Our latest batch of favorite looks on Polyvore with your favorite modern jewelry (and a few new sets of our own)! Check out these super-cute outfits that are slowly but fashionably making their way toward spring!
One particular Polyvore user really impressed us this week with her simple but fabulously-styled sets, all with a touch of Kyler! All of our top looks of the week go to Laurrad – three is a magic number!
It’s amazing that as jewelry and accessory design progresses to a fabulous contemporary standard, jewelry boxes have somehow managed to…well, stay in the olden days. So of course we found these jewelry storage designs to be very refreshing and ideal candidates for your modern jewelry collections. Check them out!
Super pretty and lockable (in case you have that kind of roommate) boxes from West Elm that come in a variety of finishes and sizes. Almost as attractive as what’s to be stored inside!
Umbra’s minimalistic “Twigsy” metal jewelry tree fits a lot on its three branches and is quite attractive in its matte black finish. Find it on Amazon.
The Belle jewelry holder from Design Within Reach is both simple and inconspicuous as jewelry storage – quite modern and lovely!
Here’s to giving your Kyler jewelry pieces a chic home!
Happy New Year, Kyler fans! 2012 is not without exciting new style, and we’ve got the sets to prove it from our favorite users on Polyvore! Check out our Top 3 Looks of the week…
Hi there friends and fans! Now that we’re past the end-of-year holidays, we’re excited to share with you the trends of the new year! Luckily, no matter the weather, accessories are always in style, which is this week’s focus…
Though Canada-based fashion brand Covet easily takes the cake for offering simply fantastic wardrobe pieces, we like them especially for demonstrating that green does not equal granola, and that contemporary fashion and ethics are not enemies…not even close. It’s something that we are constantly keeping in mind when designing our eco jewelry.
Now organic and sustainable fibers can shape the results of a garment – and we love how Covet makes it look so effortless. Truly an ideal green designer.
We swooned over designer duo Karen Stewart and Howard Brown‘s cozy and sophisticated fall collection. The couple have a knack for designing those kinds of pieces that you just might want to live in, supporting organic fabrics and ethical business practices wherever they can fit it between a knit and a purl.
We envisioned our designer eco jewelry, particularly from the Lucet Collection, as the perfect mate to their latest additions.
Time to get cozy in silhouettes that don’t look homely…

Another (particularly significant) contest on Polyvore has come to a close – and we’ve got lucky winners to announce! This October was Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and in an effort to help spread awareness of this disease, we asked our fans to create a look using our 14 karat rose gold jewelry! During the month of October, 20% of all proceeds from the purchase of rose gold on our website is donated to Susan G. Komen for the Cure – so we really appreciate that you all helped out by submitting entries to Rose to the Cause! Here’s the lineup:
1st Place – B-Rex: Rose to the Cause
Congratulations to Bridgett, who has just won $50 toward Kyler! We thought this was the perfect combination of incredibly unique pieces and important messaging. We also love that she chose other products made for Breast Cancer Awareness – overall it was the perfect amount of curious, and completely awesome!
2nd Place – BluJay: For the Cause
A rich color palette and greater significance caught our attention with this set. We also loved how she took a simple pair of pumps and added her own rosy applique!
3rd Place – Mathew: Bravery
A beautifully curated and modern take on wearing some particularly fierce colors. And might we add that we’re so excited to try out that fabulous eye color this fall!
So nice work to all of our contestants! We really appreciate your style, enthusiasm, and most of all, your compassion.
Stay tuned for the next contest using your favorite eco jewelry!
It’s been three years now since the opening of the LA-based Lavuk, and after viewing label-owner Natasha Gindin’s Fall 2011 line, we’re looking forward to so many more. What caught us most was her spot-on color forecasting, with the perfect bright reds, purples, and neutral grey combinations in simple silhouettes. So amazing, and made from comfortable eco-friendly materials!
We have to really give it to anyone that takes such initiative for sustainability, coming from all the way across the world! AND we have another brand that’s working with ReLeaf – planting a tree for every purchase made just like us!
So check out her list of stores and hopefully there’s a place nearby where you can pick up one of these awesome looks…
For this particular collection we could totally envision any of our black zinc-coated recycled stainless steel pieces, either from the Pencraft Collection or Futurelore Collection – the perfect eco pairing.

If fall’s hottest silhouette is the midi skirt, the season’s hottest color is certainly to match! We’d call it a trend, but we think bright coral red is already so popular in designer’s latest collections that we’d say that it’s more of a fact.
Here are 5 hot eco-friendly items that boast this season’s top color:
1. Ashley Watson‘s Flicker Bag made from 100% recycled leather is the perfect size for a crossbody with simple and functional details
2. Coclico’s Chispa Tiger wood and suede heels made from ethically-sourced materials with a super cool retro vibe
3. Modcloth’s Always Play Flare full-length skirt – the best of this season’s two trends!
4. Loomstate’s V-Neck tee is just a simple staple addition that you wouldn’t want to leave out of your wardrobe, especially in cozy 100% organic cottons
5. Lavuk‘s super bright cigarette slacks are made in LA from organic fibers. ‘Nuff said.

Hey Kyler fans! Here’s another round of this week’s favorite looks made by our group members on Polyvore! We love seeing the addition of coats and cardigans and rich warm colors to these stylish sets in preparation for fall:
Jessica Alba was spotted just this past Saturday (October 1st) at the Los Angeles County Fair wearing our Anode Collar Necklace in mixed metals with husband Cash Warren and daughter, Honor! The eco-friendly actress paired our sustainable necklace with a downtown-chic heathered tee and casual rolled up slacks, a perfectly cool and easy-to-accessorize outfit for a warm family outing!
The trio enjoyed the sunshine as they strolled around the fair in Pomona, California. In a recent interview with InStyle Magazine, the actress talked about her “open and playful” new eco-friendly home.
Of course this isn’t the first time that Alba has worn a piece of Kyler! Remember last year when she wore our Artisan Glass Chain Cascade Earrings?
We’re always excited to see and hear that celebrities (especially green enthusiasts) choose to accessorize with Kyler – and it looks like Jessica is spot-on with this season’s tribal-inspired trend by wearing a piece from our Futurelore Collection.
Love these looks? You can mix it up too – our Anode Collar Necklace comes in mixed metals, all gold, or all silver and our Artisan Glass Nugget Chain Cascades come in mixed bright metals, silver, or gold!
Always be the first to hear about celebrity sightings, press, and sales by liking us on Facebook and following us on Twitter.
Until next time,
xoxo Kyler

Once again our fans on Polyvore have shown us their best with Kyler eco jewelry! We asked users to create a set with the #1 fall wardrobe must-have: The Midi Skirt along with jewelry from our collections! Setting some wide parameters for the contest requirements resulted a huge variety of outfits – we loved it!
Might we add that we’d like to congratulate all of our participants for having awesome style, but there were three in particular that will certainly inspire our autumn wardrobes!
1st Place: Rachel – Kyler Eco Jewelry
Congratulations to Rachel, who’s just scored herself a $50 gift certificate toward Kyler sustainable jewelry! We’ve never seen something so rural look so chic, with Kyler paired alongside some really fabulous labels!
2nd Place: Maria-Laura – Classic Femme Fatale
We think this is such a dashing look! This super-feminine look is a great new take on our Futurelore collection, and the Burberry Prorsum trench coat is to die for.
3rd Place: Blujay – Street Style with Mixed Prints
This look is totally on-trend right now, with an unexpected version of the midi: the sharkbite hemline. With just a hint of nineties-influence, we thought using Power Crystals for this set was the perfect touch!
Fashion’s Night Out may be over, but we still have plenty of awesome FNO Polyvore contest entries to share with you! Here’s a little recap…
We won’t deny that we are vintage junkies – we’re writing this post from a vintage shell chair right now! But flea markets and antiques fairs have a new vantage point appealing to the eco friendly market, especially in the San Francisco Bay Area.
Buying vintage, especially for large items like furniture is technically more eco than any other earth-saving options out there. You’re buying something pre-owned, so in your new ownership nothing needs to be manufactured, and you’re saving that item from going into landfills.
So there you have it: Making old things new makes those things green!
If you live in the SF area, here are our favorite flea market events to hit up:
The Alemany Flea Market in San Francisco’s Bernal Heights
Location:
100 Alemany Blvd
San Francisco, CA 94110
Every Sunday
The Alameda Antiques Fair at Alameda Point
Location:
2900 Navy Way (at Main Street)
Alameda, CA 94501
The 1st Sunday of every month
Candlestick Park Antiques & Collectibles Fair in San Francisco’s Candlestick Park
Location:
602 Jamestown Avenue
San Francisco, CA 94124
These antique and vintage finds need a home (and not a landfill)! We’ve found some of our very favorite pieces of furniture at these events and can not only appreciate their provenance, but their rebirth as well!
We love New York designer Silvio Liu‘s approach to simple women’s wear design – with dedication to silhouette and keen fabric sourcing, the result is tailored yet casual, and only hints at being part of a specific season or trend.
Listed as one of Refinery29’s Top 10 Rising Designers, we wouldn’t be surprised if the brand’s prediction of celebrity fans comes true! These three picks from the Fall 2011 Collection are our faves – perfect with Kyler eco jewelry!
It’s Fashion’s Night Out with Polyvore, and though we’ve already seen some amazing contest sets with our eco jewelry, things are just getting started! Here our some of our favorite entries: can you guess what the common theme is that’s hot for Fall?

We asked our fans on Polyvore to show us how they would rock stripes with our eco jewelry, and they sure got it straight! By taking a classic year-round trend and combining it with stylish sustainable jewelry looks, we got to see a ton of cute sets, making this contest round a hard one to judge.
Of course we could only go with our top three favorites, with our number one winner receiving a $50 Kyler gift certificate! We judged these looks based on styling, relevance to the contest description, and use of our eco jewelry. Check out The LineUp:
1st Place: Julietav – More Stripes and Jewelry
Congratulations to Julietav, who’s just scored herself a $50 Kyler gift certificate that she can use toward our sustainable eco jewelry! We loved the flawless use of muted color (just in time for Fall) and that super-cute Juicy messenger bag!
2nd Place: Blujay – Show Your Stripes
This fashion-set-come-art -piece features some really cool images that give it a great composition. It almost has a retro feel to it as well.
3rd Place: Mathew – The Line Up
We love seeing our fans’ takes on street style – we also love to see that these boots and handbag are vegan!
This week we discovered three different perspectives on how to wear our Round Minimal Hammered Hoops from our favorite fans on Polyvore! Check out the selection and get ready for the transition into Fall!
