Jill Platner

When two years ago I was in New York, I had a chance to visit Jill Platner store on 113 Crosby Street in SoHO. However, I didn’t really get interested in it, but thanks god, I took one of their beautiful postcards… and guess what, I found it today during the summer cleaning! I checked their site, their store and I am so fascinated in it right now! For over 20 years, Jill Platner has created jewelry and sculpture from different metals like gold or silver. In 1998 she opened a shop on SoHo’s Crosby Street. The space has not only served as a retail outlet for her jewelry, but a gallery for her sculpture as well. At the center of Jill’s work is a fluid sense of movement, inspired by both organic and urban forms like feathers or tree branches. Jewelry designs are conceived with an innate sense of how they will look and feel on the body. Hinged pieces drape like fabric, and hammered metals beg to be picked up and felt. Every piece has a unique physical presence and tactile quality. A simple elegance underscores everything Jill does. And the monumental sculptures which hang from the ceilings remind me of over-sized fish bone sculptures or something alike… in other words, while being in New York the next time, you must check out this beautiful store and Platner’s style!

Celine’s AW14 Jewellery

winter_2014_accessories_1

Phoebe Philo’s Celine jewellery line rules. One ear earring that looks like a mini chandelier; then the crystal over-sized bracelets in olive, khaki, purple and blue are so damn good. Maybe these pieces aren’t the most minimalistic and casual, but surely one of these bracelets will steal he spotlight of the whole evening outfit.

A recent jewellery crush? These multi-coloured Celine necklaces for Pre-Fall’14. They own that ethno feeling… The necklaces have marble, plastic and metal in their “panels” and look really good with everything black! That lands our 1st of May wishlist.

Big Girls Need Big Diamonds.

Slide1-kopia 5

And this quote by Elizabeth Taylor defines best Celine’s AW14 jewellery- it’s big, shiny and it’s everywhere. Worn on sweaters, with dresses and as one-ear-earring, Phoebe Philo got splendour this season, if talking about the bling-bling. In reality, the designers go big this time with all those necklaces-  Altuzarra had a huge metallic compositions tied around the necks; Givenchy gave coral branches; and Louis Vuitton (just like Celine) was all about the one-ear-earring, with a huge LV logo. And while it’s the International Women Day- the bigger bling, the bigger wow!Slide2 Slide3

White Noise by Repossi

zdjęcie 2-kopia

Gaia Repossi, the creative director of Place Vendome’s jewellery house, Repossi, creates simple, but beautiful collections. The recent one, called White Noise, is full of lazy gold curves, delicate silver polishes and beautiful purple rhodium that was introduced last year. With the classical “berbere” ring re-edition (once it was more straight!) the collection seems to look luxurious even without a huge amount of gems- although there were lots of diamonds, as usually. But still, Repossi’s magic is kept in the simplicity and detail… and White Noise is definitely my one of the “curvier” beauties created by Gaia.
