For all the times I’ve passed by the Robert Lee Morris store, and marveled at the window, I’ve never stepped in. However, masked with an invitation to meet the iconic jewelry designer and check out and preview his spring collection was plenty incentive for a visit.

The spring collection was nothing short of a work of art. His jewelry, all distinctive and unique statement pieces featured these incredible cuffs and bead with medal combination necklaces. The green/gold contrast is something to admired.
I ran into one of my friends, Dina from Eye4Style.com who complimented my affinity big, bold rings with hers for cuffs. On the left we modeled a set from the spring collection and on the right one from fall (which is currently available). There’s something very batmat-chic about the ring on the right and I felt powerful to have it on my finger.
I then got to meet the infamous Robert Lee Morris, who walked me through his fall collection. Consisting of all gold and silver plated brass pieces, the collection is priced much more affordable then one would venture for this type of craftsmanship and creativity — and is considerably lighter then had it been solid. All the pieces we’re timeless and had the most beautiful shapes and curves in structure.

His favorite piece was one of the more simplistic and classic from the collection — a long silver plated ring that rises in the center — it also happens to be his best seller. Due to its success, he’s remade and brought back this style several times in different metals and finishes.
