Daily Candy - New York

You Got Punked

Somewhere along your journey to adulthood, you abandoned your idealistic ways.

And so you find yourself kicking around St. Marks, lamenting the loss of The New York Dolls. Then you sit at Starbucks (the one across the street from the other Starbucks) and wonder when you became so mainstream. The Man may employ you, but you need to snatch back a little street cred somehow.

So do it - with Kimberly Baker's badass baubles.

Baker reworks images of Goth fangs, octopi, padlocks, and chains into chic emblems of rebellion. Bring back some rock and roll with her new Liberty Wings necklace and her latest Bobbi Jo earring (a bald eagle clutching a dagger). Cast in silver or blinding gold, each piece is as pretty as it is punk, which means it looks as good with a motorcycle boot as it does with a Botkier.

Proof that growing up doesn't always have to mean selling out.
