WWD at last!
The biggest and best news is that Objets d'Envy was featured in an article in Women's Wear Daily. I've been in business for 3 years and this
was my
dream recognition. Thanks to Macy's, Beth Wilson, Lisa Bertagnoli and Karen Hoyt for a great profile! WWD
ELEMENTary, my dear!
This fall, I debuted a brand new collection: Element. Metallic neutrals and natural elements are merged in this new collection. Inspired by a rich
palette of slate, amber, charcoal, bronze and caramel, the pieces offer a shimmery new twist on neutrals, giving them a brilliance that only
Swarovski can deliver. Dramatic oversized stones and dainty mini crystals are combined with rich bone, textured chains, luxe tassels and faceted
elements. The look is an unusual intermix of modern layering, updated disco glam, and organic style. With evocative crystals, organic elements and
sensual chains, this collection begs to be felt, not just worn. See them on the website now, buy them at Macy's and look for more pieces coming
soon! Buy them online here: New! See them here: The Element
Collection

New Look
A new logo and color theme. What girl doesn't love pink? I do!
It's the perfect color to stand out. And it looks great with the new
logo...a
fleur de sparkle icon!

Macy's Debut
The next biggest news is that Macy's chose me as one of their "Designers of Chicago" to be featured at their
flagship
store on State Street. Over 70 designers were reviewed. Nineteen were selected. There are only 3 newcomers and Objets d'Envy is one of them! It's a
thrill to be part of this retail opportunity. And I'm so excited that stylish
women in Chicago are able to shop for my jewelry at Macy's on State
Street!
Pieces from
the new Element Collection and the Rock Candy Collection are available in the jewelry department on the first floor by the "up" escalator. Please
stop by and look for the bright pink Objets tags. Read more: MacysPR
Celeb style
Objets d'Envy participated in the Jackson Hole Film Festival this summer. Actresses Thora Birch (American Beauty) and Jorja Fox
(CSI) loved Objets
pieces...such
glamorous models! And keep your
eyes open for more Gayle King sightings...she wore her bracelet to this year's White House Correspondents Dinner. Also Stacy London is still a fan,
wearing several pieces on this season's What Not to Wear on TLC.
Martha love
Martha Stewart hosted the tree lighting at Macy's. I was happy to be able to give her a little Objets sparkle.
My fingers
are crossed that she might wear the Bordeaux bracelet and Mini Cluster earrings. Send good thoughts Martha's way!
