Can you believe it’s mid-January? Above are photos which reflect what has been going on since the clock struck midnight on December 31st, 2010. Two Thousand Eleven sure has been a fun ride so far. Enjoy!

snapshot of my wrist at work–wearing a 1920s platinum and diamond watch that was involved in a murder of a gangster (true story!) It is for sale by the way. #Askaboutit
something about pairing pearls with leather, my absolute favorite. I’m wearing an 80″ strand of grey pearls and large white pearl studs.
Seven Deadly Sins. Been committing one of the seven a lot lately, can you guess which?

Designer discovery Satomi Kawakita. Wow.
Snapshot of my hand on my way to Sunday mass…how amazing is this 14k diamond ring circa 1970
Continuing my GIA studies with colored stones and trying to come up with a way to remember all these crystal structures and corresponding gemstone species.}

Loving the 1970s ring, I can't decide if it's more like a wishbone or a spire. I like the vintage Deco watch too but my eyesight is so bad I'd need a loupe to know what time it is!

Did you know colored Diamonds are called "fancies" and are rare and those with pronounced colors are worth more than the finest white varieties?

I really like this blog!, I am a jewelry collector and decided to start writing one when I realised that the web was full of sites trying to sell an inventory!
http://www.collectingfinejewels.blogspot.com
My blog is for curators of collections of fine jewellery and for anyone who enjoys finding unique and rare fine jewels; be it antique, estate, vintage jewellery or modern magnificent stones and designs. From a collector, investor or stylist point of view, these are the best pieces that I have found that are for sale in auctions and antique shops around the world. Ultimately it is for everyone who shares this passion.
I hope you like it at least a fraction of what I have enjoyed yours!

I have been taking splenda for several months. Just lately I realized that the moles on arms and especially legs had increased.By a sudden impulse while visiting my doctor for something else I showed the increased moles to him on one leg. He pointed out that two of the moles did not look good, he sent one small part of one of them to the lab and it came back as pre- cancerous. Both moles have been removed since. No more splenda for me. oorhgr oorhgr – Supra Footwear UK.

They are all SO pretty it would be SO hard to choose! I love the lavender, but I would probably choose white so
that I could wear them with EVERYTHING!
