Favorite New SWAG Jewelry Designers

For all of the highly coveted collections of recent and established jewelry designers, shop SWAG jewelry. We carry the renowned and statement-making lines of Virgins, Saints and Angels jewelry as well as the classic charms of Thomas Sabo and Pandora jewelry.

We wouldn’t be the go-to shop for trendy jewelry if we didn’t continually spot emerging names in jewelry and stock their collections. Some of our most recent designers have been featured in world-recognized fashion magazines like Vogue, W and People; some have been featured on popular TV shows and in movies; while other designers have had their collections worn by famous actresses and other celebrities.



A few of the most popular new designers SWAG stocks include:

  • Erickson Beamon
  • It is not doubt Erickson Beamon jewelry has an all-encompassing appeal – from the classic style of the First Lady to the unpredictably wild style of Lady Gaga, the line can be described as edgy, chic, demure, high fashion and more. Credited with creating the chandelier earring, Erickson Beamon designs have officially made a lasting impression on American jewelry. If you appreciate painstaking craftsmanship as well as unique and revolutionary uses of obscure elements, shop SWAG for Erickson Beamon earrings, bracelets and necklaces.
  • Miriam Haskell
  • The time consuming, meticulous and incredibly detailed process of creating a piece of Miriam Haskell jewelry no doubt shows in the intricate, delicate and utterly feminine final product. Each piece of Miriam Haskell’s jewelry begins with a vintage, hand-picked filigree and is then carefully embroidered with high quality elements that lend themselves to the romantic, flawless theme of the Miriam Haskell collection. The gold, pearl or crystal elements and the scrupulous workmanship weave together flawlessly, creating this line of jewelry for glamorous, the chic, the elegant… the Miriam Haskells of society.
  • Peter Lang
  • With a slightly edgy rock vibe and an almost serpentine color theme to his jewelry, Peter Lang jewelry defines edgy, high trend jewelry. It’s no doubt that his Swarovski crystal encrusted earrings and necklaces have been seen on fashionable celebrities like Pink, BeyoncĂ© Knowles, Nicole Kidman and more.
  • Isharya
  • Developed from a vision of east meets west, Isharya jewelry has an elegant, Indian-inspired feel that could easily blend into a variety of wardrobes. Each piece of Isharya jewelry was hand designed by sister-in-laws Garui and Radhika, using only high quality stones, materials and 18 karat gold. The mixing of precious and semi-precious stones develops a Hollywood-Bollywood fusion line that’s been seen on the runway and worn by trendy celebrities.

These designers will continue to create celeb-worthy jewelry pieces that are sought after and coveted by many. And you can continue to shop for all your fashion forward jewelry online at Love My Swag, or at our Dallas, Texas store in the impressive NorthPark center, knowing that SWAG stays on trend.

The Woman behind Virgin, Saints & Angels


Just a few weeks ago, Love My Swag hosted designer Cheryl Finnegan of Virgins, Saints and Angels at their NorthPark Mall location in Dallas, Texas. Finnegan’s trunk show at SWAG also served as a release for her new Tribal VSA collection as well as a SWAG exclusive Magdalena necklace.

Over the years we’ve worked with Cheryl Finnegan, the SWAG team has gotten to know a bit about who she is and how she came up with this unforgettable VSA line. We wanted to let you guys in on a bit about this remarkable designer, the woman behind Virgins, Saints and Angels.

Right after a bad divorce and unexpected lay off, a spontaneous trip to the Mexican city of San Miguel de Allende gave Cheryl Finnegan the inspiration to design her now acclaimed line of high-end jewelry, Virgins, Saints and Angels. Launched more than a decade ago, the “Celtic meets Gothic meets Mexico” Virgins, Saints and Angels line reaches far beyond its roots in Mexico – from Britney Spears’ 2004 Californian honeymoon to a 2008 John Galliano runway in Paris.

The Virgins, Saints and Angels collection still serves as a positive tribute to strong women everywhere. Finnegan employs 12 women across the United States and Mexico, working together to bring together the iconic VSA necklaces and other VSA jewelry.

Not only did Cheryl “Finn” Finnegan find the inspiration behind Virgins, Saints and Angels after her move to Mexico, but she found love, as well. Finnegan recently wed Mexican artist Jaime Shelley Tovar, the father of her 6-year-old daughter Tallulah.

Jaime Shelley Tovar views his paintings with similar personal investment like Finnegan views her Virgins, Saints and Angels collection. And just like Finnegan challenged jewelry norms by her contrasting, unique ideas, Shelley breaks boundaries and doesn’t fit into any particular painting category. “I’m not interested in being part of a specific style or trend; my interest is art for art’s sake; that is, to tell what is inside me… No conditions, no bearings, except those dictated by me,” he writes on his Facebook fan page.

To learn more about the man who brought love back into Finnegan’s life, visit Jaime Shelley Tovar’s website which showcases his colorful paintings, bold portraits and more about himself as an artist.

If you’re interested in getting a hold of one of the unparalleled pieces of Virgins, Saints and Angels jewelry, visit the largest dealer of VSA in the country, Love My Swag online or shop Love My Swag at the prestigious Dallas NorthPark center.

Designer Spotlight: Coralia Leets


A synergy of style and elegance.  What more could a girl ask for?  Lucky for us, this is what Coralia Leets has based her whole design aesthetic on.  In tune with what women really want, Coralia creates jewelry for the sophisticated woman who wants to let her individuality shine.


A Little History

Coralia Leets started her venture into the world of jewelry design a little over a decade ago and opened her first namesake boutique in 2001 in Winter Park, Florida. It was there that she first began to gather a loyal following.  The Florida folk became instantly drawn to her vibrant and colorful designs. Originally, each piece of jewelry was individually handmade my local artisans, however with business booming, Coralia was soon forced to seek out other manufacturing options that could turn out quality craftsmanship at a higher capacity and a reasonable price.  Coralia ended up settling on Turkey as the ideal manufacturing environment for her growing brand.

Coralia puts out two to three collections a year, each of which is comprised of roughly 675 pieces of jewelry. The collections are made using hand selected stones, primarily from Brazil. In the event that a particular stone is not available in a certain color, Coralia has sourced experts to dye quartz to a desired shade.  The stones are then set in a sterling silver base that has been dipped in a 22k gold fill overlay.  This unique technique helps keep the designs at Coralia's target price point, therefore allowing her to reach a broader customer base.  A smart move considering the Coralia Leets brand has expanded from Winter Park, FL to being sold in Europe, Asia and Latin America.



Why We Love Her

Coralia's designs are bold and contemporary, perfect for any woman wanting to make a statement, yet they remain delicate and feminine enough for that statement to ere on the side of sheer elegance. Each piece is so entirely versatile, that you could easily wear one of her necklaces to the office, out on a date or even to a black tie event.  But beyond versatility comes originality.  It's easy to be truly unique in any one of Coralia's designs.  Almost each item is offered in a dazzling array of 22 colors so that you can design your necklace or earrings to fit your individual tastes and personality.



Guess Who Else Loves Her?

Coralia's designs are so elegant and show stoppingly gorgeous, that French actress Julia Judd, Penelope Cruz and Milla Jovovich all wore Coralia Leets jewelry to the Cannes Film Festival.


Film star Diahann Carroll was seen wearing a beautiful Coralia Leets necklace in an editorial spread for the May 2011 issue of O, The Oprah Magazine.

Maria Menounos, NBC Today and Access Hollywood correspondent, wore a pair of turquoise Coralia Leets 26mm teardrop earrings on the cover of the June 2011 Self Magazine.


Coralia Leets designs have been featured numerous times in magazines like Harper's Bazaar, In Style, Grazia and Self, to name a few.

Make A Splash With Summer's Hottest Trends


Summer is officially just around the corner, which means long maxi dresses, short shorts and easy, breezy blouses. Undoubtedly, many of you out there are stressing out about finding those last remaining summer time essentials to complete your warm weather wardrobe. Or perhaps you're more stressed out about being able to afford those new summer wardrobe additions. Therein lies the beauty of accessories. An outfit from last summer can be reworked, re-imagined and even reinvented just by merely accessorizing in a new, updated fashion. Instead of spending next month's rent on a bevy of tank tops and mini skirts, invest your hard earned money in a few statement making pieces of jewelry. A gorgeous necklace can turn a simple top into something truly stunning. A modern, sparkly cocktail ring can make last year's summer dress seem suddenly new again. So don't break the bank this year trying to update your wardrobe. Instead accessorize the hell out of it by following a few of this summer's hottest jewelry trends. You'll be glad you did. And so will your piggy bank.



Statement Making Pieces with Cabochon Style Stones


Statement necklaces almost never go out of style, and this summer is no exception. While many of this season's top trends can easily be integrated into the statement necklace, none of them quite hit the mark like gemstones do. More specifically, cabochon style gemstones. Cabochon refers to the cut of a stone, where it is shaped and polished, most likely with a flat bottom and convex top. The smooth surface of a cabochon stone, especially when made from one of summer's vivid hues of turquoise or hot pink, resembles that of hard candy. So, be sure to adorn yourself this summer with a necklace, or even dramatic earrings, dripping in candy-like stones. You'll look good enough to eat.

Giant Cocktail Rings



If diamonds are a girl's best friend, then the cocktail ring would be your hard partyin' college roommate who didn't quite make the cut to be your Maid of Honor. While both are near and dear to your heart, one knows how to have a little more fun than the other, that one, of course, being the cocktail ring. The cocktail ring that'll be strutting its stuff all summer long is the one that's bursting with baubles and bling. The theory here is: the bigger, the better. This summer's giant cocktail ring will update your look with a little bit of flair and a whole lot of attitude.

Not Your Grandma's Pearls



Pearls have always been considered a classic.  They're what you wore while playing dress up, they were what your mother gave you for your 18th birthday, and coincidentally enough, they are what you will be wearing this summer.  As the recession continues, pearls can offer us a little glimpse of hope and perhaps a little comfort. They can remind you of good days gone past.  However, don't think for a second that these pearls will look anything like the one's grandma used to drape around your neck.  These pearls are sexy, they're updated, and they're oh, so modern.  Pearls will be mixed with pretty beads and left in their natural, unpolished form.  So go ahead, pile on those pretty pearls.  Just shy away from grandma's jewelry box when you do.
