There's nothing new about star earrings, but Marc Jacobs may have used them as inspiration for something
very modern: a pair of star-shaped purple earbuds, included in this Spring's Marc by Marc Jacobs tech toys.
Refresher course: See last season's heart-shaped headphones from Marc, DVF, and WeSC!
The only new pair of headphones created for Marc's spring season, the gadgets look like giant star studs - or even star barrettes - from far away, and match the gray-purple hue used in this spring's MMJ prints, and the Marc Jacobs collection's purple ginghams.

Besides being cute, the earbuds are an easy way to bring some brightness up to your face without using super-saturated lipstick or bold eyeshadow - although if you're a fan of Marc by Marc's sassy Spring collection, you're probably not worried about rocking a little color.
