nina kuna designs fall 2009

tahitian pearl collection

count me in the company of those who typically find pearls either a bit too preppy (hello betty draper!) or way too costumey (i.e. layers of faded victorian glamour), but it may be time to reconsider after eyeing the smoky pearl combinations featured in nina kuna designs' fall 09 offerings. the maui designer looked to the south seas for her latest collection and nina's lustrous new concoctions seem made for modern island lovelies rocking that always coveted unfussy-yet-elegant beach girl look.

dig deeper into the treasure chest and you'll discover more gorgeous seaworthy adornment from a hand cast sterling silver starfish necklace to a leather wrapped cowrie shell bracelet-slash-choker. and, if you have swooned in the past for nkd's edgy hand hammered strands, you will be delighted to make the acquaintance of another statement making style of carefully composed graduated organic circles that seem to linger oh-so-prettily without a care.

more peeks below . . .

starfish necklace * cowrie shell bracelet
cosmos circles * ocean blue coral * drip earrings * sea tangle

on a happy note, nina opted to sidestep the middle man since her jewelry was last featured which means tinier price tags (the looks above range from $45 to $245) just in time for the holidays.

and, order up your favorites in the next three weeks to score an extra 10% off in the online shop as an early bird bonus!

p.s. oahu readers can also call dibs on the nkd fall 09 collection when it arrives in-store at shasa emporium next month.
