Edenborough Evans is my favourite jewellery designer for 2011. Designer Anna Cowan uses handmade wax formations and old fashioned seal stamps to create the moulds as part of her collection. The result is striking pieces which mimic flow and movement.

This pendant gives new meaning to going green. The Growing Jewelry House collection by HAF by Hafsteinn Juliusson is a typical silver ball chain necklace, but with a potted plant at the end with real growing moss inside. Designed for people in urban areas to have their own little spot of green.

The Pastie Project is an initiative by young jewellery designer, Leah Ball, with the premise of creating ‘couture nipple covers, made of precious metals and jewels’. Hmm, hmm. She’s currently looking for funding for the project through Kickstarter.

We got our hands on a Kinekt Gear Ring the other day and haven’t stopped playing with it since. In a good way, of course. The Gear Ring, which is made from high quality matte stainless steel, features six micro-precision gears that turn in unison when the outer rims are spun. It’s a blast. And it looks great on the hand, too. As my wife will now attest. Read more

How hot is this cut-aged copper bracelet decked out with heart-shaped charms? Icon Brand’s designs of late are definitely heating up raw aesthetic appeal. I’ve got my eye on their bullet, rosary and dog chains. You got to love this 1977 Byron Bay-born company that still continues to deliver quality goods.

Shops that stock independent local labels in tandem with mainstream brands receive brownie points from me. Local Derby, my new-found treasure on Newtown’s iconic King Street Strip, sell the cutest, funkiest and most unusual accessories I’ve seen in a while. I’m fond of the quirky jewellery by Kristy’s Jewels and the more renowned Icon Brand’s pieces, in particular. But sorry kids, I already acquired that Hail Mary Ring.

Each one of these Bracelaces by Itunube is turned into an elegant drawing on the skin using different kinds of lace combined with leather, metal components and glass beads. They’re just US$25 in the Lost At E Minor store.

This necklace has been handmade in Italy by Paola Volpi. No longer are zips merely a functioning necessity for apparel, this unique necklace has been created from original gold zippers and thick transparent acrylic threading.

On my best days I feel just like a great white shark. Not all-conquering and indestructible — though I have my moments — but rather that if I ever stop moving, if I take a moment to correct myself in the full glare of the light, I’ll probably sink. Read more

The Deal sisters have dropped off the indie-rock radar of late, but this clip of them covering Hank Williams’ I Can’t Help It reminds us why we all loved them so much back in the day. Incidentally, the Breeders are set to release their new album, Mountain Battles, in April.

The Danes are renowned for their considered and subtle design. However, in these times of change, they must feel they need something with this selection of a bridge building as the winner of a recent architectural competition in Denmark. The American architect Steven Holl designed this building with a pedestrian bridge that links two sides of the harbour in the distinctly low-rise Copenhagen. Read more

His name is Marshall Ace Drummond, which makes his initials MAD. At just over 8 months old, you don’t need to be clucky to appreciate his outfits: from Baby Gap to Cheap Monday, and sometimes not much more than a cheeky grin. This bub oozes charisma and his clothes suit him to a tee (pun intended).

It’s the final, sultry day of Barcelona’s experimental sound-fest, Sonar, and weary punters are gazing listlessly at an empty, smoke-filled stage. Before long, a vocalist, beatboxer and grand pianist stride on, and what follows is a startling and, at times, deeply melancholic cabaret-electronic hybrid, prompting jaws to drop and delighting the drowsy. Meet Khan of Finland: ‘I tell stories about my everyday life; they are songs about love, pain, party and spirituality. I would call it bionic blues’.
