"We have designs that have a little bling for the woman that wants to stand out and subtle pieces for someone who may want something simple."
Ahead you'll find some amazing creations by Fabulina Designs and tips on how to pull off these accessorized looks.
Stack It Up
Don't be afraid to stack your jewelry for a bold aesthetic. The trick is to mix up the lengths of the necklaces for precision and depth. You can use a graphic tee as the canvas for your stacking pleasures.

Accent Your Look In Layers
We are obsessed with this crescent horn necklace and beaded river necklace paired with the gold cuff rings. This look was a success because of the scoop neckline. If you're interested in puling this off, make sure you show a little skin.
Shop The Look: Crescent Horn | Beaded River
Put A (Statement) Ring On It
If you like it, you should put a ring on it. The Jumbo Natural Druzy ring needs no introduction because...well, just look at it. Best of all, is the fact that it's adjustable. With this beauty on your hand, you don't need any other rings.
Shop The Look: Ring
The More Accessories, The Merrier
Do you consider yourself a fashion risk taker? Break all of the rules by wearing an assortment of statement jewelry. I really appreciate the simplicity of the earrings and necklace and the bold vitality of the bracelets.

Elevate Your Look And Your Vibration
What better way to feel down to earth than to be covered in crystals? It's a perfect way to add dimension to your look while tapping into the vibration and energy a particular crystal gives. The majestic appearance of the Druzy crystals is dazzling.

ItGirl In Motion: DonYé Taylor Asked Herself This Question When Creating Her Brainchild
"Being an 'ItGirl' is all about being yourself and taking all of the elements that make you who you are and displaying them at your highest capability," creative brainiac DonYé Taylor says in the introduction of the limited video series, "ItGirl In Motion."
In partnership with Hyundai, xoNecole has unveiled the limited series in conjunction with our inaugural ItGirl 100 list. The list boasts 100 Black women who not only innovate and take up space when it comes to putting on for their cities, but also as the driving force behind brands that create impact for the culture. ItGirl DonYé Taylor is one of the 100 featured ladies who put her purpose into action.
ITGIRL IN MOTION with DONYE TAYLORwww.youtube.com
As a marketing consultant, content creator, and CEO, a driving force behind DonYé's ambitions has been to show others how she sees the world by "creating art and doing things that shift perspective." In founding her brainchild, Nüclei, which is coincidentally also home to the ever-so-chic chrome brain piggybank, DonYé briefly touched on the inspiration behind the brand. "I was like, 'What would it look like if I were to be of service to myself?' And that's what made me create Nuclei," she said.
Watch the video above to take a peek into the life of the LA-based ItGirl, the importance of Black women receiving our "flowers" while we're here, and the three things she believes are absolutely essential to any ItGirl.
