Odds necklace CLOSED

Blue Nine Pendant by Odds


I was watching "I love the 80s" on Vh1 and they talked about the Rubik's cube. I had one, and I hated it. I could never figure it out, so I would take all the stickers off and put them back on as if I solved the puzzle.

Now that I'm a bit older, a lot more intelligent and a nail-biter who can't remove any stickers off of any surface anymore... I have a greater appreciation for the Rubik's cube. I have yet to touch one though, but I bet if I read the directions I could figure it out.

This necklace from Odds reminds me of a Rubik's cube... well one side of it. It's modern and stylish and a lot easier to solve if you ask me.

Jessie, the designer behind Odds, has been making jewelry for friends and family since childhood. But it was only three years ago that she thought of making it more of a career. She currently works in the corporate world, but definitely has put her free time to good use in the jewelry world.

Jessie finds inspiration in modern design in every element of life. She recently took a trip to India to do a 5 month apprenticeship with a goldsmith and plans to incorporate some of her newly gained knowledge into future pieces and collections.

I happen to be of Indian origin, so I cannot wait to see the fresh new look at traditionally Indian shapes and designs that Jessie plans to show us in the coming year.

For now, let's go slightly retro and talk about the 80s. Or rather, let's give one of you the necklace pictured above!
