You Say It's Your Birthday

Garnet is the traditional birthstone for the month of January. Here are a few interesting facts about this stone for those who celebrated birthdays this month...

Not for the Faint of Heart

Angela Cummings is one of a small group of well-known designers (Jean Schlumberger, Paloma Picasso and Elsa Peretti) who made her reputation with Tiffany & Co. during the 1970’s. Known widely for her flowing organic shapes, and freeform interpretations, Cummings broke the “rules” of high-end jewelry with her use of bold colored gemstones and alternative materials such as wood.

A Brand Nude Year

Sunday night, I beat the winter doldrums by watching the sun shine on the Hollywood set at the 2012 Golden Globes. I truly love awards show season, especially the red carpet – not only to see all the fabulous gowns and jewels, but to spot trends. I’m happy to say, that this year, jewelry was front and center!

This season belonged to the nude dress. The color is the essence of elegance and simplicity but also begs to be paired with bolder accessory choices. Elle MacPherson, for example, stepped out in a stunner - a beautiful, nude Zac Posen gown that became even more of a statement when accessorized with her numerous sparkling, colored bangles and over-sized gold earrings. Charlize Theron also walked the red carpet in nude – a daring sculpted dress by Dior with a dangerously high slit. As for her jewels, Charlize wore Cartier and adorned herself with a very special vintage 1920’s Cartier headpiece - tres chic!
