2010

1. {Ao3} Designs - Brown & Oatmeal Handbag – I love the balance and symmetry of this handbag. The pattern reminds me of 1940s Hollywood Glam; being in LA, a little West coast glam is a must!

2. Cynthia Jones Jewelry – The Simply Siren Statement Necklace – This is a beautiful piece! I’m obsessed with “simple” statements and this one take the cake. This necklace goes from elegant and sophisticated to urban bohemian in less than 60 seconds.

3. Mimo – The Mimo Satchel – has been in a few or our sets. I can’t help it, I love it. I own it. It fits my 15? Mac or my Mac Air perfectly. It’s a must have bag.

4. KRELwear – Cream Bishop Dress – This dress represents fashion forward, edgy Southern California style to a “T”. It’s amazing and could be worn at three different ways. In LA, versatility is a must.

5. Red Doll by TM – The Ingrid Jacket – is gorgeous. It’s not your average piece; at the right event, it’s definitely gonna turn a few heads and get a girl noticed. Perfect for the aspiring actress or models.

6.  Status – The Kimono Top - is effortless. It says “I don’t have to try, I just have taste.” The top can be worn your skinny jeans and ballet flats or over a pair of leggings. In the summer, it’s a dress to be worn with Sam Edelman or Frye gladiator sandals. It receives bonus points for coming in three colors.

7.  Manic Trout – Marie Louise Zsa Zsa Cocktail Ring - is amazing. It’s bold, it’s big, yet the design and wiring maintain an earthly, organic feel. We love this. We’d pair this with our Status Kimono top.

8. Vaness Quijano Jewelry - The White Brass bracelet - is extremely modern. It’s Rhianna meets your inner Valley dominatrix. With four inch stilettos, watch out! You’ll own the room with this piece. Riding whip entirely optional.

9. Sue Rock – These fabric belts – remind me of my favorite Chanel clutch handle with their design. They’re very unique and I love that the scarves are recycled, making this an eco-friendly accessory line.

About LadyLux:
Once upon a time, there was girl named LUX. She believed in humanity, doing good for the sake of good, and all things beautiful in our world. As she grew older and began to take stock of the world around her, her mission in life became clear: be a Change Agent. The tasks associated with being an “Agent” is to use her mind and voice to help fix what is broken in the world and empower the people in it to do the same. Thus was born The Lady LUX Network.  http://bit.ly/6bjZoY
