While I have a great appreciation for many things, I rarely cover women's accessories, as I can't get as excited about it as I can about men's accessories, which I can actually wear. I recently saw a few lines of women's accessories that I really loved and think you will too.

I've been a fan of Canadian designer Arielle de Pinto since the first time I saw her work. de Pinto makes a line of necklaces and bracelets that is simply amazing. The pieces from her line fall outside normal conventions for jewlery, straddling a line between very chic or very low key depending on the context and the wearer. There's a certain chameleon-like quality the line possesses that allows them to work with whatever you wearing, be it a cocktail dress or a t-shirt. When I look once, some pieces look like they could be from Harry Winston. When I look again, I see a homemade piece done by a hippie chick from Los Feliz.

de Pinto was born and raised in Toronto and educated at Montreal's Concordia University. Over the course her studies in Fine Arts and textiles at school, as well as a series of disparate professional internships, Arielle developed her unique brand of hand-crocheted jewelry launched in 2007.

Her treatment of metal as fiber produces a body of work with considerable weight and brawn, yet yields visually delicate and supple works. While precision and form are essential, de Pinto adopts a consciously unrefined approach in finishing each piece, always exposing a few chain "threads". An integration of opposites, her vision of modern finery is both precious and organic.

Her line of Masks are breath taking. At the same time ornate and artistic, the pieces also have a fetishistic quality to them, conjuring up images of Robert Downey Jr's character in the 2006 Diane Arbus movie Fur. If you can afford one, it'd be the perfect costume to wear to one of these over-the-top parties going on in the Middle East that I keep hearing of. A head scarf of bacchanalian proportions that not only covers your head, but your face will most certainly get you noticed.

The line can be found online at Reborn.
