There are distinct advantages to being b.f.f. with a jewelry designer--especially when you share a love of excess and hot pink. Witness my favorite piece from my dear and talented friend Azature's newly launched his new Spring/Summer A.Z. line.

He's calling the collection Dynasty. It's is the perfect name in my mind, because everything is equal parts Joan Collins and Jem. It's all big and heavy and somewhere beyond statement-making, with a focus on hot pink, matte black and silver mesh-covered glass gems and oxidized chain.

I had a coronary when he showed me this necklace and got my very own last night. It is a love letter to myself circa 1989, when I wanted to join The Holograms and wore a pair of glittery, pink cowboy boots with everything.
