Well yes, something as simple as a safety pin can become a cool wannahave bracelet. Jewelry designer and globetrotter Ileana Makri is originally from Greece, but now shares her time between Greece, London, Paris and NYC.
Although she draws inspiration from her travels and multicultural symbols, there’s an underlying ‘rock chic’ approach to her designs which appeals to celebs in the likes of Uma Thurman, Heidi Klum and Ashley Olsen.
We have a big crush on Ileana’s safety pin bracelets after we’ve spotted them at Colette in Paris. They’re available in various designs; silver, yellow and rose gold plated. Plain or with an enamel tip. Prices start at €320.
Find Ileana’s jewelry at Net-a-Porter, My Theresa and Colette, or via her own webshop.
