Current & Elliott
I’ve been a huge fan of Current/Elliott since its start in 2008 and nearly four years later, I still can’t let go of my first pair of threadbare Elephant Bells. I was beyond delighted to see The Coveteur give us a peek inside Meritt Elliott and Emily Current‘s closets and I must say, it doesn’t disappoint. It’s no wonder this duo was the mastermind behind the ultimate denim line!

DIY Pom Pom Necklace
The moment we saw designer Nicole Akong‘s dramatically colorful jewelry collection, Conquistadora, we were smitten. Honestly, what’s not to love about these ethnic and tribal inspired pom pom necklaces? And how can we resist figuring out how these beauties were made? With just a few feet of cording, trimming, and chain, we’ll show how you can DIY your own Akong-inspired necklace!
You’ll need:
- 2 feet of pom pom trim
- 2 feet of chain
- 40-60 jump rings
- 4 feet of nylon cord
- 2 needle nose pliers
