This year’s trip to the Vicenza Jewelry Fair with my associate buyer, Danielle Smith, and Lisa Robertson did not disappoint!  There were so many great trends and so many new ideas that you will see on our Vicenza Style 25-hour event day on June 15th.

The best way to describe the show was the fair of “WOWs”!  There are so many amazing Fresh from the Fair pieces to choose from, and we had to limit ourselves to the best of the best.  That is always a good sign of our success. J  I have done the Vicenza fair so many times, I know it in my sleep, but I still get nervous before each show because I never know what I will find.  I never want to disappoint the customer, and when this one was over, I believed that the selection of “Fresh from the Fair” items we found was one of the best assortments ever.

From ideas in turquoise like the below…

…to ideas in bold GILI spinel cuffs there is something for everyone!

No one is more ingenious then the Italians, and their creative ideas and design innovations are arguably the best in the world.  The Colors of metal trend was everywhere including, yellow, white, rose, chocolate and the all-important black, which continues to be a must have in the assortment.

Every aspect of the jewelry in some way is still focusing on the wrist.  The Italians love layering jewelry on their wrist to create their own individual styling! Whenever I see their creativity of how the Italian women wear multiple bracelets, I always get new ideas for how OUR customers can wear their bracelets.  One particular bracelet I feel is a great layering piece is below.

I hope you will join me for the 16^th annual 25-hour Vicenza Event. 

It is sure to be a dazzling day of Italian jewelry.  I will be presenting with the hosts all day some of my favorite items we found in Italy as well as some all-time favorites. I hope you find the product as exciting as Danielle, Lisa and I did.
