The Dirty Class Collection - Summer 2007for my new collection think...distressed, oxidized, worn, faded, organic, rough, rugged BUT still lookin; high-end, couture, exclusive and always, always one of a kind...can you dig it?im bringin all the flavors to you my friends. cus im a giving soul......The DIrty ClaSs CoLlecTioN...stay tuned and learn about it. .
Nothing is more bourgeois than to be afraid to look bourgeois. Andy Warhol
Earth Rock - Fall 2006yall not ready....a collection using a combination of natural elements such as wood, camel bones, coyote teeth, black, red, green and gold coral, shells and feathers combined with metals and and chains...ya not ready...takin it back to the motherland in a rockstar sorta way.
The Chain Gang Collection - Spring/Summer 2006
a mix of rock and roll..rough, dirty and yet delicate earrings (single strand or mix and match), make you wanna strut like you a rockstar..
single strands cus pairs are soo...predictable?
each piece is one of a kind...cus the last thing you want is to see some clown with your stuff when YOU tryna look fresh...can you dig it??!?!
what that mean is that what you see here may not necessarily be what you get but rest assured buddy...know that the level of freshness pretty much keeps escalating so much so that you may not be ready for the level of star power you bout to bring to the streets. trust and believe kid it be the new next shit...sigh..yes indeed.
Fresh way before Myspace...

customers to buy my jewels so i can buy a home, have four kids, retire early and travel the world with my grandkids. make enuf money to buy quality sperm (LOL!!), start a commune, take all the talent i find here on myspace and build, create, barter our own community and home school our children....earthseed.

rock and roll dudes and chicks that take fashion risks and who try to be different by being different and not trying to be different by being the same...yeah..that makes sense...

ask about any of the pieces you see here or a custom piece...

FREE SHIPPING! how luxurious.
