STATEMENT PIECES\u00a0<\/strong>CAN COMPLETE AN OUTFIT
\n<\/strong>AND CREATE A SIGNATURE LOOK.\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n

Inspired by culture, art, and fashion, this edition brings to life the essence and importance of jewelry in everyday use.<\/p>\n

In a category all its own, jewelry helps convey the story of one\u2019s own personal style, illuminating the repertoire of constant self-expression and the driving influences behind vanity and the pursuit of one\u2019s own look.<\/p>\n

But it\u2019s becoming more difficult to demonstrate our \u201cindividuality\u201d with\u00a0the transient nature of fashion trends. The world feasts its eyes on the decadence and allure of runway shows and luxury brands.\u00a0 Forgetting that the \u201cHYPE of the scene\u201d isn\u2019t what we really seek when trying to stay true to ourselves. Taking a look back at the classics of style, we come to recognize that fashion and trends are transient.\u00a0 Although, we must never forget that the inspiration for these current ideas come from the yester years; the good old times; the glory days!<\/p>\n

This season let\u2019s explore the importance of jewelry as a fashion accessory.\u00a0 With a devoted and identifiable following in mega fashion trends and designer luxury distribution, jewelry has somehow taken a back seat to hand bags, shoes, and other forms of frivolous fashion expenditures. With sky rocketing prices and a still weak economy we really should take a step back and look at the big picture, investing in items\u00a0with intrinsic value.<\/p>\n

The driving force behind the resurgence of statement jewelry came in the form of the blockbuster movie \u201cThe Great Gatsby\u201d by director Baz Luhrmann,\u00a0a tribute to the book by F. Scott Fitzgerald. This film gives us an inside look at the exuberance of the roaring 20\u2019s, a time where more was more, and quality reigned over quantity. Created by the house of Tiffany and Co., the real stars of the film were the decadent jewelry worn throughout. The attention to the lavishness and grandeur of the pieces is a flawless portrayal of how jewelry sets the standard for the uber-wealthy and their designs become timeless.\u00a0 With that being said, we take inspiration from many different decades of fashion and style, and begin to blend the statement pieces with fashion garments.<\/p>\n

Chanel was never seen or photographed without her layers of pearl strands, or the Duchess of Windsor without her signature brooches. And let\u2019s not even try to imagine Audrey Hepburn in her signature little black Givenchy dress with out her diamond pieces. See the importance of the proper jeweled accessory, and how it seals the flawless look of these classic icons?\u00a0 The trick to keeping the styled eye refined is to invest properly in timeless pieces that always convey a level of importance. Jewelry has and forever will be a means of individuality and self-expression. Think about this the next time you spend thousands of dollars on the \u201cIT\u201d bag or that \u201cmust have\u201d pair of shoes you can\u2019t walk in. Yes, life has its guilty little pleasures, but they should also come with the knowledge that your money\u00a0has been well spent.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
