The perfect mix of whimsical and tough, a little bit lethal and yet oh-so-romantic.

That is all.

Yesterday I set up a very temporary studio space in the half-empty room so that I could display all the merchandise I have so far for a few friends who wanted to come over and take a peek, and it got me even more excited to start setting up the actual studio.

Scouring the internet for inspiration and ideas has become my latest hobby, and most recently, after being asked by a few different people how I plan to display and organize the jewelry, I’ve been on the hunt for creative ways to do so. We all know about my love for vintage luggage, so when I found this photo, which marries that and my current need for displays, it was perfect.

I’d obviously have to get creative with how I actually get it to function for what I need it to do, and keep my eyes out for a few more pieces, but I love the concept.

What do you think? Any other creative jewelry display ideas?

We’re all aware of my love for jewelry, vintage trinkets and one-of-a-kind pieces, and so when I stumbled upon Les Jumelles Boutique, it was as though I had found my own personal treasure chest.

Coup de Couer Bracelet

Le Carousel Pendant Necklace

Mes Reves Locket Necklace

Alice in Wonderland Inspired Necklace

Promesse Necklace

Fleur de Lys Perfume Bottle Necklace

Mes Souvenirs de Woodstock Necklace

I love the stories and personality that go along with each of these pieces, and the vintage pendants and antique chains add whimsical touches. I picture these layered together and with other necklaces, creating a story and adding a unique, personal touch to any ensemble, an idea that is at the core of what bicyclette stands for. And the Parisian themes are simply perfect.

Curious, which pieces speak to you?

And if you have any other jewelry line recommendations that have a similar feel, I would love to hear about them…
