*******************It’s December 1st……and with the Holiday season and New Years Eve only days away……can you believe how soon it came upon us…….where did September go?……………It’s time to think of all things GLITTERY, SPARKLY and WONDERFUL!………..The Holiday look that I love best is a simple sweater with a velvet pant or black sequin skirt and marvelous “Diamond” jewelry. My favorite pieces are all pictured above, but I must forewarn…..some of the colors are already very limited or sold out………….J271864, is the watch which has two rows of metal bead borders at each side of the band, and three rows of faceted crystals in the center of the band. The oblong curved face of the watch also has a row of tiny crystals surrounding it. This looks like an estate piece that could have cost thousands of dollars if it were real diamonds…..This one can fool many. It has a 100% approval review. It doesn’t get better than that….The gold and crystal combination has sold out, but the silver tone and crystal is still avail. I was told many many years ago by a famous jeweler that in his opinion “important” diamonds should be set in platinum, which as you know is a white metal and close in color to silver. I asked why, and he said because it sets off and shows the color and brilliance of the diamond at its’ best……at its’ purest. Of course whether it is set in silver or yellow gold is a matter of preference, and both look beautiful………J296894, is the Brooch which also has the look of a very important estate piece. What makes this wonderful is the fact the the brooch is BOMBED, meaning the surface has a curve. It is sunken in the center…..elevates to the center and drops down again to the edge of the pin. The crystals are also set to exaggerate the shape, and the metal work is superb……….The LARGE center PEARL creates the MAGIC and sets this pin above all others….The colors avail are the silver tone shown above and the gold tone shown in the photo to the upper left…….Unfortunately the Gunmetal version of the pin has sold out…Pins have taken a back seat for a while…..but…..this is so special that all you will receive is compliments on its’ uniqueness….It looks like a brooch a Maharaja might have worn……..At the bottom of a V neck line on a black velvet top, or perched on a shoulder makes a statement of pure glamour…………………The crystal encrusted “Shrimp” earring, J317111, is avail in both clip and pierced. Again, the metal work is superb, and the graduating crystals give just enough sparkle. These can be worn day or night. They are avail in the yellow gold and crystal, silver and crystal and the wonderful GUNMETAL and Black diamond…..The QVC photo is really bad and does not do the GM earring any justice, but if you own the broach on the GM you know how the earring will look……………..The reversible CROSS, J317110, has been very popular and is now sold out in the gunmetal, but is still avail in the silver tone and gold tone, both with clear crystals on one side and solid metal on the other. The crystal side of the gold and silver has a pearl at its’ center, and the metal side of the gold and silver has an emerald cut black jet. This makes the cross very versatile and can easily be worn both day and night……………….The DROP earring, J317115, in the photo to the upper left has a beautiful faceted drop at the very bottom in CLEAR on the gold and crystal combination, and Jet on the GM combination [not shown above]. The “stem” of the earring is made of two tiny “branches” totally paved, and the bottom drop has a cap that is also studded with crystals. There is a great deal of detail to this earring which really sets it apart. The clear drop happens to look wonderful with the 72 inch long glass faceted bead necklace that many of you own……..The earring and that necklace worn on Winter White is truly beautiful!……………………The CRYSTAL BRACELET, J317113, is constructed in a way that it can self adjust to different size wrists by sliding on the thin metal bands beneath. This bracelet is also BOMBED which makes it very special, and again sets it apart from many other crystal bracelets……It is also avail in the silver tone or the gold tone………………………….These pieces were all designed to be worn TOGETHER……..Do not be afraid to GLITTER ………Evenings out give all women the opportunity to SHINE…….as they should!…………………………………………..Happy Holidays………….enjoy………………..much Love…………..
