With a knack for repurposing, and a passion for artistry, Melinda Maria turned her childhood obsession — making jewelry from whatever she could get her hands on — into a successful global brand. The designer takes pride in creating gorgeous pieces that make women feel "beautiful and confident.” Her rings, necklaces, bangles, cuffs, and earrings feature lots of delicate filigree, glittery gemstones in striking color combinations, uneven edges, hammed textures, and asymmetrical shapes. With a list of celebrity fans that includes Kate Hudson, Eva Longoria, and Nicole Richie, it's no wonder Maria has been dubbed "Hollywood's Bling Queen."
