Fashiona on Loving Diamonds

Breakfast at Tiffany’s is one of Fashiona’s favorite movies because it really is a visual treat from start to finish. However there is one scene in that iconic movie that Fashiona doesn’t agree with:

Holly(Audrey Hepburn) and Paul (George Peppard) were in Tiffany’s and Holly says that she was too young for diamonds and “they look vulgar on someone under 40.”

Since Fashiona has been “collecting” diamonds since birth…this sentiment is sacrilegious.

N
ow diamond loving Fashiona usually attends weddings in shifts, last year she attended two. 2006 was a banner year…she attended so many weddings and anniversary parties she lost count…the baby shower invites should be rolling in shortly. June is still a very popular month to get married and is usually when Fashiona starts thinking about weddings and marriage again. Whether she is dating anyone…or not she designs engagement rings every year… after all a girl must be prepared.

These days Fashio
na is loving vintage settings and has been leaning toward to princess and asscher cuts.

Just look a
t the bauble she designed at Abazias!!!


Isn’t she pretty?



Uhh…no unfortunately Abazias does not a have fiancé builder. But since high maintenance girls just can’t live by diamond rings alone… Abazias has accessories, earrings, bracelets, necklaces and watches.

oooh, pretty!!!!

I was watching the local news last night and they were talking about affordable weddings in this economy. One of their tips was to have a ring made on Jeweler's Row. You can save $9000 that way! Holy crap! Who knew?!?!?

You're right, we need to find a fiance builder! They should put it next to Jeweler's Row!

By nature I am not a jewelry person however I tend to agree diamonds are lovely on women of all ages. The ring you designed is quite lovely, I must make my way to the site to design mine. Odd I was never one of those plan your wedding type of girls but recently I've been having that itch...I'm calling it age.

Love the ring!! All sparkly and stuff ;-) As you say, diamonds are for any age and as the saying goes...they are forever :)

I especially love the interior ring guard. I designed my latest engagement ring and lately I've been contemplating a redesign and rebuild. I've got a few loose stones laying around that I think I want to start wearing. I wish I could wear my nicer pieces more often. but alas,,, I'm in the D. so I keep my stuff simple.
