Past attendees have included Allure Magazine, People Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, the L.A. Times, the New York Times, Ladies Home Journal, GQ and USA Today, among other publications.
“These are the most charming earrings; they look like a starfish stud but have the added element of a slightly curved tail that extends gracefully beyond the earlobe,” says Diane Sowers, founder, designer and creator at Designs by Diane. “This unique design is perfect for the beach lover or nature lover who enjoys wearing stylish, handcrafted jewelry and I’m excited to debut them at this exclusive press/media gifting event.”
Designs by Diane’s “Shooting Star” Starfish Earrings are fashioned out of pure silver. They measure 2-1/4” long and retail for $38.00 at designsbydiane.com.
Diane designs and creates out of her jewelry studio on the beautiful island of Maui, where she is known for her tropical-inspired designs, including a line of contemporary sea glass jewelry and her “Maui” hammered fine silver necklaces and bracelets.
One of the designer’s best sellers is her signature Hammered Hoop Earrings, which are offered in different sizes and with or without pearls. The designer notes that more and more frequently, clients are requesting custom work. “I think my clients enjoy purchasing bespoke pieces that reflect their personal style and taste,” she says. “Customers will request my Double Sea Glass Ring in a specific color or material and then trust me to come up with something fun. I also recently completed a stunning, one-of-a-kind Sea Glass Collar Necklace that showcases select pieces of aqua, sea foam, green and white Maui sea glass alongside hammered silver ring and links and random sterling silver balls.”
Designs by Diane jewelry has been seen on screen in the award winning movie, “The Descendants.” A pair of Tear Drop Hoop Earrings were donned by Carla Renata (Susie) on two different episodes of the CW Network’s “Hart of Dixie,” who subsequently tweeted, “Your earrings looked lovely!” Giuliana Rancic tweeted, “Luv this bangle,” after being gifted a Gold Hook Bangle with Pixie Druzy Dust.

Diane, a former teacher from Palo Alto, California, started out making sea glass jewelry from sea glass she collected on the beaches of Maui.
