Get The Look: Red Carpet Jewelry

This awards season, we saw a ton of diamond statement pieces. Gorgeous diamond collar necklaces paired with strapless gowns was the look of the SAG Awards and the Golden Globes—Jessica Chastain, Marion Cotillard, and Jennifer Lawrence all looked absolutely divine in their jewels. Add a touch of tasteful sparkle to your everyday look with a Kismet bar necklace and Anton Heunis’ ZigZag necklace. Or go for full red carpet glam with Jordan Alexander’s Diamond Rondelle Necklace or Lena Skadegard’s Herkimer Strand.

Studs were also a big trend this awards season—everyone from Nicole Richie to Anne Hathaway to Elisabeth Moss sported beautiful studs. I love studs because they’re a fun way to show a bit of your personality every day. These pairs by Suzanne Kalan and Fragments are the perfect size for day, and if you want to make more of a statement you can’t go wrong with Colette’s heart studs or Kismet’s fun ruby lips!

Broadway Review: Come Fly Away

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. Mine was lovely and I want to tell you all about a sensational experience I had at the Marquis theater on Saturday night.

My husband and I went to see “Come Fly Away” – Tony winner Twyla Tharp’s new musical. The choreography was absolutely sensational and the music was beyond words. But of course – how could it not be – it featured Frank Sinatra vocals. It is amazing how music and dance can combine so effectively to develop characters, various personalities and significant story lines. What a brilliant idea to marry such sexy dance with this style music – absolutely dynamic!

This show is a must-see. A real New York City experience. A night to remember. It is theater like this that makes NYC “our kind of town.”

For more information, photos, videos and of course – to purchase tickets, visit this link:
Come Fly Away

Many people ask me what kind of jewelry to wear for certain ocassions. Many times, they inquire about what to wear to theater. I feel that theater is a perfect opportunity to let your jewels do the talking. Keep your clothing simple (stylish, of course) – but nothing to over the top, so that your jewelry can really stand out. I think special statement earrings are perfect – and even a fabulous necklace. Check out Deanna Hamro jewelry at Fragments for more inspiration…

What are your favorite shows and musicals? What do you wear to theater? I would love to hear your thoughts and answer your questions!

Janet
