BaubleBar's New Designer Collaborations

When accessorizing, always take one thing off before you leave the house. – Coco Chanel

When accessorizing, always take one thing out of your online shopping cart before you check out. – your wallet

Neither will be very happy with the launch of Fusion, a new line of designer collaborations from affordable accessories site BaubleBar.

First up: New York’s bejeweled powerhouse Erickson Beamon. Channeling its free-spirited, celebratory style, the seven exclusive pieces make every statement you want to. A pair of bright Versaille Dye Gem earrings (pictured, $94) screams instant party. The clear crystal and dark metal Dirty Glam necklace ($165) extols feminine edge. The Pearl Jam necklace ($200) begs for a night out uptown.

We can’t say who is next. However, we can say you’ll be excited and that BaubleBar plans to introduce new collabs once a season.

But don’t quote us on that.
