We Love Lagerfeld!

Karl Lagerfeld is a household name in fashion. A young prodigy, he started designing clothing with Pierre Balmain at just 17 years of age. Throughout his career he has worked for Krizia, Charles Jourdan, Valentino, Fendi and Chanel. With his own line of couture, Lagerfeld brings a new, bold feminity to whatever he does, and classifies his style as "intelligent chic".

Here we have our recent collection of vintage Lagerfeld, living up to his Vogue crowning as the “unparalleled interpreter of the mood of the moment”.

Celluloid Bangles

Rhinestone-covered deco celluloid bangles are a beautiful and elegant addition to any look. From black tie to the backyard it seems these pieces are the perfect showstopper in vintage. Created in the 1930s, they are very hard to find and some of the designs are breath-taking. They have a certain integrity that is very special and unique to them. I've shown one of my dear friends wearing her grouping, and she is in love! Mix and match to show off your own tastes and personality.

If you're interested in a grouping, please contact us, as the rarity and different designs dictate the pricing.

Diamantes are a Girl's Best Friend

All the buzz is on what SJP was wearing for Tokyo's Sex and The City 2 Premiere! As we found out, the true metropolitan fashionista herself chose one of our necklaces to accent her Vivienne Westwood dress. True to form, she casually layered a Fred Leighton gold necklace and a Stephen Russell heart necklace on top of it.

Get this look for yourself with our new clear rhinestone bib necklaces here.

The Secret....

... Is casual, creative placement! We love how SJP can layer so many treasures together and make them look informally beautiful. This image is from the Japanese premiere of Sex and The City 2, where our It Girl wore a diamante bib necklace of ours, which was of course layered with multiple other items. What a fashion inspiration!
