As a lifelong feminist, it pains me to admit it, but there is one thing that men are often* better at than women … SHOPPING. Surprise! But it’s true. And I’m not talking about how men are hunters and women are gatherers when it comes to trips to the mall. I’m more interested in the…

If I Were Marie Antoinette …
… I’d wear this beautiful Dolce & Gabbana gown on casual Fridays at Versailles. Joan Rivers has a good line about the French queen that she uses when showing off her own apartment: “Marie Antoinette would have lived here … if she had money.”

Happy Thanksgiving, I Guess
I’ve said it before, but I’ll say it again: I don’t like Thanksgiving. The holidays I enjoy include gifts, fireworks and/or costumes. Turkey, overeating and football are not on my list. Also, I don’t need a single Thursday in November dedicated to gratitude when I feel deeply thankful on a daily basis, resulting in my…
An Egyptian Jewelry Treat for Halloween
I blogged about an adorable sarcophagus-and-mummy locket I made several years ago, but I never put the necklace on my e-commerce website. I meant to do so, but the one-of-a-kind necklace turned out to be too popular with editors and stylists for me to part with it. Now, with Halloween approaching, I figured I’d give…

Shontelle Shows Two Clemence Rings Are Even Better Than One
Quite a few people have stacked two of my Clemence rings together, but I’ve never managed to get a picture. Gorgeous singer Shontelle (“Impossible“) ended my photo drought last Wednesday when she performed and modeled at the “Real Fashion, Real Women” show benefiting Bottomless Closet. She wore my 18K-gold Clemence ring in rock crystal and…
