Pop Rock & Roll Earrings by Millie Hilgert

Polished and luminescent, these candy-like danging earrings ($18 a pair) look nothing like the vinyl material from which they're derived. Fusing fashion with her love of music, designer Millie Hilgert (aka "Miss Courageous") carves up old vinyl records and suspends them from sterling-silver earwires by hand in Boise, Idaho. Lickable colors that recall ice-cream sodas, jukeboxes, and poodle skirts include cherry, lemon, cotton candy, and grape.
For the old-school connoisseur, the earrings also come in opaque black. ::BTC Elements
