Imelda Marcos Fights Jewelry Sale The Jewelry Weblog I already reported about the sale of some of Imelda Marcos' super-duper high end jewelry. (See Imelda Marcos Loses Her Bling). Looks like she is still fighting in the courts to stop the

King Tut - Jewelry Fashion Icon? The Jewelry Weblog Who would have thought a young king would have so much appeal and power so many thousands of years after his death? According to MSNBC, " the king remains a fashion icon,
... Gauge Earrings -
So you are walking through the mall, thinking about picking out a new set of diamond earrings, until you see a young rebellious looking kid donning these things in his ears that stretch the whole quite a few inches. Despite the manners your momma gave you, you gape- jaw slack, eyes wide, and brows together at this crazy sight. What is in his ears? And how did he do it?
Gauges. Gauges are tribal inspired earrings that are actually objects used to stretch a pierced
... They Call It Ugly Jewelry... -
But I beg to differ.
Recently I came across Ugly Jewelry. I find the pieces to give off a vintage vibe, and they are definitely unique but why, WHY? Why call your company Ugly Jewelry? It perplexes me, but I find that the collection is so different and sentimental.

I found some pearl earrings on etsy.com made by Ugly Jewelry. They are asymmetrical dangle earrings with several different colored pearls. They are extremely classy and look like something you'd find in
... True Blood: Edgy Jewelry -
By request, I decided to take a peek at the True Blood series inspired jewelry. True Blood is a series on HBO that was created by the Sookie Stackhouse novels. Keeping up with the latest Vampire Trend (Twilight, The Vampire Diaries . ya know) HBO is banking on the vampmania. It was only a matter of time before a True Blood jewelry line was created.
I am so not disappointed either. Unlike the Twilight jewelry, TB's offers a kind of edgy beauty. The main concept
... Garage Sale Vintage -
Vintage is something that seems to never go out of the style. Whether its placed on a lapel or weighs about 5 pounds and resides on your right hand; there is always a place for vintage jewelry. Brooches add a gorgeous artistic flare as well as old costume jewelry. But where do you find such pieces?
Easy! You pass up opportunities to find these little treasures on any road trip during spring, summer, and fall. Garage sales, dummy! Garage and estate sales are like the
... Take A Bite Out of Beauty: Twlight Earrings -
© Twilight Style 2010
The world of Twilight is expanding exponentially (whether we like it or not). It was only a matter of time before jewelry designers banked on the growing trend. Regardless of the series' popularity, the jewelry is definitely a beauty in its own.
With the gothic-inspired style, the Twlight Chandelier Earrings give off a sophisticated vibe. Geared more towards a formal look, the blood red swarovski crystals emit a very sexy persona, smoothed down by the delicate sterling silver wire. The
... Bracelets for Boobies -
In honor of all the strong women out there battling breast cancer, a Christina Applegate inspired bracelet has been crafted to remind us of the struggle of these beautiful women. The bracelet is sterling silver interwoven with pink suede and is fitted with a pink enamel ribbon charm as well as a heart which reads "Together we can make a difference".
It's delicate appearance creates a beautiful piece of jewelry that will not only accent a casual outfit, it also serves a purpose. 25%
... The Classic Gold Chain -
© 2010
The classic gold chain has become de rigueur in the fashion world. Nearly everything I wear requires some kind of necklace and, as accessories go, the gold chain is the most flexible thing in my jewelry box.
The only problem for me is finding the right one. I have several imperfect models including one that tangles up because it's too delicate and one from a flea market that borders on gaudy.
What I need is a nice, classic gold chain. And I'm
... Citrine Drops Unearthed -
Random finds on the web always excite me. It is the dream of every blogger to find the undiscovered site with a trove of cool items.
I was trolling for said mystery-website when I came across Amber Marie Bently, one of those mysterious and severely overpriced websites that stay in business despite all odds.
I was looking for a gold cuff. It has become an obsession of mine to find and own one, but they are shockingly expensive. I suppose with gold prices
... Cocktail Ring Heaven -
Big rings are in and I love them. They bring any outfit to life, and add something fun to even the most boring jeans and simple shirt.
Having a cocktail ring for every outfit would be fantastic, but of course stones are expensive - especially large ones.
Stefano Patriarchi makes a gorgeous golden sterling silver ring that will go with everything. The band is adjustable so it will fit most fingers.
My gold standard (no pun intended) for any piece of jewelry
... A Dash of Gold Completes the Outfit -
Edgy and daring. That's how the Presh Gold Chain Sunburst Cuffs are described on the Max & Chloe website.
Really? I wouldn't say so.
They are not black, nor is there any pointy steel hardware to be found. I think they look quite demure, and rather beautiful.
Still, I suppose it takes a certain type of person to wear a cuff in the first place - they're definitely not for everyone.
I really love the Presh cuffs. I think the color
... Amazonite: the New Turquoise -
I have this thing where I get obsessed with certain colors. Lately it's been turquoise. It's a summer thing: I always get obsessed with turquoise in the summer.
I know, you're thinking "it's April! Summer's not exactly around the corner!" This is true. Summer isn't here yet, but the promise of warm weather hangs in the air. Even though I work in an office five days of the week, I always feel like summer represents vacation time and leisurely days spent by the pool.
... Etsy for Kids -
I'm a little obsessed with Etsy.com. I get bored with the same-old, same-old jewelry styles out there, and Etsy has some really great designers.
My friend's little girl (age five) wears jewelry sometimes. She loves it. Little rings, little pendants, tiny bracelets. I admit that at first I found it disturbing - evidence that the child was growing up too fast.
But then I remembered how much I loved putting on my mother's jewelry when I was a little kid and how incredibly
... Who Keeps the Ring? -
Cheating on your fiancé is just? lame. I think we can all agree that if you're already shopping for a different model before the wedding, the long-term prospects don't look good.
Apparently John Gunther, 27, was still "shopping" when his fiancé, Danielle Cavalieri, 26, found out she wasn't the only girl in his life. She called off their engagement.
Gunther demanded back the engagement ring, which is the ultimate in classless under the circumstances, but one would think that Cavalieri would have immediately
... The Double Tour -
Rediscovering Hermes is a bit like picking up a favorite book. It hasn't changed, but you have. Still, you reconnect in all the right places.
Okay, the analogy is a little over-done, but there's truth in it.
My rediscovery of Hermes started with their watch line. I met a particularly stylish woman who had a telltale double tour leather watchband curled around her slender wrist.
It looked like a Hermes Cape Cod PM Watch. I swear it had a brown strap.
... Tierdrop Earrings -
I'll never forget shopping for my engagement ring (who could?) I went with one of my best friends, and we found the ring right away. But the store was full of beautiful things, so we kept on looking, even after the main goal was accomplished.
My friend gravitated to a grape-like arrangement of cognac diamonds in different colors. They were the most beautiful chandelier earrings I have ever seen, and with a price tag of $7500, you better believe that the store managers knew
... Sculpted Jewelry Tree for Women Jewelry -
© lu_luI've got a couple of fairly large jewelry boxes. I bought large ones not because I have tons of jewelry, but because I hate wading through the jumble of chains, earrings, pendants, bracelets, et cetera that my jewelry box almost always eventually turn into. I figured that if I have to fish out bobs and pieces through the chaos that's in the box, then let it be a big box so I at least have space to move things around.
But not with
... Brainwashed by Fashion -
In Touch Magazine is evil.
And so is In Style, and Self, and just about every other magazine that convinces me, though pretty pictures, to part with my money.
It all started with a free-giveaway contest that I lost. In Touch was giving away these amazing Viv & Ingrid Large Spiral Hoop Earrings in turquoise. I was gaga over them. I entered the drawing with visions of the glorious hoops dancing in my head.
It was not to be. I didn't win
... The Cameo Re-Imagined -
I was in an antique mall in La Jolla, California when I spotted the earrings. After touring the warehouse for the better part of an hour, I was tired and ready to leave. But then a glint of color caught my eye.
There, on the rack was a collection of Extasia earrings in every color. Beautiful, classic, colorful and absolutely stunning on, I was struck with indecision. Which ones to buy?
I was with my parents. My dad frowns on earrings (I can
... A Spring Bouquet -
It's spring and the world is exploding with color. Just yesterday I walked by an azalea bush bursting with the most beautiful, vibrant pink flowers you've ever seen.
I find myself reaching back into the recesses of my wardrobe to drag out my spring clothes and finding? well, finding that I wore them out last year, or they don't fit (too many bagels, too many rounds of dessert). I need color, vibrant color, and I need it fast.
When I have a craving
... Coral: Too Precious To Wear -
When I was in New York recently, I passed a Tiffany & Co. window with an ocean theme. I didn't think much of it - just another marketing gimmick. It turns out that the theme was a little too subtle for me: Tiffany was actually trying to make a statement.
"The theme of the window display underwater world is designed to inform the public that coral is a living thing which can account for the coral reef systems to provide food and breeding sites
... The Dog Ate My Diamond -
My husband went shopping for the diamond for my engagement ring in the diamond district in New York. He and the diamond dealer were looking at stones, and the dealer kept picking them up with tweezers. Suddenly, the tweezers snapped together and the stone flew out of his grasp.
No one could find the diamond, and the entire office went into lockdown. They sealed all the doors and no one was allowed entrance or exit.
Finally, the jewelry dealer's daughter knocked on the
... Bejeweled by Kate Spade -
Kate Spade doesn't just make bags - she makes shoes, clothing, glasses, paper and yes, fantastic jewelry. Her designs are smartly simple: mimicking diamonds and gems set in yellow gold, with an old-world flair.
Of course, Spade uses glass instead of gemstones and she sets her cut glass in 12 karat gold plate. The bill for the items is consummately low. Take her Gumdrop Studs. They look like amethyst but are not, and at $38 for the pair, they're a steal.
Or the
