Beware of Outlet Malls  

Sunday, December 6, 2009


This holiday season its especially easy to get swept into Outlet Mall shopping. Unbeknownst to most of the public, most designers have special lines they sell only at the Outlet Mall. Ann Taylor, Brooks Brothers and Coach are three examples of designers that sell a "separate" line manufactured especially for their "outlet" stores. Be wary when paying discounted prices online for these goods which could be counterfeits. Opt instead for quality construction and good design without the overpriced label.

Splurge!  

Sunday, September 20, 2009

If I could choose one word to inspire you with your wardrobe this Fall and Winter it would be "Splurge". Accessories are plentiful in rich vibrant colors and extravagant textures. Selective purchases will inject your personal style with a certain flair.


If you can only make one splurge this season - try one of our fabulous cocktail rings. They're solid - most are created in .925 sterling silver. If you haven't indulged yourself in fashion jewelry recently - the cut and quality of our stones is superb. Most are priced about $55. These would make a delightful gift and yes, Sterling Silver can be sized.

How to wear the trend...
No matter if your treat yourself to some fleur de lis bling for Saints games or a cocktail ring keep in mind that you should only wear one piece at a time. Opt for either the necklace or earrings near your face and only wear one of these cocktail rings per hand. Too much of a good thing is just that - too much of a good thing!
