KLIK KLIK™ Magnetic Jewelry

The appeal of magnetic jewelry is the customization – just snap any of KLIK KLIK’s 300 nickel-plated neodymium magnets (one kit is $65) together to form hundreds of different bracelets, necklaces, and more. It’s fun to play with and rearrange, but also quite pretty!

CuteFAIL: Swarovski Character Pendants

Swarovski sells plenty of questionably ugly items.. but these character pendants, while trying to be cute and sparkly, fail oh-so-miserably. Jewelry is supposed to be elegant and pretty, not look like some 5-year-old’s bedazzle experiment. Even worse, they sell for $220-$260 each (charms and key-rings are $100) and seem to be popular enough to have renewed themes each season (currently it’s nature). I just cannot picture a grown adult actually wearing one of these..
