Shepard Fairey, The Jewelry Line

Obey EarringsKristin Davis may have just decided to launch a fashion collection, but we don’t really care.

Instead, we’re far more fascinated by the latest project from graffiti legend Shepard Fairey: A collection of hipster jewelry inspired by his iconic OBEY prints.

The line has necklaces and earrings, and seems inoffensive but still really weird. How can you be protesting mass consumerism and creating it at the same time?

Maybe it’s not so surprising, considering graffiti babe Claw Money has her own handbag line, and Fafi just did a makeup collection for M.A.C. Meanwhile, Fairey’s other project - a series of OBAMA graphics that you’ve probably seen everywhere - feel a little more inspiring.

The Obama graphics have been all over the support beams and other various concrete construction around the SF Bay Bridge for the past few months. I never knew for sure they were the "Obey" guy, I thought it was a copycat.

Anyway, I think they look cool and now that I know they're the real deal? Even cooler.
