When you are gifted truffles from Fortnum & Mason, an upscale 18th century department store
in London - you savor every bite and the box it came in!

My friend just flew back from London and surprised chocolate loving me with these goodies.
When I saw how beautiful the box and packaging were I decided I needed to dress for the
occasion:) 

So I opted for simple classic bracelets in gold and silver. I think they look just as luxurious 
as the truffle box. 

Naturally I had to adorn my finger with a silver wrap ring to hold this delicacy!

I was gifted a variety of truffles and will be slowly working my way throught them.
If you need some pretty jewelry to wear with dinner or dessert you can shop my bracelets here.

The wrap ring is not yet available...but if you want to be the first to know when it is then

Mixed metal jewelry has been part of my aesthetic since I very first started designing. I love the look!
With a background in Interior design I'm no stranger to using basic design principles. 

And Balance is one of those principles!

Sterling is a "cool" tone and gold is a "warm" tone. Balancing those 2 is easy.
Choose your dominant metal and accent with the opposite!
It's no differnt than other cool/warm tone mixes. 

If you prefer to wear all 1 metal color then by all means go ahead.
But don't be afraid to step out of your comfort zone and mix your metals if the mood strikes.

Jewelry designs shown here are pieces that are either gold dominant or silver dominate.
You can now enjoy not being so matchy-matchy. Which gives the opportunnity to wear more jewelry!

If you want to see more of my mixed metal pieces you can shop necklaces, earrings, or bracelets/cuffs.
