Carol marie

about carol marie designsInspired by the ability of jewelry to transform your look, designers Jennifer Carol Kramer and Heather Marie White launched carol marie for Fall 2010.

A combination of their middle names, carol marie incorporates an underlining vintage aesthetic with mixed materials creating statement pieces designed to easily update your wardrobe from season to season. The collection evolved out of the designers shared love for statement jewelry. While each piece is strong enough to be worn on its own, the collection is designed to be layered together. Although Jen and Heather prefer a more layered look, the collection can be interpreted to fit the wearer's personal sense of style. Signature styles include pendant chain and multi strand necklaces along with a variety of stackable bracelets resulting in a line of accessories that is both inclusive and accessible. Jen and Heather met in 2006 while working at W Magazine; Heather as the Fashion Assistant and Jen freelancing fulltime in the accessories department. They remained close friends throughout job changes within the industry, Jen most recently in the accessories department at Marie Claire while Heather transitioned out of editorial and currently works at a PR agency in New York. They began by scouring flea markets and making pieces for their own wardrobes and transitioned into making custom pieces for magazines. This led to their decision to officially launch the collection for Fall 2010. http://www.carolmariedesign.com/
