We love companies that really give back, and when it's a tiny mom & pop business working hard to make a difference, even better! Vivian Cheng and Eric Jean-Louis are a Canadian husband-and-wife design team who started their jewelry company, Blend Creations, in 2005. They recently launched a fabulous new limited-edition line of pendants called Metal for Monsters with the goal of raising $10,000 for UNICEF.

On runways and sidewalks in stylish cities around the globe, we've seen one trend appear over and over -- the statement necklace. It adorns the necks of women wearing haute couture gowns as well as regular ladies just heading out to grab a bite to eat. And they always look expensive.

Ever feel like you're just about to crack? Maybe you feel like you just want to smash something. Well, there's always Sarah's Smash Shack for that, but what to do with all of the broken pieces afterwords? Marjorie Cunningham has the answer with her unique handcrafted jewelry made from recycled shards of broken china and porcelain.

As soon as we feel that touch of crispness in the air, we just feel like fall. We want to decorate our homes in autumnal colors, we want the leaves to start changing into those magically beautiful colors, and we want to adorn ourselves with accessories that remind us of fall.

Now, fall colors might not work for everyone, but leaf accessories certainly do, and we can't beat this Dean Harris for Target Sterling Silver Leaf Pendant Necklace -- it's only $29.99! And, there are matching earrings, too.

SuperJeweler.com, the mega-big online discount diamond jewelry mart, is joining in to do their part to help raise Breast Cancer Awareness.

We love all of the amazing independent designers out there and we wanted to find out more about what makes these creative types tick. If you do too, check out more of our Indie Designer Interviews.

Want to express something a little more meaningful through your jewelry choice than just how much you spent on that bling? Today's featured designer, Kristian McIntyre of Creative Art and Soul, creates sandcarved gemstone and glass jewelry pendants inspired by many of the world's different religions and cultures.

As you undoubtedly well know by now, we love interesting pendant necklaces -- something big and bright and fun can make any outfit enviable. And so, it's no surprise that when we saw RetiMade's Triple Yolk Necklace, we were in love.

Some of the best accessories in the world are based on elements of nature. And, especially in the summer, we're rather partial to floral accessories, especially when they have a bold, funky edge to them.

We all have The One That Got Away. That one piece that, if only you'd had the cash on hand, if only you'd bugged your mom a little more, if only your Visa wasn't maxed out, would have made your wardrobe -- nay, your life -- complete. Ours was a swimsuit we found at Goody's (!!!) in the 7th grade. That is, until we went to Urban Outfitters one fateful day a couple years ago and stumbled on a tiny watch on a long silver chain, like a miniature stopwatch, with a blue and pink cloisonne top. Suddenly, we were in love.

We love funky necklaces here at Styledash, but the Charming Tiny Clock necklace available on Urban's website for $28 is probably the closest reincarnation to that cloisonne miracle.....at least, that we can afford. (We're looking at you, Marc Jacobs.) Here's hoping this one doesn't get away from us before we can save our poor-kid pennies for it.

Great news for fans of punctuation! It seems that all kinds of nerdy symbols -- no matter how esoteric or boring -- are being immortalized in the form of novelty jewelry these days. We don't know why, but we think it has something to do with the fact that people want their jewelry to mean something. For scientists: it's periodic table rings, for computer geeks: Kenneth Cole emoticon cuff links, for bloggers: the comma necklace. It's nice to finally see the short pause getting some respect.

It's hard to imagine very many people wanting a comma pendant, and that's probably why it seems cool to the tiny percentage of people who identify with punctuation marks. The comma pendant is cool in theory, but really, we're bigger fans of the Em dash. Anyhow, it's not exactly the most fashionable piece we've seen lately, but it's semi-meaningful. Maybe it'd be a good gift for an English teacher. At least it's small enough to be subtle.

Do you ever have those days when you simply don't have the wherewithal to put together a truly fabulous outfit, but you still want to look pulled together? You know, when all you seem to be able find is a v-neck tee and jeans, and you prefer to look effortlessly chic and not like you just didn't make an effort?

I'm always drawn to strange yet sweet little accessories like this domino pendant by Odd Bird. For me, it's a tiny rebellion; I stay with safer choices when it comes to my clothes but I'll admit, I like jewelry that gets double-takes and starts conversations like, "Where on earth did you find that?"

Each of these hand-painted pendants is one-of-a-kind and made from a real domino. They're available in 16 different designs for $36.00 each from Chocosho. Some of the designs seem to be selling out fast since the designer, Odd Bird, is getting quite a bit of attention lately, but look for supply to catch up with demand soon.
