    WOMEN’S FASHION: CHOCHENG

    March 20, 2019 - By 

    This season Chocheng presented their Fall/Winter 2019 collection which celebrates fine European tailoring and a chic 1950’s line that accentuates the feminine form. We had the opportunity to interview the designer Cho Cho Cheng and explore the inspiration behind the collection. What inspired your latest collection?  This collection is inspired by the 1959 film ‘North By Northwest’ and Joan Crawford.

    February 17, 2019 - By 

    Fashion evolved out of necessity. Sure, there’s something to be said about going au natural, but the reality is our environment can be quite harsh and we’ve had to create items of protection against the elements. We’ve come a long way since the day fig leaves were considered a viable option, and as our world got bigger so did our closets. Now there’s a shoe for every occasion. Fortunately for us our world is getting larger once more as we stand on the precipice of space exploration. Yes, the moon will soon be within reach for us mere mortals. No…

    JEWEL SPOTLIGHT: KUNZITE

    November 28, 2018 - By

Delicate pastel pink to intense violet-ish purple, Kunzite is loved for the special hues available making it possible for designers to create impressive designs. In fact the Smithsonian Institution has a prized faceted heart-shaped kunzite that weighs a stunning 880 carats. Due to its pleochroic characteristic, meaning that it flashes two different shades of visible color, it shows the best color when you look down the length of the crystal. The pegmatite deposits that the rough kunzite crystals are…
