World on a String

Vanessa Hudgens and Miley Cyrus's fave arm candy isn't Zac or Nick -- it's the whole wide world! Just seen sporting Alex & Ani's amazing expandable silver and gold bracelets with Mother Earth charms, these two stylistas are not only showing off their fashion chops, they're also showing support for world hunger organizations.

Collaborating with Tonic.com, a super cool site filled with positive international news, Alex & Ani designer Carolyn Rafaelian wanted the globe-shaped charms to not only reflect everything the earth has to offer us, but also remind us all that we must preserve it! Plus, 10 percent of each sale goes to support a few international organizations that are solving world hunger issues.

The jewelry collection features expandable wire bracelets (individually for $38 or as a set of 5 for $158), a necklace (for men and women; $48) and a keychain ($38) which all contain a special Mother Earth charm. Everything is made entirely from recycled materials and made right here in the USA.

Earth friendly, people friendly -- Alex and Ani are all about friends! Now, if only we could get V-Hudg and Smiley to be our BFF's...
