RACHEL LEIGH

Rachel Leigh launched in 2004 by former Yves Saint Laurent publicist Rachel Blumenthal. Drawing inspirations from runway trends, Rachel Leigh jewelry is designed for a girl who is chic, modern and versatile, who can transform from a quirky girlie-girl to an urban sophisticate to an edgy, glamourous princess from day to night. The type of girl who is adventurous and loves playing with accessories to achieve different looks.

In just a couple of years, Rachel Leigh had become a favourite among fashion editors, stylists, and young Hollywood celebrities. Her pieces had been prominently featured in Vogue, In Style, and on the very stylish Upper East Sider Blair Waldorf on Gossip Girl.

Rachel Leigh jewelry is unique and, most importantly, accessible. Pieces from each season can easily be carried over to the next, mixing and matching bright colours and textures. Whether it’s a brightly coloured “Audrey” bow bracelet or an edgy chain cuff, Rachel Leigh jewelry always evokes a fun and lively attitude.

The “Audrey” enamel bow bracelet is a girlie-girl’s dream; yes, girls love bows. It’s no surprise that Gossip Girl’s Blair Waldorf owns two. She wore the gold “Audrey” with a cute floral summer dress and the blue ice “Audrey” with a sophisticated day dress.

Equally feminine is the “Olivia” bow bracelet. One can never have enough bows, right? A little bit more classic with the addition of snakeskin, “Olivia” is a perfect little compliment to any chic ensemble.

Cocktail rings are a must all year round, and having a brightly coloured ring is sometimes all the colour one needs. Rachel Leigh “Gumball” rings are surely a favourite among stylists because they have been featured in almost every fashion magazine in existence. Pumpkin coloured “Gumball” ring makes a splash in a tropical setting in Vogue magazine, while a turquoise “Gumball” compliments supermodel Karlie Kloss' brightly coloured outfit in the NY Times magazine.

Of course, there is something for the edgy glamour girls too. Both the crystal braided bracelet and the chain cuffs are statement making pieces. While the braided bracelet is for a classic and sophisticated girl, the chain cuffs are going to speak to the girl with a little bit of a rock edge.
