It is Award Season!!

The only great thing about freezing in New York in the middle of January is sitting on your couch with a warm cup of tea, under a blanket, and watch the Golden Globes. It happens to be my favorite award show, mainly for the red carpet. The dresses and jewelry worn by the celebs kick off the spring season and what we can expect to add to our list of "must-have" items. It was all about understated elegance this year due to the hard times our country is facing. Dresses were mainly in neutral tones with pops of red and bright colors. Jewelry was simple yet bold with the occasional "WOW" necklaces. Earrings were large stud drops and chandelier is still in the mix. Necklaces went from long layered diamonds by the yard to the oversized, eye popping collar necklaces worn by Eva Mendes and Beyonce. They were showstoppers! Turquoise was the color of choice if you went for it, otherwise is was all about diamonds diamonds and more diamonds. Stacking bangles or bracelets was still a huge trend last night. No matter how it was worn, it was about picking 2 of the 3 to wear and not all at the same time - earring, necklace, bracelet. Large yet sophisticated style was eloquently portrayed on all.

Let 27 Facets help you get the look (in real of faux) and we will make you become a show stopper at your next event. Call or email us anytime!

Lots of diamonds and rubies!

Welcome to 2009!!

Happy New Year!! We are excited to kick off 2009 with all of our amazing and loyal clients as well as those who are new to 27 Facets. December was a busy month and we needed some fun in the sun. Now back in New York with a glow, the new year started off with the Accessory show where we saw tons of color to accent your outfit. This year will be filled with statement making necklaces and bold bangles, the more the better! With the economy today, we say buy something with multi functions - A necklace that can be worn as a bracelet/anklet/headband or something that can function from day to night. It is about smart investments (at any budget) and to get the most out of your purchase.

We have tons of new jewelry ideas for your special occasions so call or email us for pictures.

Lots of diamonds and rubies!
