It's that skull and crossbones time of year again and what could be more fun than wearing posh, brightly-coloured skulls?Dior Joaillerie's Coffret de Victoire collection includes: ring in 18K yellow gold, diamonds, pink sapphires, turquoise and mother-of-pearl (above left); and pendant in 18K yellow gold, diamonds, pink and green tourmalines, aquamarine, tanzanite, pink sapphires, amethysts, chrysoberyl, sapphire, emeralds, cultured pearl and coral (above right). Any piece from this collection (or anything by Dior, for that matter) will ensure you're the talk of the costume ball . . .
Not to be outdone is Tom Binns' Tough Chic collection of less precious, but still loads of fun punk-infiltrated creations (below). The Irish-born Binns was a one-time collaborator with Vivienne Westwood and favours rock and roll interpretations of jewellery classics, where diamantes and pearls sit alongside bullets and skulls.

Is it wrong to say that skulls are "cute"? Because these are.
LOL Brilliant--and I agree, these skulls are cute :)
oooh!! I love all of these, especially the top picture!! I have been on such a skull and crossbones kick lately!!
So glad you like them, C&C! I thought they were pretty cute, and the Dior ones use actual diamonds, which is even better :)
Honestly, you always manage to find the best stuff!
The last one is kind of beautiful and cool, as far as attempting to unify Halloween and jewels! The ones in the first picture however are just silly :)...
