Thawing, finally!

It looks from your side of the screen like I’ve been slacking.  Don’t let the smooth taste fool yah. LOL.  Design of another sort has been a great creative outlet of late, absorbing more time than anticipated, but the jewelry marches on.  I’m still playing w/new techniques, still texturing metals.  SUPER FUN.  So my new fav… granulation.  Frustrating at moments but challenging and rewarding all at once.  There isn’t much to show b/c most of the pieces are for demo, just perfecting the techniques.  I’m still working in copper until the designs and methods are fully articulated, then we’ll move back to silver.  I do enjoy working in copper though, the patinas just can’t be beat.  I’ll snap a few pics soon.

So much has happened… one of my fav couples tied the knot.  Snaps for the kids!!!

Just general fabulousness to share.  Two of my fav super talents, Estelle & Christian Siriano.  Estelle is wearing a most stunning chunky necklace, which is unfortunately hidden in this photo.

Spring has arrived, so a few spring fashion highlights…

I *heart* Tory Birch, probably my fav socialite/business woman of the moment.  Loving the sandals in the collection too.

from the Spring/Summer line

And the bracelet lover in me couldn’t resist posting this tasty morsel.  Gucci Bamboo.

Nanette Lapore… consistent as always.  Contemporary, feminine and comfortable.  Homerun.

Feeding the Diva, Rachel Roy.

I love this dress… Brushstroke Print, Rachel Roy.

Alright Lovelies, next time all Ansley.  Promise.
