Behind the Baubles: Labulgara

Behind the Baubles: Labulgara

Nadia Todorova of Labulgara Jewelry Collection created her NYC-based brand in 2016. Her work takes an irreverent approach to fine jewelry, crafting precious metals and stones into edgy designs. The signature piece of her collection is the needle earring. Resembling a sword, the earring cuffs around the top of the ear and plunges downward through a piercing.

Behind the Baubles: Candy Shop Vintage

Behind the Baubles: Deirdre Zahl of Candy Shop Vintage

Sometimes you come across a brand that just makes you happy. For me, that brand is unquestionably Candy Shop Vintage with its charming designs like a French 75 charm bracelet and a champagne pendant and an equally charming designer at the helm. Candy Shop Vintage was founded in 2009 by designer Deirdre Zahl. Her experience in fashion and design in New York led to a passion for vintage jewelry. Pieces from her collection have been featured in national magazines, popular blogs, and even on the hit TV show “Mad Men.” After years of collecting and selling vintage jewelry, Deirdre designed and launched The Candy Shop Collection, her own jewelry line that was inspired by vintage designs and reflected the quality and craftsmanship of those pieces. One of her brand’s flagship lines is the Charleston Rice Bead collection, which pays homage to the port city’s history and the importance rice played as a commodity in South Carolina.

Behind the Baubles: Jenny Bird

Behind the Baubles: Jenny Bird :: Bedknobs & Baubles

Canada-based designer Jenny Bird is one of my favorite jewelers right now. Her sleek, modern aesthetic seamlessly mixes gold and silver to create eye-catching statement pieces. And if you’re not already familiar with the brand, you’ll be shocked by how affordable her pieces are. Take this necklace for example. That kind of attention to detail and quality in such a large piece is unheard of at $145 at most retailers. Jenny sums it up best:

I founded my line as an extension of myself; rooted in an innate desire to build something. I am a self-taught designer, and, as it turns out, it’s the most intuitive, effortless process that I have ever known. I am committed to a personal philosophy: the market does not need more soulless, short-lived fashion jewelry, nor does it need over-priced plated pieces. Each piece I design is deeply inspired and well thought-out;  produced in the highest quality, and sold at a fair price.

Not only does her approach to creating beautiful, accessible pieces earn my respect, it earns my total fangirl approach to her brand. My collection includes these major statement earrings, this pair that has incredible movement, and this minimal choker. Up next? I’ve got my eye on this pair of oversize studs in oxidized brass. Don’t they just look like the perfect accent piece for summer’s bohemian-inspired dresses?

Behind the Baubles: Ben-Amun

BenAmun-1v3

When it comes to America’s most iconic jewelry designers, it’s impossible to overlook Isaac Manevitz’s illustrious career creating the Ben-Amun collection in New York for over 30 years. In the early ’80s, Isaac pioneered the statement jewelry movement, kicking off a robust career that would land his work in top fashion publications, on runways, and on prominent A-listers, including Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. These crowning achievements are perhaps no surprise given the Cairo native’s family history in jewelry design. He’s the son of the jeweler to the Egyptian royal court. Isaac draws on his heritage for inspiration, along with his passion for travel and history to create stunning works of wearable art.

Over the weekend, we drove to Michigan and welcome Over the weekend, we drove to Michigan and welcomed this little lady to the family! She’s a two-year old snow Bengal that was surrendered after being bullied by the other cats in her home. We’re pretty sure she’s a seal lynx point Bengal, which has Siamese in the lineage, based on her vibrant, slightly crossed blue eyes. She is the sweetest, softest, most playful, and unbelievably talkative little girl. We’re crazy about her! 

We haven’t picked a name just yet, though. We have some ideas, but we’re waiting to get to know her personality more. 😊

Merry Christmas! My own Christmas tree isn’t a Merry Christmas! 

My own Christmas tree isn’t as tinsel’d as this one from the Christmas museum in Salzburg nor does it rotate. Consider these goals for next year.

I made @csaffitz’s raspberry almond thumbprint c I made @csaffitz’s raspberry almond thumbprint cookies and they’re delicious, but a lot of work and they don’t hold up well. If you’re planning on them this year, don’t add the jam dollop until just before you’re ready to serve them. The moisture gets sucked in overnight. Still good, of course, just softer than the first day.
