Channel Frida Kahlo’s Artistic Passion with These Quirky Earrings

By Margherita Cole on November 13, 2019

Are you stuck in a creative block? Sometimes what's needed is a little pick-me-up. Fortunately, the Yellow Owl Workshop has created a line of quirky earring sets to inspire artists and art enthusiasts alike. Whether you're a painter, a graphic designer, or a photographer, putting on some of Yellow Owl Workshop's jewelry could instantly boost your creative confidence.

Founded by Christine Schmidt in colorful San Francisco, Yellow Owl Workshop is notable for a “sophisticated, yet playful aesthetic.” And looking at their earrings, it's easy to tell why that is. Each pair of their cloisonné petite studs are a mismatched set, featuring 22-karat gilded frames that complement each other as well as the wearer.

Among Yellow Owl Workshop's batch of creative earrings is the Frida Kahlo & Milagro set, which includes a stylized rendering of Frida's iconic portrait, and one milagro—a religious folk charm traditionally used for healing purposes and as votive offerings in Mexico. Alternatively, for the designers out there, the RGB & CMYK earrings consist of one stud for each color system. (An excellent way to show off your color design knowledge!)

The best part about wearing mismatched earrings is that you embrace a slightly different style whichever way you turn your head. For instance, when you wear the Camera Earrings, you've got vintage glamor on the polaroid side, and modern-cool on the digital side. It's an effortless way to keep your outfit looking fresh all day long.

You can find each of these artistic mismatched earring sets in My Modern Met Store.
