Letters: Look For Less


‘Lakshmi’ wrote in to ask if we could help her find a more affordable option thats quite like the ‘Diorette Yellow Gold Ring’ and how she can wear it since its a ‘busy’ ring… so, here goes…

We love the Dior ring, its so whimsical and sort of crazy enough to totally work, but at $5,550.00 thats one heck of a price to pay! On the other hand, the Juicy Couture ‘Garden Party Ring’ is quite similar in principle and at $88.00 is far more affordable!

Since the ring itself is more of a statement piece, (or when wearing any such piece of jewelry) its important to keep the overall look clean, minimal, fuss-free and use of other accessories to a minimum.

Team it with a white summer dress for adding some chic summer punch! Either way, wear it with anything as long as colors are pastels and muted and stay away from prints. You don’t want too much going on!

And now, onto obsessing over that Diorette ring…

Be’jewelled


Amrapali has long been a favorite of mine for those unique jewellery pieces, that you know not everyone is going to be sporting or ones of which thankfully, cheap knockoffs won’t be readily available at Janpath! While their traditional jewellery is good, I especially look to them for their contemporary designs in Gold and Silver. Those pieces while having a modern edge still manage to retain their ethnic appeal and can be wonderfully teemed with clothes that are either western or traditional. A classic example of what I am talking about is this piece, a pendant and earrings set, in Gold and Onyx which I see being worn with a Sari, a Salwar, Jeans and a tank or even with a LBD with equal aplomb.

You know, everyone does a strand of pearls, but imagine how fabulous you’d be if you did this piece in South Sea Pearls…It looks like a traditional piece in Kundan but the twist comes in with the South Sea Pearls.

And I absolutely love the earrings in silver. Again, they have that versatility which enables them to ‘go’ well with any outfit, whether western or traditional. It is casual enough to be day to day, while still leaving room for them to be worked into your nights.

Cocktail rings are all the rage: bigger they are, the more kitschy they are, the better they are. So, now imagine, if you were sporting these rings in Silver, wouldn’t that make a statement? They are unique, and like with all things old, they are so new again! I see a woman who is sure of herself, one who walks into a room to own it, totally working this ring!

What a wonderful line of jewellery. For more, go HERE.

Spotlight: Argento Vivo


I am loving Argento Vivo’s simple designs.. They are not over the top and not too expensive either.

Here are some of the pieces from the Hammer collection..

This ring is so so cute. I am loving the thick band and disc.

Buy for $42.00

I couldn’t find a bigger picture of this choker but believe me it exudes style style style..

Buy for $285.00

These earrings are so cute and would go perfect with the ring above.

Buy for $32.00

As we all know, Cuffs are in this fall. Complete the look with this Straight-Edged Cuff. There are some more variations of cuffs on the website, but this is my favorite.

Buy for $200

For all of you who do not want to follow the rules, here is a cute bangle. This would go more with a bohemian style. Chunky cool!

Buy for $52.00

Now, just because I showed you one of each style does not mean that you should wear them all together. Instead, pick two out of the five and make a great ensemble. If you are daring enough, just wear the Choker with a great low neck dress.. I promise you, you will look Stunning!

P.S. All these items are on sale. Keep checking for further reduction.

"Lady" of the Rings


I love rings.. except I have small fingers. I envy women, who have lovely long fingers where any kind of a ring looks awesome. Believe me, if you ever just looked at my hand, you would think they belonged to a 10 year old! But all this does not stop me from surfing and eyeing all the available options online..
So today instead of browsing Bluefly for bags, I decided to do some ring searching and here are couple of my favorites. OK OK.. the list is really long..!

This one is from David Yurman. I love the alternating black and white. I am a real sucker for black and white! You could easily use this to stack in between two white gold rings or two silver rings and make a collection.
Buy the Diamond & Black Onyx Eternity Band for $1495 from David Yurman at Neiman Marcus

Another find is the Confetti Ring also from David Yurman. I love the multicolor look of the different gemstones. I am not sure if I am liking the rope effect of the actual ring. It seems to be a signature style of most of the David Yurman Rings.

Buy the Confetti Ring for $1650 from David Yurman at Neiman Marcus

This ring is really simple and what I love about it is that it is open ended on the top. Its a cute ring for someone young in their 20s.. Gives you that flirty feeling…

Buy the Paloma’s Tenderness Heart ring for $1495 from Tiffany online

I am a big fan of thick bands with gems. I love the soft color effect the blue sapphires have on the ring as a whole.

Buy the Tiffany Bubbles ring for $6500 from Tiffany online

Here is another version of the Tiffany Bubbles ring with all diamonds.

And this one..I am hoping if I have a secret admirer and that one day he will buy it for me!(Dream on Sista.. Dream on! says my alter ego)
