Fashion Top Five: Bug Jewelry

It seems like jewelry featuring insects is everywhere, and just in time for cicada season. We’re not talking about inherently beautiful bugs like butterflies, either – using ick-inducing insects and pretty materials like gold and glass, this jewelry creates a cool contrast that'll make passersby do a double-take.

A white Lucite cuff offsets the sparkly greens of the rhinestone bee on Subversive for Target’s Bee Lucite Hinge Cuff ($14.99). The result is a statement bracelet for less than $20. Subversive for Target, you are awesome. 

This gold-plated

Juicy Couture’s Beehive Charm ($48) would look cute alone on a charm bracelet, but we also like the idea of stringing them side by side on a gold chain or black cord to be worn as a convertible right-now necklace.

Rendered in light, handmade glass and strung on a brown leather cord, these Dragonfly Necklaces ($215) are a little bit hippie, a little bit luxe.

Giles & Brother’s Tiny Fly Necklace (was $75, now $52.50) is small and simple enough to stand in for your everyday necklace. The tiny fly is a chic and unexpected twist on the normal diamond/heart/bean pendant.
