Trends & Colours Can Help But Love Gem Ceramic

  
Trends and Colours magazine is a widely circulated and respected jewelry magazine and seasonal trend look-book. Thousands of well know retailers consider what's within its pages before deciding what "must have" collections to pick for the season. That's exactly why we are pleased to see that they featured Etienne's Gem Ceramic designs in both the "black" and "white" sections!

We could hardly have asked for more than to have two of Etienne's new Gem Ceramic and colored diamond designs featured in the latest spring issue. But there's no denying that this sweet new collection can rock both black and white ends of the color spectrum--not to mention most every color in between!
 

$1.27 Million Diamond Jeans

Recession? What recession? Rumors abound that the economy is heading down, down, down and consumer confidence is danger of flat-lining. Obviously the analysts and the doomsday sayers have not been thorough in their research. I mean, if people are buying jeans for over $1.2 million, things can’t be that bad – can they?

During London Fashion Week, Secret Circus Clothing Company unveiled a $1.27 million pair of jeans and, by the close of the last show, announced the first pair of diamond-encrusted jeans had been sold.

The jeans are hand-made (obviously) and the back-pocket is embellished with 15 diamonds that include some rather large rocks: a 4.63 marquise diamond, 2 round brilliant six-carater diamonds, one 5.09 carat princess cut gem and a pear-cut diamond weighing in at 5.37 carats. Not forgetting of course 10 single carat diamonds.

Irma Matulionyte modeled them at the label’s launch at London Fashion Week in February, and since then, the brand has stirred up quite a buzz. The owner of the million-buck denims didn’t want to be named, but the company did state the jeans will fit a 27 inch waist. Practicality is, of course, another important consideration when buying jeans with diamonds. Before shoving them in the wash, let’s hope the laundry remembers to use the clasp that will remove the diamonds.
