New for this week is a group of pretty chandelier pendants. They all have matching earrings but don’t necessarily need to be paired together. A larger statement pendant, as a few of these are, may be better paired with a stud or simple drop earring. I LOVE wearing a necklace with a long drop like no. 5, the Penelope Pendant, with a deep v-neck or a simple strapless dress. I would wear a bigger piece like this for the rehearsal dinner or wedding and then continue to wear is for months to come. A better idea may be to wear it only on special occasions, but my style philosophy tends to be a bit obsessive- I get something I like and wear it continually until it falls apart or something better comes along!
The smallest pendant of this group is a new design- no. 3 Pari Pendant. I love the super tiny Swarovski crystals embedded into the oval. Tiny crystals sparkle so beautifully and lend a vintage feel to the design. A more understated piece such as this will integrate well in many ensembles lending just enough sparkle…
No. 2, the Milla Rose Pendant, is well one of my absolute favorites! In my opinion it was meant for a deep v-neck sleeveless lace gown. Oh, so romantic! The medium sized Elsa Pendant no. 1 would be beautiful paired with lace as well. The Swarovski baroque crystal that dangles from the center bottom is gorgeous- a true reference to a light filled chandelier! With a similar sparkle is no. 4 the Claudine Pendant and its three over sized round crystals dropping from a circle of studded crystal.
Lastly, no. 6 the Stella Pendant has had my heart since I designed the earrings several months ago. A medium sized design with a classic romantic feel and a modern twist (love the over sized round Swarovski crystal at the bottom)!
This new group of pendants was inspired by customers really. We took many requests and special orders for necklaces that came from the chandelier earring designs. Any special requests, ideas, jewelry problems you can’t solve? Let me know, send me pictures, ideas, questions and we’ll create something beautiful!
Enjoy!

Best Dressed at the Golden Globes
Monday, January 18th, 2010I’m a fan of simplicity when it comes to award show fashion. Much of the fashion is so overdone that any underlying beauty gets lost. Not so with the presence of Sandra Bullock and Jennifer Aniston at last nights 2010 Golden Globes. Sandra Bullock’s Bottega Venetta rich purple gown was perfect against her skin tone and accented simply with jewels by Lorraine Schwartz. You can see a hint of her Casadei signature 3504 Triple Platform pumps peeking through at the bottom. So lovely! Jennifer Aniston was absolutely stunning in Valentino couture, Versace shoes (I love the black toe polish), and Fred Leighton jewels. An important thing about these two women is that they both seem comfortable with themselves and that in itself is beautiful. Well done, ladies!
