Is it just me or have Judith Ripka's prives gone up? The TSV today is beautiful but there is NO WAY I would pay that much for it! Nearly $400.00 for a costume bracelt is expecting a lot. Costume jewelry you say? Yes, costume jewelry. I know silver is a precious metal but Diamonique are man-made diamonds...in other words...zirconia!!

I have several pieces of Judith Ripka and it is beautiful and very well made. I find that all her pieces look alike and her designs don't change dramatically...which makes them easy to wear together....but I would like more originality and not just a play on an item she has sold for years. I think her prices reflect the couture line she is famous for in New York. And honestly, if I was going to pay close to $400.00 for a bracelet, I would buy REAL GOLD from Eterna Gold (which I have several bangles).

Jus' sayin....
