Jewellery Week in Las Vegas
It was a wonderful jewellery week in Las Vegas at JCK and Couture shows. I visited my terrific suppliers and made friends with some new ones. I had a great time with Jaclyn and Anzie Stein from Montreal at the ANZIE booth at Couture. Look out for some great new designs from ANZIE coming soon […]
Beyoncé Celebrity Jewellery Style
One can’t fail to notice the endless images of who wore what to whichever event. Be it music awards – Beyoncé, film awards – Meryl Streep, TV awards – Reese Witherspoon or just paparazzi shots – Meghan Markle we seem to have a guilty pleasure in seeing celebrities both megawatt and not so well known […]
Wedding Style
It’s that time of year when many couples plan their summer weddings and every year seems to have a look and feel all of its own. So what’s new this year for wedding style? I am not a fan of the “What’s hot and what’s not” type of articles that you read in magazines, I have never followed fashion and […]
New Year Style
What’s your new year style? We are a mere two weeks into this year and we can feast our eyes on award ceremonies and red-carpet galas, a glimmer of sparkle in a dreary, January, aprés Christmas funk.

The standard west coast, wet weather wear […]
September – the month of the Sapphire birthstone
September says Sapphire, not just the blue variety as seen in Kate Middleton’s engagement ring but a whole kaleidoscope of colours – pink, golden, yellow, orange, plum, purple even white. One of the most beautiful sapphires is a Paparadscha – a pinkish orange to orange-pink colour with vivid saturation. Sapphire is a great choice for […]
August – the month of the Peridot birthstone
I really enjoy August, it feels like the last full month of summer. The Peridot birthstone reminds me of a wonderful aperitif that I love to drink on a hot summer day – Midori – a Japanese melon liqueur. The colour is so impossibly green and served in a chilled glass it has all the taste and magic of summer. Get your […]
