The steamy sun-dressed, tanned and sandal wearin' days of summer are behind us (sigh). My favorite season bids us farewell again until next year, and it's time to look forward to my second favorite season...fall fashion season! I love the smell of the leather boots as they replace the flip-flops on the storeroom shelves, I adore the crispness of my new white button-ups, and enjoy the search for the perfect wool sweater. Fall means it's time for a new hairdo complete with low-lights, and a few new outfits to cover up that fading tan. Perhaps a new faux fur vest this year...well actually I'm still on the fence about that one. Inspired by fall itself this year, we have been busy making a collection rich in tones of crimson, auburn and pale green(which in gem talk translates to garnets, cognac quartz, and green amethyst). Of course, I have been using gold and two-tone as usual, but have fallen in love again with all things silver. Enjoy autumn everyone...and try not to think about what comes after it.
