Fiel Sol

Meaning loyal or faithful sun, this Australian jewelry line definitely has my loyalty. Similar to Tom Binns' jewelry worn most famously by Kelly Ripa, Fiel Sol is just as beautiful but much less costly. (I'm not counting the shipping costs from AU to the US. In the name of fashion it's always worth it!)

I have a personal love of Fiel Sol because I studied abroad in Melbourne for seven months. (Pronounced Mel-bin by the locals. Now you won't be a geeky tourist. Thank you, Champagne Saturday!) While there I was fascinated by Australian fashion. Everyone seemed to have their own style. It was different from back in the States where everyone followed basically the same trends. People here wore what they liked and used their imaginations to create visually interesting and appealing ensembles. I shopped so much in my seven months there I had to buy a third suitcase and ship it home. (Parents were not too happy about that one!).

Fiel Sol's jewelry is gorgeous, visually appealing and on trend. A beautiful combination of natural stones and metals, each piece is distinctive. The vibrant colors add a touch of life that seems to exude energy and exemplifies the brand's name. Each piece seems unique and versatile in its own way. Their pieces can be dressed up or dressed down, but no matter what they are the most stylish accessories. Step out of your fashion rut and get some "Sol"

The Fiel Sol blog describes their jewelry better than I ever could: "Marissa and her dedicated team at Fiel Sol create handcrafted, vibrant and unique jewellery inspired by cultures from across the globe. With her love for creativity and individuality, Marissa established Fiel Sol in early 2009 to design jewellery that reflects her own visual style. Each collection is designed with an emphasis on colour, texture, metals and the natural beauty of semi-precious stones. Fiel Sol blends the themes of antiquity with a modern edge - necklaces, rings, bracelets and earrings capture the beauty of ancient treasures with bold, vibrant colours."
