Ringing in the ears
We found several treasures often overlooked in the jewelry cabinet in Soho. Gazing into the cabinet is a frequent past time, as is rotating the jewels for effect and rearranging the miniature displays. Mesmerizing, the stones find their natural setting on a hand: a double pronged Alexis Bittar ring with a mirrored ball and black pearl, a clear plastic two-fingered ring, a ring that looks like a fractured rock, a gunmetal ring with two rams atop a pagoda, and a rhinestone encrusted jewel with an overhang onto the next finger.






Below the Mason-Dixon
I love the rules of a Southern Belle in the summer. Pair a ladylike straw Lanvin hat with a little black Phi dress, or an Alexander McQueen scarf around the hair. Violet lace gloves as a dainty approach to a sheer dress. Bright pink in the form of a crocodile bag and floral vintage bathing cap.
