Lust With Us Over Lulu Frost's Latest Line For J.Crew

Is there anything better than two of your favorite fashion brands teaming up? We think not. We can't help but get awfully excited every time J.Crew and Lulu Frost release their collaborative collection every season, and their latest line for summer '13 is really a knockout.

These bright metal baubles range from $98 to $278 and are available at J.Crew on May 20. Peep the pieces that will bring out your inner Jenna, sans the specs, below.

I am not a huge fan of the Lulu Frost for J.Crew line. In general, I find most pieces ridiculous looking (see first image as example) and ridiculously priced for what is essentially costume jewelry. (The collaboration pieces tends to be priced higher than J.Crew's regular jewelry line.)

However, there is always a piece or two that I look twice at- thinking it is quite stunning. With the upcoming Summer 2013 collection, there are a few pieces (like the bracelets) that look quite lovely.

What are your thoughts on the Lulu Frost for J.Crew line? Do you own of the exclusive pieces? Do you think they are worth the purchase? If so, please share your take on the line! :)
