You all know I am a jewelry junkie. I love the boho look with piles of bangles and necklaces.  I am the “more is more” kinda gal.  I met this talented designer, Molly Jane Gravitt,  at The Southern C Summit and have been hooked ever since.  I am coveting her favorite pieces too.  

Molly Jane Designs has graciously extended a -20% discount to my readers with the Promo Code “SpringStyle20”.

What is your training?

“I grew up fascinated with jewelry, all things beautiful, unique and colorful. Like many little girls, I loved playing in my mother’s jewelry box. I was mesmerized by all the various textures, metals and stones in her necklaces. My love for jewelry has been with me since a young age. Around two years ago I started sketching jewelry designs in my free time. Watching the design in my mind take shape in my hands has been a thrilling adventure. I like creating jewelry that can tell a story and evoke emotion.

What inspires you and your designs?

One of my great loves is travel and many of my pieces have been inspired from experience with different cultures, and exposure to unique architecture and even textiles.

What is your favorite piece?

pictures if possible…I am in love with the new St. Martin Necklace Trio. It is colorful, light and perfect for Spring and Summer.

What is your favorite restaurant in (your city)?

Ecco, off 7th street in Midtown. I love everything about this restaurant. The food is incredible, the space is modern and the open kitchen provides a unique ambiance for the diners. My favorite menu item is the “Fried Goat Cheese Balls”; they are simply heaven.

When it comes to cocktails, I tend to stick with classics.; a Vodka Dirty Martini with Blue Cheese stuffed Olives.
