A/W 2008 Marni has arrived online, and I'm lusting over the new line-up of chunky bracelets, each with Marni's trademark retro-inspired graphic simplicity and contrasting colours and textures. The horn and resin pieces are particularly exquisite, and I love the cotton-covered pieces as well. According to Marni, their jewellery is "handmade in Italy using only natural and creative materials coming from all over the world." I'm not sure if that means the horn has been ethically sourced, but here's hoping.
Gorgeous! Thanks for sharing...

Marni does this every season make me heart things I can't afford.
The last one is my fav.

Keryn - thanks for visiting, love your cards.
Jenny-Wren - nice choice!
Make Do - ah yes, me too. Ack! But I try to make amends with regular visits to COS for some (affordable) Marni-inspired pieces. I was in Milan very briefly yesterday (long story) but didn't have the funds or the time to visit the Marni outlet shop ... my ultimate shopping destination. Gah.

I wish I could afford Marni's jewellery, it's always so wonderful and chunky, the kind of pieces you just want to hold!
