Each week Gem features one standout piece from a local shop. Whether it’s a jacket, necklace, or handbag, it’s on our have-to-have list.

What: Leave it to the fashion plates at Vintage By Misty to scrounge up disembodied Chanel buttons and transform them into costume jewelery. The gorgeously curated downtown vintage shop has been sporadically turning out these handmade, adjustable-size baubles — as well as an earring version — and VBM’s recently-opened Etsy storefront now carries them, too.

Where: Vintage By Misty

Cost: $75

Style this Gem after the jump.

Style It: Let the Chanel ring be the focal point of the outfit by adding minimal accessories, and a pop of color with a studded leather tangerine mini handbag from Milly.
By dressing it up with gray neutrals, like this frayed tweed Lanvin dress (an homage of sorts to Chanel’s penchant for using traditional menswear fabrics in feminine pieces) and silvery snakeskin ballet flats with metal-capped toes from Giuseppe Zanotti.
