Feeling tired at the end of a long and busy week? Wanting to start over by rebooting the day so you can start again and get it right? The girls at fabulous handmade label Cup of Sea certainly know how you feel, and they've produced this three-bit ring to prove it!
Made from lovely opaque acrylic, the ring is pure geek chic. Look out for loads more fun designs along the same lines, including one that makes up a hamburger on your very fingers! Bizarre, but fun.

I seem to be one of many people planning on finding a new home in 2010, but having seen these beautiful pendants, I think I may have found one already! The 'Tenby Street' range, inspired by their maker's seaside memories of a childhood spent roaming beach front towns and cobbled streets, is just charming.
Bright and cheery, I'd love to have one of these round my neck right now to remind me over summer. Choose a beach house of your very own and have it delivered to your door in a decorated giftbox.

We've seen quite a lot of zip accessories and decorations this season, but until now most of those have been monochrome, rock-chick style, adorning biker bags, leather jackets and shoes.
This is the first time I've seen zips used on a colourful piece of jewellery, and I really like the choice of shades, which reminds me of a red sky at night. It's easy to see how the necklace was made: by simply coiling fabric-mounted zip inserts together and mounting them on ribbon. If that all sounds awfully fiddly to you, don't worry: it's available on Etsy where you can buy one for $68 (international orders accepted)

In the same vein as Michelle Tratchenberg for Coach, Alicia Keyes is also getting into the jewellery game.
The soul diva is teaming up with The Barber's Daughters designer Gisele Theriault, after meeting her while on tour, for a collection of necklaces.
"[When buying a few of Theriault's items backstage] I fell in love with the individuality of the pieces, but more than that, the words that were written on them really resonated with the songwriter in me. I knew at that moment, for the first time, that through a whole other medium I would be able to spread inspiration, and that's what got me started," she told WWD.
Alicia's collection is made from precious metals and gems which have been inscribed with messages. Pieces range from $85 to $2,500 and will be available from autumn next year.
