Jewelry Love Affair: Alexis Bittar

The Alexis Bittar Spring 2011 collection was inspired by the 1970s with his personal touch on a retro futuristic vibe. Each bold piece makes for a glamorous addition and I completely agreed when he told me, "..it is our job to excite the women in Seattle about fashion."

A Simple Piece Can Go A Long Way

SOLD OUT

A clean cut, texture in the metalwork, and a subtle expression when paired with your long sweaters, neutral attire, and favorite sleek boots. This modern piece shows feminity in the delicacate chain and an edgy yet strong statement in the art of the larger metal work.

Where to invest

$475 @ Nordstrom

I would say, if you wanted to really invest in a statement piece to strut at galas, silent auctions, and festive parties this would be the piece. You will not go wrong with a neutral stone, it will compliment a variety of colors.

Versatile and Glamorous

$345 @ Nordstrom

What I love about Lucite is that it's matte lustre makes a great jewelry piece. This necklace is short enough to be worn with jackets, glamorous enough to accent dresses, and beautiful enough to treasure forever.

Sparkle and Shine

$455 @ Nordstrom

As you know, sparkle and sequins are totally day time acceptable. Don't shy away from a little eye popping glitter look in your next jewelry purchase. I promise your jeans and flats will feel all dressed up for your evening outings.

Chunky Love

$245 @ Nordstrom

Chunky rings are not only fun, they really POP. Just make sure you don't accidentally lose it when taking it off to wash your hands.  It happens......

A new kind of royalty

$225 @ Nordstrom

For those that wear higher necklines, a necklace with weight and length can recreate your looks. An asymmetrical cut added to a  precious stone gives a nice twist to a classic look.
