New from Philip Crangi
Giles & Brother by Philip Crangi necklace and ring, and Philip Crangi for Vera Wang necklace I don’t think anything can ever top the pieces Philip Crangi did for Vera Wang (I’m still kicking myself in the butt for not investing in one of them — they were SO gorgeous!). Thankfully the jewelry designer just … Continue reading “New from Philip Crangi”

I thought the trend would go away with the end of summer, but surprisingly there are a bunch of paisley-flecked pieces in a number of fall 2009 … Continue reading “Trend: Paisley”
Monica Rich Kosann Jewelry
I saw this collection at Barneys New York and it really took my breath away. Monica Rich Kosann is a photographer, which is why these pieces make sense and are so special. This is real jewelry that is stylish, hip and beautiful – not at all cheesy. There a a lot of jewelry with photos … Continue reading “Monica Rich Kosann Jewelry”
