Asymmetrical baubles, nooks, and crannies evoke something extraterrestrial! Inspired by a space-age discotheque, Marc by Marc Jacobs‘ Space Travel ring is a funky-meets-futuristic reminder that statement cocktail rings don’t need to cost a fortune – its sometimes the quirky ones stand out the most. Unusual in both style and title, this glass-crystal and gunmetal-toned brass jewel has so much going on – multi-colored crystals are sparsely set to reveal lovely negative space (which then becomes the real focal point) and then that mysterious ribbon-esque figure across the top is totally amazing. Look closely and you’ll realize it’s not an untied bow, but an abstract rocket about to take off into the galaxy of the rest of your hand. The combination of a kooky space shuttle with rainbow sparkle and a glammed-out size makes for a ring that’s pretty in its own way – which is always the best way. On Net-a-Porter for $100.
Pair with: Statement ring equals statement shoe. Nothing says “out of this world” like a sexy-tough McQueen creation. These massive stilettos have an easy-tread platform sole and captivating hardware to catapult your feet into the stratosphere of cool.
