New Jewelry Design: Emoticon-Heart Stud-Earring Set
When I started this blog in July 2007, I decided I wasn’t going to write about jewelry every day. In fact, I decided I wasn’t going to commit to writing about any one topic every day. Even back then, before the fashion-blogger boom, I’d already seen numerous fashion bloggers burn out after six or eight…
Are You Following Me on Facebook?
If you’re not a fan of my Facebook page, you should be! It’s often the first place I announce sales on designs from previous seasons. I also give updates on inventory levels there. For instance, I just posted that I’m down to two of my half-price, sterling-silver Little Woolf wolf (or dog) necklaces. Once those…
The Legend of the Female Pope
As I was awaiting the appearance of Francis, the new pope — and listening to a few of television’s talking heads musing about the role of women in the Catholic Church — one of my gorgeous customers messaged me to say that I needed to do some female pope rings. While rings aren’t in the…

Fall 2013’s Fur-Skirt Mini-Trend; Plus, Phind Me on Pheed!
The Fall 2013 fashion shows have wrapped up and Eric Wilson of The New York Times, who observed a lot of mini-trends on the runways, picked one that stood out to him: “… most intriguing, both in its pervasiveness and its silliness,” he wrote, “is the fur skirt.” But, Wilson wondered, why does the fur…
Harper’s Bazaar Tells Us to Think Pink!
I just came across this “Think Pink” page in the March issue of Harper’s Bazaar. Makes me crave the sight of Washington, D.C.,’s cherry blossoms, which are due to bloom at the end of this month. If you’re interested in pink jewelry options in addition to those on Bazaar’s page, take a look at a…
