favorite thing of the week: "alexander girard"
last night at barneys new york, I attended the launch of todd oldham and kiera coffee's new book, "alexander girard". as a lover of bold color combinations, I have always admired girard's work and was thrilled to learn todd and kiera had compiled all of his works in this fantastic book.

the collection of elizabeth taylor
this weekend I previewed the elizabeth taylor collection that will be auctioned next week at Christie's. the jewels were absolutely jaw-dropping and her collection is quite extensive. you can check out images/details of all pieces here or go in person until december 13. its absolutely worth braving the crowds to see this major sparkle!
my absolute favorite piece, a bvlgari diamond and emerald necklace with an emerald and diamond pendant brooch. oh and don't worry, she had a ring to match!

favorite thing of the week: colorful gemstone bracelets!
now that my holiday trunk shows are over, I've been spending a lot of time in my studio finalizing my spring/summer collections and working on some other new collections. one collection I couldn't wait until 2012 to debut was my multicolor gemstone bracelet collection! each piece is one-of-a-kind and they are available online here or at NEST Interiors in Chelsea.
here are a few of the bracelets!:
pink quartz and black spinel bracelet
chrysoprase, labradorite, spinel, and multicolor chalcedony bracelet
