Behind the Baubles | Tiffany Kunz
[spacer]
[spacer]
[dropcap custom_class=”normal”]W[/dropcap]ith just one look through Tiffany Kunz’s website, you’ll understand why her work is my latest jewelry obsession. Her elegant pieces have an eclectic tribal-meets-vintage vibe that still manages to be elegant. (Really, is anything better than this necklace or this ring?) Beyond her unique aesthetic, however, there are two even more compelling reasons to check out her work: a commitment to sustainability and a commitment to empowering impoverished women worldwide. Read more about both initiatives here.
As you’ll see, the “Beyond the Baubles” feature has taken on a new look, but the same lighthearted “get to know the designer” tidbits are there. Enjoy! (Let me know if there’s anything you’d like added to the Q&A!)

[blockquote]The proudest moment of my career was executing a challenging engagement ring and having the client love it! I opened a bottle of champagne that day and it is partly how I began my path in metalsmithing. When multiple jewelers turned down the design saying it was too much work, I was intrigued to have a go at it myself. [/blockquote]
[blockquote]My ideal Saturday starts with reading a book with coffee, my husband and our pup by my side and ends with a cocktail and laughs with good friends.[/blockquote]

Shopping Guide | Black Ankle Boots
[dropcap custom_class=”normal”]F[/dropcap]inding the perfect pair of black ankle boots for fall is taking a ridiculously long time and my wish list isn’t even that lofty. I just want a black pair with a substantial heel for navigating slippery sidewalks that doesn’t look dowdy. I’d also like to stay away from suede so I don’t have to contend with as many salt stains. And, I hate silver hardware with black leather. It looks a little too biker babe for me. I spent the morning scrolling through hundreds of options to come up with nine that meet my expectations.
Pictured top to bottom, left to right.
Under $100: Express, $70 | H&M, $50 | ASOS, $57
Under $250: Elliott Lucca, $179 | Topshop, $150 | Michael by Michael Kors, $245

Bauble of the Week
[dropcap custom_class=”normal”]D[/dropcap]ainty jewelry is having a moment and as much as I love wearing big baubles, nothing is easier–or more feminine–than opting for a demure piece. I love the rose gold cascades of Gorjana’s double drop earrings and at just $48, it’s an affordable way to experiment with the trendy metal.

Normally I’m not a fan of Victoria’s Secret’s pajama designs, but this cami and short set is surprisingly sophisticated with muted colors and thoughtful color blocking. I ordered it this morning in shell pink because cool weather pretty much demands a new set of PJs to curl up in.
I’m also obsessing over the Cole Haan “Vestry” clutch pictured above. Not only is it beautiful, it’s affordable (just $148) and practical with plenty of pockets and a removable mini pouch. I just can’t decide between navy or grey. There’s also a fuchsia version here. If you’ve got your eye on the clutch–or any other items at Cole Haan–buy ’em this weekend. There’s a customer appreciation event that will save you $50 on a purchase of $150 or more through Sept. 22.
