valentine’s day with Shaft!

Wednesday, February 13th, 2008

ah, valentine’s day..another reason to eat more chocolate. as if we needed a reason. and in case chocolate, roses, and stuffed teddy bears are not your thing, try sending your lovey a “personalized” song sung by isaac hayes.

simply type in your lyrics and send it to any phone number.  try it here.

how did sprint convince isaac to do this? i bet back in the day he never thought he would be doing anything for a large corporation!

from this…

and this…

to this…

IMO, anyone who can sport gold chain-link suspenders with pink spandex and still look like a bad-ass is pretty awesome no matter what they end up doing later in life. the whole scientology thing aside of course.

kris nations studio *uniform*

Wednesday, February 13th, 2008

Maybe we spend too much time with each other here in the studio. We are starting to dress the same. Here is our typical Kris Nations Jewelry Headquarters “uniform”…

First off…how can you go wrong with these…and I’ve been told you MUST have black laces:

Converse All Stars

then we have the most comfy tops from our friends at she-bible

She-bible SeaCliff Coat

She-bible Frankie Hood

and to complete our uniform…

Levi’s Eco Skinny Jean

of course we need to accessorize! these are our standards:

Kris Nations Double Oval Pendant Necklace

Kris Nations Square Hoops

we *heart* sharon!

Wednesday, February 6th, 2008

since we spend most of our days making jewelry in our studio, we either listen to npr or some good tunes. since all this election stuff is already starting to get old we have been relying on the tunes. lately we have been rocking the new album by sharon jones and the dap kings, “100 days 100 nights”.

sharon is known as the “female james brown”. when i first heard their cd titled, “natually”, i honestly thought it was music recorded in the 60’s. little did i know, they currently record and i even had a chance to see them live at bimbo’s in sf. if you ever have a chance to see her live YOU MUST GO! you will not be disappointed.

we heard a fresh air interview of sharon and learned that she used to be a prison guard at rikers island in ny. now she makes a living doing what she loves. now that’s inspirational! sharon rocks.

spring is here!

we are super excited to have our new spring collection available online! this season was inspired by “Paleo Futurism” or a “future that never was”. think about what folks in the 50’s and 60’s thought the future would look like. imagine yourself sippin’ martini’s with Judy Jetson in her space-age modern home. now imagine yourself in these beauties…

Double Fan Hoops

Astro Earrings

And how about this perfect Spring necklace…

Petulia Capsule Necklace

We hope you enjoy the new collection!!

new year. new blog.
