Jason Bolden is lending his styling prowess to a new collaboration.
The celebrity stylist who works with Alicia Keys, Sabrina Carpenter, Storm Reid, Cynthia Erivo and others, is joining forces with Australian accessories label 8 Other Reasons to create a 25-piece jewelry collection with styles across earrings, necklaces and bracelets all priced at less than $100.
Bolden said he looked to his experience as a stylist to create a collection of what he and 8 Other Reasons designer Charles Lichaa described as “elevated essentials.”
“I just went for my quintessential uniform where I like timeless, chic, smart and something with pure personality,” Bolden said. “It was just a perfect collaboration with 8 Other Reasons because it can speak to that, so that was kind of my foundation and fundamental inspiration for the collection.”

The collaboration aims to offer designer-inspired pieces at an affordable price. The pieces are made with materials like 22-karat plated gold, rhodium, stainless steel and cubic zirconia.
Bolden and Lichaa named the Bolden Hoops as a standout style from the collection. The earrings are designed in a rigged silhouette with cubic zirconia baguettes, which is meant to offer an updated take on a classic diamond hoop. There are also several other statement earrings, such as a stainless-steel style designed in a melting effect, and a gold-plated swirl style.
“We’ve been around for 10 years now and we’re constantly evolving as a brand and growing with our customers and growing with our aesthetic,” Lichaa said. “The perfect way to describe this [collection] is elevated essentials — just like how we’re taking a spin on that approach with Jason. The brand is about understanding and knowing our customer and knowing what they want. This collection does that and it shows 8 Other Reasons in a new light and an elevated way.”
This is 8 Other Reasons’ latest major collaboration this year. Last month, the accessories label debuted a collection with influencer Morgan Riddle.
