EVERYONE HAS THEIR EYE on Emily Ratajkowski’s Instagram account for posts of what she’s wearing while strolling around or walking her dog in New York. Whether she’s wearing a string bikini or a cropped top and shorts, sundress or sultry cocktail number, she’s turning heads both online and in person. Her necklaces recently caught my eye.
She was, of course, on trend with a choker dangling with charms and then another pendant beneath it. But it wasn’t just that her neck was encircled with some of the most popular directions in jewelry — close-to-the-throat necklaces and layering — but that both were meaningful. Take FoundRae’s Sleek Collar. It is in 18K gold, reminiscent of an Omega chain, and you can add any pendant to it from the collection. Emrata chose the Initial Diamond Butterfly wings and Beth Hutchen’s reinterpretation of the famous antique and vintage rebus Qu’hier, with a plus sign and the translation “today more than yesterday and less than tomorrow” from the famous poem by Rosemonde Gérard, who was married to Edmond Rostand, author of Cyrano de Bergerac.
She wore two other pendants; it’s hard to tell exactly what they are in the photo.

In another selfie on IG, she wore the FoundRae choker and the unknown pendants that fell beneath, with an Azlee fingerprint coin pendant, handmade in Los Angeles using 18K recycled gold. Founder Baylee Zwart originally created the charm for a friend to be worn every day and close to the heart.
