Ace Hotel 3-D Printathon: March 2nd

We were so bummed that the Nemo blizzard foiled our plans to get our 3-D jewelry action on at the Ace Hotel during #NYFW, but we’re happy to announce that the event has been rescheduled to this Saturday, March 2nd!

If you want to check out what happens when 10 accessories designers are paired with creative technologists to create sustainable 3-d designs forged out of nylon powder, this is the time to do it.

This Saturday (March 2nd), local designers in the vein of In God We Trust, Chris Habana, and Ten Thousand Things, will pair up with CAD designers to imagine and create new jewelry designs using printers from Makerbot at the Ace Hotel.

Custom printing will be available on-site all day, and the open flea will feature designers ranging from Anna Sheffield to Ursa Major so there’s bound to be some cool pieces in store as well. 

Be sure to get there by 2pm for the symposium on 3-d printing and fashion’s future; Michael Schmidt (who has dressed luminaries from Lady Gaga to Rihanna to Madonna), Brooks Hagan, and the evangelists from Shapeways and Makerbot will all speak on the panel. 

See you at the machines!

It is always fun to run around town with the sparkling Sorrelli team during Fashion Week.

We’re so grateful for their Valentine’s Day gems they brought along to brighten up even the gloomiest, snowiest New York day.  They sent necklaces in cupcake and hibiscus for sweet mal, and lion pieces for fierce Bianca!  They know Small Girls so well.

3-D Printing Event at The Ace Hotel // NYFW Feb 9th 

We’ve sort of had an obsession over the amazing things one can do with 3-D printing these days… jewelry, shoes, replicas of people’s heads (we want one of us).   It’s such a great convergence between fashion, technology, and creation.  

We are so excited to post about this event that the Ace Hotel is doing- pairing some of our favorite indie designers with CAD artists to create customizable pieces for NYFW.  Come by between 1-5 PM to check out the designs, and for the chance to order your own 3-D printed piece. 

This Fall Fashion Week — Saturday, February 9 — Ace Hotel New York partners with Shapeways to present an interactive encounter of technology and design that explores how digital technology can revolutionize the future of fashion — with Michael Schmidt, Material ConneXion and some of today’s most forward-thinking CAD artists and analog jewelry designers.

Celebrate Breast Cancer Awareness Month with Sorrelli!

October is breast cancer awareness month, and when you purchase any piece from Sorrelli’s Breast Cancer Awareness collection , they donate a portion of proceeds to the American Cancer Society.

What a way to give back while you rock that pink sparkle!

Breaking in Racked: client Sorrelli’s collab collection with client Pinkberry celebrating the froyo’s first ever Brooklyn location.

Brooklyn-born jewelry company Sorrelli welcomes Pinkberry’s first Brooklyn location with The “Sorrelli inspired by Pinkberry” Collection

Crafted with Pinkberry tenets in mind, this crystallized collection is sweet enough to eat.

REFRESHING

Pinkberry is known for their signature flavor profile – sweet and tangy with a refreshing finish.

Ripe for the season- Sorrelli inspired by Pinkberry boasts freshly picked styles to top off your summer wardrobe. 

Clasp on a piece to refresh your work outfit for a night out on the town or boost your weekend with uplifting sparkle. 

LUMINOUS

Pinkberry believes in the brilliance of lighting to create an ambiance that is upbeat and aglow.

Following Pinkberry’s luminous designs, Sorrelli aims to light up the room. The collection radiates with an abundance of crystallized SWAROVSKI ELEMENTS® faceted crystals and the signature Sorrelli sparkle. Sorrelli sparkle is that extra shimmer that each woman gives the piece when she puts it on.

QUALITY

Pinkberry’s commitment to quality doesn’t stop at yogurt.  

They offer high quality fresh fruit, cut daily in every store to guarantee both quality and freshness. 

Sorrelli inspired by Pinkberry shares this continuous commitment to quality with a lifetime guarantee on all pieces.

ORIGINAL

Pinkberry is imaginative and curates a sense of style and design in everything they do.

Sorrelli’s Lisa Oswald started her jewelry empire after making fun costume jewelry for friends’ parties when she couldn’t afford a new dress for each occasion. That originality continues to be the driving force behind each piece designed at Sorrelli.

10% of proceeds from the collection are donated to the American Breast Cancer Society’s Brooklyn Chapter, supporting the bold women right here in the neighborhood.

“My weakness for shiny baubles with a huge punch is no secret. Once I set eyes on Sorrelli’s baubles, I was hooked. Their chic and sparkling jewelry reminds me of my grandmother’s jewelry box, but with a modern twist. Making a statement in this jewelry is effortless - the sparkle does all the work! Just think of it as wearable memories...”

We recently did our first collaboration with style blog House of Jeffers, working together to craft a meaningful, personal post with (client) Sorrelli jewelry in mind.  It turned out beautifully and you can see the results from blogger Jen Jefferys here.

Movie icon Elizabeth Taylor shows just how chic and timeless charm bracelets are.

“She would change the charm from one bracelet to the other, or she might change the chain,” says Christie’s Heather Barnhart.

This bracelet has about 30 charms and is estimated to be about $15,000 to $20,000!
