Introducing Ally Marie…

Ever heard of the saying “wearable art”? Ally Marie Couture Jewelry embodies just that! Spear headed by up-and-coming designer Allyson Leak, Ally Marie’s pieces have all the charm of vintage jewelry but none of the pretension. If you like your accessories subtle yet unique, contemporary yet mature this line is perfect for you. Ally Marie is for the woman who values that one perfect piece that can take her from a day at the office to a night on the town. Key features of the line include the 1805 Pocket Book Necklace – a 14k gold purse with a string of brass chains; and the Pearl Necklace – a mix of antique sterling silver beads, freshwater pearls and a sterling chain along the back. Allyson makes all her pieces by hand. She says of her work, “Fashionistas, if it’s quality you’re looking for, be assured that every creation is handmade to perfection. Divas, if its exclusivity you crave, hit me up for an Ally Marie one-of-a-kind!” With that said there's nothing left to do but visit www.allymarie.com.

Gotta agree with that post - this def screams couture but by the looks of the site the prices are actually affordable! So I can wear jewelry that looks like a million bucks after having only spent a few? I can dig it! Placing an order TODAY...

ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS!!!! I've actually donned some Ally-Marie originals for some of my shows and pics...& I always come back with compliments and questions on where to get the pieces I've worn! (Hope the next piece i wear will be for my album debut...hint hint...) ;) Keep 'em coming!

I have had the pleasure of watching Ally and the intensity involved when she makes each unique piece of art. The attention to detail, time, effort, and heart that you put into your designs is awe-inspiring. When I wear your collection I myself feel beautiful and inspired.

Very hot designs! It's always good to see something new and fresh in the marketplace. I'll have to look into purchasing some of these items as presents for the women in my life!

I've purchased a few pieces and they have all become tarnished looking after a few wears...this line is disappointing!

I went to her site and it seems as if the collection isnt cohesive....and many of the items are overpriced for the quality...the bubblegum necklace & rock candy look like something out of Forever 21...

#1 - i absolutely love the line! i've been a fan of Ally Marie for a while - before the jewelry line, when she was designing fab couture dresses. i only expect the very best from this designer
#2 - the line launched less than a week ago so how has anyone had the chance to purchase something, receive it, wear it a couple times, then have it tarnish? very select indiviudals have had the pleasure of donning an Ally Marie original before the line debuted to the masses (i know, esp. since i have the site bookmarked) - and for some reason, I highly doubt any of them would be bad mouthing the line when all they do is boast about it to others. and anyone who uses a blog as an opportunity to lie and negatively cast shade on an up and coming designer is a pretty sad individual. keep up the amazing work Ms. Leak!

Wow, I really like the line. I (grudgingly) agree, there's no "cohesiveness" but I think that's what I like most about it. Every jewelry designer follows the same format of creating a line of pieces that reflect an overall theme. Allyson's theme seems to be "wear what you like and what works for you." Respect this sista for not being like all the rest.

Oh, I think I'm a fan :-)

The line is OK and some of the pieces are interesting but thay are completely overpriced!! Plus is she a jewelery designer or cloths?

I think the line is unique...plus I LOVE having pieces that I wont see on everyone else. I only wear really long necklaces so I too am a fan of the Bamboo necklace.
People are so funny...Just because one person can't afford something doesnt mean someone else can't or wont appreciate it.

Keep up the good work!

Your line is definitely on point--this isn't for trend-setters...it's for invidualist...very creative:)

It takes a special talent and an enormous amt of patience to take the time creating a piece of jewelry, jewel by jewel or bead by bead. Also research/trials to ensure there would not be an issue with the choice of metal or clasps used....Ally's drive, creativity and talent stems back to a childhood dream. I just LOVE her pieces and will support her in all of her efforts...GO ALLY GO..(GAG)

How about actually paying for an advertisement premiumpearl.com?!

Who would trust a pearl company whose marketing plan is spam? Comment spam - that is what they do. Do a search for their name on Google. You see it over and over again.

PremiumPearl.com Sucks! PremiumPearl.com, a company that spams will usually scam.
