The Week in Review

April 10, 2016 by WendyB

In case you missed it, here’s what was on the blog this week.

  • Monday: My diamond ring won second place in its category at the JCK Jewelers’ Choice Awards.
  • Tuesday: I enjoyed doing this interview with InDesign.
  • Wednesday: What’s Instagram going to do if we all start wearing these vintage tops?
  • Thursday: Wearing Ossie Clark to see Shakespeare.
  • Friday: I’m putting my foot down. No more consignment. This is a business, not a charity!

Over on Instagram, I offered an in-depth look at the diamond and platinum micro studs that are April’s Jewel of the Month.

Speaking of those studs, and diamonds in general, I met with a new New York-based manufacturer this week. It looks like they’ll be able to do some cool things for me. I liked the other work they showed me, but after looking at it, I said I’d be providing my own diamonds. “What quality do you use?” they asked.  “F color, VS clarity for pavé and small pieces,” I said.  They were like, “YOU USE THAT HIGH QUALITY ALL THE TIME?!” What can I say? My gorgeous clients deserve great things.
