It seems as though the opening of One World Trade
has set the motion of everything fashion moving downtown. From Condé Nast to
New York Fashion Week and even yours truly (+ Chicken) are switching things up
in new downtown locations. Right on trend, Rêve PR represents fantastic jewelry
brands worn by some of the hottest celebs like Rihanna, Taylor Swift, Jennifer
Lawrence and Janelle Monae. For us not so famous people, accessories have the
amazing ability to transform the look of an outfit that you wear all the time into
something new. All the pieces at the Fall/Winter 2015 Preview were full of
ultimate glam jewelry that every girl would enjoy!
During this amazing visit at Rêve, I got a chance to check out four exquisite
brands: Casa Reale, Lele Saudoughi, Laurel DeWitt
and A PEACE
TREATY. I perused each collection with one of my NYC besties as he
tried to deny that he created the 90s and early 2000s Spotify playlist that was
setting the tone of the afternoon and prompting me to dance.
~ Casa Reale ~
First stop on the glam express, Casa Reale! Truly beautiful earrings and rings, especially if you are looking for fun cuffs and pieces perfect for stacking. It was hard to capture all the subtle details that make this brand so great. If you take a look through my images you'll see how Casa Reale has pieces for everyday and for special occasions; personally I'm loving the gold rings below and the tear drop shaped purple, gold and cream earrings!
~ Lele Sadoughi ~
Next glam stop is Lele Sadoughi, her jewelry has graced the pages of Vogue, ELLE, Harper's BAZAAR, WSJ Magazine, The New York Times, and countless other esteemed print and online publications. Her designs have been worn by Jessica Alba, Olivia Palermo, Nicole Kidman, Naomi Campbell, and Jennifer Hudson. More importantly I want a piece of her collection to call my own. The style of the pieces are extraordinary, conceptual and brilliant!
The Lele Sadoughi collection is an inspirational brand drawing reference from bold architecture, post-industrial machinery, and an expansive color palette experienced by a life of travel and love for modern art. Recognized for her feminine aesthetic with geometric and mechanical influences, Lisa “Lele” Sadoughi uses her signature array of marble, sandstone, hematite, and milky glass stones in unique complimentary hues often set in modern, functional, and brass-riveted settings.

Next glam brand is Laurel Dewitt, the collection is more than jewelry, accessories or clothes it was art! I was beyond impressed with the intricate details and sculpture of the designs. I've never seen anything like it and couldn't stop staring, allowing me to notice even more and more to love.
Laurel DeWitt’s hand-crocheted metal apparel continues to rail against our classical conceptions of ‘clothing’ with new silhouettes and pioneering techniques more complex than ever before. Clean lines showcase the diametric results of DeWitt’s complicated process, illustrating the designer’s unparalleled mastery over the vast behaviors of metal. The line has been worn by actresses Vanessa Hudgens and Milla Jovovich, reality star Khloe Kardashian, Grammy award winners Cyndi Lauper, Lady Gaga, Kelly Rowland, Lil Kim, Brandy, Will.i.am, Eve, Melanie Fiona, and superstar Nicki Minaj.
~ A PEACE TREATY ~
Last but not least, A PEACE TREATY, it was beautiful, simple and a bit tribal. Not to mention a great ending to this incredible preview. The collection is named MASAR, clean and modern in form: glamorous 24-karat high-polish gold-plating is set with Blue Tiger’s Eye, sometimes cut into spherical shapes. Although all of the handmade pieces glimmer irresistibly, the collection speaks more to the cultural decadence of the enchanting woman who wears them.
MASAR, evoking the ultimate winter landscape, includes capes, scarves, wraps and jewelry all evocative of the cozy and chic aesthetic of mid-century cabin culture. The capes and scarves’ saturated, primary tones reflect a modern sensibility, while buffalo check patterns and leather fringe details recall the warmth and familiarity of a favorite hand-me-down.

Being a Style Hunter for People Style Watch has its perks and this time it was attending a special collaboration event with JustFab here in NYC at Toro. Mixing and mingling with other shoe lovers over cocktails and tasty bites to eat while getting a sneak peek at the exclusive collection! There were so many cute pairs of shoes scattered around the lounge, up the walls, in the bar decor and even a tree (not kidding)!

Gallow Green was the perfect setting of whimsy and garden fantasy for Gigi Burris' new Spring/Summer 2015 "Millinery" Collection. If you haven't been to Gallow Green its a must see, it feels like you've been transported out of New York and back in time. As you can see there were plenty of styles for hat lovers and a few hair accessories for those that are less bold (like myself). The collection was stunning and left me making plans for the next Kentucky Derby hat that I will need next year.
More about the collection:
For the SS15 season Burris was drawn to the shade of blue, as seen in Yves Klein’s Anthropometries. Inspiration was also found in the linear movement seen in Robert Mapplethorpe's floral photography and sea urchins. Both hold a sense of tension and delicate texture that the milliner references in the SS15 collection. A palette of black, natural straw, blue and white is met with the elements of sewn shiny Racello Braids, Swiss Star bright straw, ostrich poofs and peacock flue. The SS15 Gigi Burris Millinery collection has a sense of easy elegance and irreverence to it; an emotional reference sourced from 1950's beach photographs and illustrated by the milliner through her whimsical couture feather work fascinators, and wide brimmed straw hats.
Kipling has a new colorful and organize-tastic collection for all your school supply needs! In case you are not familiar, Kipling is an international handbag, travel and accessories brand.

Its always a pleasure to stop by the GLITTERRINGS showroom! Its a jewelry heaven with every style and color you can think of. I found myself being drawn to the gold, silver & dark metal pieces. I saw so many items that would make perfect gifts...or gifts to myself (what, everyone should spoil themselves from time to time)!
First stop....the ARIELLA collection. I loved the rings, especially the stackable ones! Prices start at $22 - $88, making each piece as affordable as beautiful. Here are some of my favorites from the ARIELLA Collection. All are available at Nordstrom in-store or online.
Next Stop…MICHELA CLASSICS. Yet another collection of beautiful rings! You can find these in Lord and Taylor in-store or online. Prices range from $24 - $42...not bad, at all!
Below are my favs! Love the canary color and the flower! The circular cut of the first ring can easily go with everything.
I'm all about layering right now. I like the idea of simple yet creative pieces put together as a statement piece. Walking the GLITTERRINGS section of there showroom, I found the below necklaces (sets $20-$25), stackable rings (5 for $25) and bangles absolutely adorable!
