Freshie and Zero’s fabulous lariat necklace is just….too lovely for words.
Even more with earrings. If you are the matchy kind of gal. . . there are lots of ways to go with that! HAVE FUN mixing and matching!
Chocolate
Posted On: 07.29.2010 | Posted In: Artists, Jewelry |
Or Water for Chocolate specifically, that’s the name of this bracelet. And I love it. I love it sitting on the table. I love it in my jewelry box, and I love to wear it. Every little stone, each little piece has a story to tell. The talented Margaret Thurman and the artists at Echo of the Dreamer created it and some other lovelies, and I must admit – they are among my favorites. Not that I have favorites. But if I DID, this bracelet just might be one. No maybe this onyx and agate bracelet -
Or MAYBE the one that recalls my love of all things beachy. Do you spy the ring? Ahh – go look, report back!

Since August is a HUGE wedding month, you may well have anniversary and wedding gifts yet to send. Any occasion is more festive with champagne. Any occasion more memorable when the honorees have handblown toasting flutes, like these from Mark Rosenbaum at Rosetree Glass
Or this chic shape from Tom Stoenner’s Hudson Valley glass studio.
Toast the honoree! Cheers!
Diggin’ the earrings!

These fabulous pearl and antique gold earrings are so, so perfect! Elisabetta Ricciardi’s handcrafted collection reflects old world craftsmanship with a decidedly modern vibe. 
The quite fabulous and colorful creations of the very popular Ayala Bar more your style?
Andrea Barnett’s circle chain earrings are enchanting, if I say so myself. And I do.
Secret: Different earrings = different look, pretty much same outfit. Do it. Get yourself some hand-crafted artisan designed earrings.
A COCKTAIL ring-like the Bachelorette!
Posted On: 06.22.2010 | Posted In: Jewelry |
If you are a Bachelorette watcher . . . OK, you don’t have to admit your guilty pleasure! Anyway, say what you will, the girl can wear a cocktail ring. And she does! At every single cocktail party. A.L.W.A.Y.S. Ali + cocktail party = cocktail ring.
We’ve got fingers-FULL of fabulous cocktail rings – what an easy way to take your look from day to evening, or to liven up your little black dress. There are lots more fun places than cocktail parties to wear them – don’t be limited here by the name and Ali’s affinity for wearing them to the cocktail parties.
Elisabetta Ricciardi has some stunning rings, lovin’ this cluster ring right now – and one’s even on sale!
My sister the photographer really loves Cynthia Bloom’s button jewelry – in fact she wore this much-commented-on ring to her book club last week. I’m pretty sure she wore a Milonga style button necklace with. Pretty.
Lilly Barrack has a fine hand when it comes to cocktail rings! This herkimer diamond with aquamarine is pretty, and there are more in with coffee-colored or green accent stones.
Andrea Justine Stratton of AJS Design Studio brings her exotic eye to eclectic collection. LOVIN’ this persian turquoise one.
We LOVE that so many of these fabulous rings are adjustable. You can share with your sister, or your daughter, or your friend….if you are a sharing type of gal!
Father’s Day! Bloody Marys for all!
Posted On: 06.11.2010 | Posted In: Glass Art |
Celebrating for our Daddy has always meant Bloody Marys. When we were little girls, Daddy served up our own Virgin Bloody Mary’s spiced just for our growing tastes, while the ‘grown-ups’ enjoyed the real deal. So on this and every Father’s Day, we will mix up a pitcher full of Bloody Mary’s and drink a toast to Grandy and the best Bloody Mary on the planet!
. Tom Stoenner’s hand blown glasses show off the prettiest Mary of all!
Toast Dad!
