Stephanie Simek has produced one of my favourite pieces of jewellery I’ve seen for a while. She crafts delicates jewels that hang from the lash line, serving as a new breed of “eyecessories.” If you have a look at her website she’s just generally an inspiring lovely who’s just starting out, with a promising design career ahead.

False eyelashes made of lace and jewelry that hangs from the lash line are just two of the many recent examples in this area.
