Who says piercings and body modification jewellery can’t be ladylike? Especially since pearls are the ultimate in “I’m a lady!” accessories.

This lip cuff by Chrishabana for Opening Ceremony actually takes its inspiration less from decorum and more from Dracula. The site notes, “Stark, elegant, and with a cultish appeal, CHRISHABANA for Opening Ceremony adss a series of sleek, effeminate lip rings. Taking inspiration from vampire imagery and punk themes, these lip rings make use of beautiful freshwater pearls and cubic zirconia.”

It’s made of 14k gold plated over sterling silver with the aforementioned freshwater pearls, and sells for USD$190.
