June is here, along with so many other awaited things like our GENDERLESS COLLECTION!! We have officially launched Ego Check, in collaboration with Giancarlo, and we couldn’t have done it without you guys!
This collection has such a beautiful backstory and reason behind creating it. Jewelry is meant for anyone, and everyone should feel good wearing it. We wanted to create jewelry that’s completely genderless. We created this line of jewelry to defy all stereotypes, gender norms, and to be able to switch and swap your jewelry, because jewelry is for anyone and everyone.
June is also Men’s Mental Health Awareness Month, if you ’ re ever needing a safe place to talk you can always DM / Email us. We thank anyone participating in this month’s content mission, and we realize the courage it takes to deconstruct stereotypes especially on Social Media.
Love, Kadee Social Media Coordinator, Cut + Clarity
"Come on, girls it's time to get up! We have a lot to do." These were my and my sister's most dreaded words. They came weekly at 9 am on Saturday mornings for almost every Saturday of my childhood. Knowing that the 'lot to do' meant cleaning the house wasn't what irked me the most. It was the fact that my brother didn't have to partake in any of the cleaning chores and to add insult to injury, we had to clean his room as well. "He's a boy!" was my mother's frustrated response when I would talk back or get mad about why I had to do something he didn't or wasn't allowed to go somewhere he was. My mother raised us with the notion that being a boy was so much easier than being a girl and this laid the foundation for much of my ambition and career today.
When I got pregnant, I swore I would never teach anything of the sort to my child and that I would keep these old-fashioned ideals far away. At home, my husband and I split the chores evenly, and we like to think we are very conscious of gender stereotypes to avoid yet, Mika still comes home touting her male classmate's smarts and most recently, asking me about who she may marry as if that is the most crucial role to play. Since embarking on this journey to deconstruct gender norms with Giancarlo, I've become acutely aware of n, but I've learned so much about how ion to be in for both men + women. I and keep doing the work that matters

"Let us break free from societal constraints and embrace our individuality. ...jewelry has no gender!!! @by.giancarlo Los Angeles Creative
This June let's break barriers and lets be fully self expressed. Our collection launches for Men's Mental Health awareness month and we have some amazing partnerships in store.
MAMA ASL x OTG
Off-The-Grid Missions (OTG) is a beacon of hope for those who have been marginalized and left behind. A BIPOC, Women and Deaf-founded Non-Profit Organization dedicated to providing Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing individuals access to life-saving resources in high-risk and remote regions worldwide. Off-The-Grid Missions empower and protect those who have been forgotten. It is an honor to partner with them and Deaf Actress, Millicent Simmonds, once again to offer our Mama ASL charm in Sterling silver and donate our profits to support their vital mission.
Our stories are unique and beautiful yet we often feel like we are not worthy enough to share them Continuing from last years "Year of Self Love" we are excited to introduce Clarity Chats. Clarity Chats is a safe + anonymous place for us to share our stories without fear of judgment Our goal is to realize that we are not alone, and to foster deeper conversations around sensitive topics that promote empathy + understanding. Join us in creating a more open and understanding world, one story at a time.

June is Men’s Mental Health Awareness Month, and we are excited to kick off the month with Giancarlo, an LA based creator + artist. Together we are unwrapping gender stereotypes and shedding light on what life has been like living under these assumptions. "As a Latino man you grow up learning Machismo, and about having tough skin and how to be the Man of the house,”
Giancarlo quickly learned that he didn’t fit into the typical male roll because of love of fashion, jewelry and his creative hairstyles.
GC said “All of those things [fashion, jewelry and creativity] I used to make me feel at home with myself, I use those things to express myself.”
Last year C + C focused on Self-Love, and this year we’re focusing on Self-Expression. Expressing emotions is broad and doesn’t have to look the same for everyone. Whether you cry to a Romcom or you create art…you need to express.
In the U.S 6+ million men have depression, 3+ million men have anxiety, and 4x more men die by suicide than women. Yet Men are still less likely to receive mental health support. Together let’s destigmatize Men’s mental health.
Our Genderless collection is here, which means we’ll be implementing grays, blacks, and whites. We’ll be playing with textures such as stones and natural elements. Think Silver Jewelry, Neutrals, Blazers, and playing into your Masculine or Feminine Energy.
