Designer Spotlight: Tina Tang

02/28/2009

Anyone who has the guts to quit a job on Wall Street must have some big dreams, a creative brain, and a daring edge to them. This combination is what led Tina Tang to making her dream of designing jewels into a reality several years ago. Today, her work has been featured in countless magazines and dazzled on celebrities. Worth the risk, right?!

Her style is unique and I especially love her description, “classics with a twist” because it is literally just that! Texture is lovely in all aspects–fashion, home decor, art–and this can be seen in her jewelry line. I love the twisting of the gold, it gives her jewelry a nautical, luxurious feel to it.

Check out some of my favorites from her collection below. Read up on what is going down at her NYC studio and everyday life here on her blog.
