KEY BLING //

…in the market…

After searching high and low in my purse every single time I’ve needed my keys, I finally realized, maybe I need a new key ring. Duh. Something substantial, something to stand out. Who knew there were so many adorable key chains out there? A sampling:

Lulu Guinness, $80 // Burberry, $130 // House of Harlow 1960, $50
See by Chloe, $95 // Tory Burch, $55 // Jonathan Adler, $48
Gucci, $250 // DVF, $85 // Alexander McQueen, $95
Coach, $28 // See by Chloe, $50 // Lucky Brand, $25
ASOS, $14 // Cath Kidston, $8 // Lulu Guinness, $80
Lucky Brand, $12 // Juicy Couture, $48 // Reiss, $75

Kinda obsessed with tassels.

Do you have a fancy fun key ring?

    One of the great gifts I received when my friends all graduated last year (and I pretended I was graduating too) was a key chain that my friend had made with our college zip code and in our sorority colors so that now every time I look at my keys I think of all of them (cue awwww). But seriously, great gift. The House of Harlow 1960 bling would go fabulously well with your new iPhone case, but the coral Reiss piece stole my heart.

    Love this selection! Love reading your blog too! Funnily, I was just searching for tassel key chains yesterday! I do agree that the House of harlow totally looks like your brand – just the perfect bling and gold dazzle – loving it! Have a great week….

    I do not have a fancy key ring, but after this post I think I may need one! I go through the same thing, finding the keys in my purse–no matter how large or compact–turns out to be an ordeal every time!

    Key rings are essential! I have a key ring for my work keys with an insignia from my alma mater. When the going gets tough, sometimes I just look at it to remind me of my awesome college education and to keep my head on straight. My house keys are actually in a kate spade key wallet; I love this because it keeps them neat and if I slip my keys in my pocket, they’re not jabbing me in the leg. It also makes it easy to find them in your purse. Highly recommended if you’re looking for something like that!

    Also, Mackenzie Horan’s new shop featured monogrammed leather key fobs that are just simple and classic looking. I’d probably go that route if I didn’t use my key wallet.

    These are so cute! Suddenly my mini-gym card key tag just isn’t cutting it… love the Lulu Guinness lipstick.

    I love these, especially the reiss one, because it`s a classic style. But also the DVF, which is really cute (Furla has some bag styles too) and the Lucky and finally Tory Burch!
    I tend to go for minimalistic “key” pieces however: less is more.

    Great idea for a post! Love the DVF key ring! If you get a good one they’ll last forever, I’ve got a leather one from about 10 years ago! Hope you had a great time at the zoo and in SD, I still can’t believe how warm it was this weekend!

    I’ve been looking for a nice key chain for so long now! I’m obsessed with the Hermes fringe one, but it’s a bit over my budget. ha! The See by Chloe is so cute!

    mmmmm. I used to have a Trusardi Italia key ring. Where o where did that lovely go???
    Fun post and MY. That House of Harlow oldy but goodie!!!!!!!

  20. TheWhitList says

    I feel like you read my mind. I have been looking for a key ring the last few weeks. I have a birthday coming up and all I want is a key ring (weird, I know). Thanks for all the ideas!

    I have that cath kidston keychain but in navy! I got it during my semester in London so it always reminds me of that whenever I take it out!

    Fun post! I have a Tiffany’s key ring from my honey engraved with “All the Way”…my favorite song. I’m loving the House of Harlow and the Chloe tassel. But I need to lighten my load as it is. Tassels can’t be that heavy, right?

    I would choose either the House of Harlow or the Reiss. Flipping adorable! I have a very old key ring but I love it so much I’ve never changed it. I don’t even remember where it’s from!

  27. Drew {Coral Cafe} says

    I have seriously been on the hunt for the perfect key ring and have had no such luck! Thanks for all of the fabulous choices! I’m a sucker for the tassels too!

    I want some key bling. Gym card and grocery card hardly qualify as bling. Love the Reiss one. I could probably get me a wallet with that money! :)

  29. Tamra {ever swoon} says

    I think the HoH one is my fav! Great round up. I haven’t had a key ring in a while, I guess not driving a car kind of makes keys not as fun. Time to spice it up a bit!
