We love all of the amazing independent designers out there. In order to find out more about just what makes all of these creative types tick, we present to you an ongoing segment called Indie Designer Interviews.

Designer Janna Culbreth creates fresh, exotic jewelry designs perfect for livening up those simple summer outfits. Each of her pieces is one-of-a-kind, and while there's plenty of ready-to-wear jewelry to shop from, she also specializes in affordable custom-made jewelry. Now is a great time to check out her work, because Janna is having a special Christmas in July Sale this Saturday, July 26, 2008 in her Etsy shop.

While I was up in Northern California this past weekend, I went into this cute little shop called Paloosh. Paloosh carries all of my favorite brands like Marc by Marc Jacobs, Primp, True Religion, as well as some brands that were new to me like Christie Martin.

Christine Martin is a jewelry designer from San Jose, California, who specializes in initial jewelry. Celebrities like Beyonce, Cameron Diaz, Paris Hilton, Christina Aguileria,
Ashley Olson and even Hilary Clinton are all fans of her jewelry .

You can count me in as a fan as well. I completely fell in love with her gold dangling 'L' initial earrings, which I foolishly didn't buy. Christie's line has other items besides those fabulous earrings; she designs rings, necklaces, and chokers, too. You can opt for a single initial or request custom work to have a name spelled out across a necklace or choker.

Christie Marin's jewelry is sold in high end boutiques, like Fred Segal, or you can buy her products on her website ChristieMartin.net.
