    Twilight, the underground straight-to-cult vampire flick, has had its celebrity premiere - but the “twilight” fashions have been all over the independent fashion world for a while - (super) naturally. Will the look go on?

    Or with such limited runs and already a large percentage of “reserved” items - has the style, or at least the tag, met its hey”night”?





    There aren’t too many crafts that are worthy of being “dugg” to the front page of Digg.com, but funky to say the least, Jennifer Maestre, selling on etsy.com, and her pointy sculptures made from colored pencils sure did the 99% implausible trick!

    A blogger on TypePad, Reuben Miller, did a feature and interview on the indie artisan, which was then voted for by Digg members. Those people are of the pickiest on web 2.0, and have opinions largely skewed to the male and techie, so of course this feat is made even greater by someone who not only isn’t a part of that world (when asked if Jen knew what Digg was, she replied “Who knows?” casually) but she doesn’t even run her own blog aimed toward the lofty goal.

    Below are photos of the Digg feature photo, then one of my favorite items from JenMaestro’s shop, a melty/flattish colored pencil accessory.

    P.S. Readers, don’t let me forget to buy one of those pendants when I make a little more income! Well worth true spending cash, if you have any, ha ha.




    Here’s a unique piece of jewelry in the tone of the coming season. A large heart-shaped pendant made out of copper jewelry wire. Whether you’re in love with February 14 or just plain no one’s in love with you, there is much to like about this piece.
