You don’t need a flick about a demented ballerina to explore both your sweet and sexy sides.

Dance your way into Margaret Elizabeth’s jewelry instead.

Designer Meg Galligan toes the line between timeless elegance and sensuality. Her hand-strung wrap necklaces (in bright turquoise or coral, dramatic black onyx, or freshwater pearl) can be draped and tiered over a plunging cocktail dress or worn as a demure six-strand stunner over a crew neck.

Galligan also makes dangly bezel earrings and gem-studded vermeil bracelets and rings that are as gorgeous as soloists as they are stacked. For the holidays, we recommend her Sparkle and Silk series of Chinese crystal necklaces, with interchangeable ribbons that range from innocent azure to center-stage fuchsia.

We think you’ll like the turn out.
