9 Multi-Functional Jewelry Pieces That Will Amaze You

by Zoe Weiner

Our jewelry is basically our armor. It can update an outfit, make a statement (like, "Hey, world! I'm engaged!") and give us all a little bit of bling-induced confidence when we need it most. But as amazing as jewelry can be on its own, some pieces go way above and beyond with two-for-one functions that will blow your mind. Enter: Multi-furpose jewelry.

Sure, a necklace is great and pretty and whatever… but a necklace that doubles as a vibrator? Or as a full-blown weapon? Now, we’re talking. There is honestly nothing better than when fashion and function come together to create pieces we actually want to wear and use, and multi-purpose jewelry does exactly that. Some of it helps make our lives easier (like a phone charging bracelet) while others are straight-up badass (like the aforementioned “necklace knife.”)

Regardless of their intended use (or, in almost all of these cases, uses), these nine pieces of multi-functional jewelry will not only upgrade your wardrobe, but will basically change your life. After seeing these sneaky, yet stylish items, you’ll never want to buy a regular old necklace/ring/bracelet ever again.

4. The Pendant That Monitors Your Health

This handy little pendant can be worn as a bracelet, ring or necklace, and tracks all kinds of health data like your sleep patterns and menstrual cycles. It also wakes you up in the morning, and features a fun (/kind of annoying, but totally useful) "inactivity alarm" to remind you to keep moving.

You'll never have to try to measure an inch with the tip of your thumb again. (Trust me, that is never an accurate way to do it.)

9. A Necklace That Is Also A Pen

This sneaky, but dainty, gold necklace opens up into a black ink pen. You will never be without a pen again (which is perfect for getting phone numbers IRL with).
