Twisted Silver Gurl Collection is classic and chic

Twisted Silver never ceases to amaze! The new “Gurl” Collection which debuted today offers three classic pieces which can be worn together, separately, or mixed together to create a classic, chic and unique look. Love that!

The new “Gurl” collection is made from golden brass and chalk-white beads. The entire collection not only gives off a vintage vibe, it includes a 1950’s clasp! 

The bracelet and necklace look fabulous when worn alone; but they can easily be connected to form one long necklace, or for use as a multiple strand bracelet. Fabulous!

The earrings are classic and can easily be worn on a daily basis. The white and yellow metal combination is neutral and warm; perfect for pairing with fall’s jewel toned apparel.

The bracelet can be worn alone or connected with the necklace and stacked with other bracelets for a fun arm-full of jewels!

Twisted Silver’s new “Gurl” Collection can be found online at Twisted-Silver.com. The necklace is priced at $50, the bracelet is $50 and the earrings are priced at $30. Use coupon code INSIDERS for a 15% discount.

Santana Row celebrates ten years

Has it really been ten years? Santana Row in San Jose is celebrating their tenth anniversary this year and it seems like only yesterday the fabulous shopping, dining and residential village opened its’ doors.
The tenth anniversary brings back memories of anticipation as Fashionistas throughout the San Francisco Bay Area waited to see how $450 million and 42-acres could bring together both residential and retail spaces to create a village within a city.

As the grand opening of Santana Row approached, everyone watched closely as an 11-alarm fire raged through the largest building on August 19, 2002. The fire destroyed 538,000 square feet of retail and residential space. The fire turned out to be the largest in the history of San Jose!

Santana Row is marking ten years and celebrating Silicon Valley’s economic resurgence by undergoing a $300 million expansion. This exciting expansion will include a central plaza, resort-style residential units and additional retail and office space. Oh, and never fear, this includes more parking! Love that!

The tenth anniversary celebration at Santana Row will take place from September 27 through September 30 2012. The official anniversary is November 7, 2012.

The Snapshot collection from Twisted Silver is an instant signature look

There is one thing every Fashionista needs in her jewelry wardrobe, and that is a signature piece. The runways offer seasonal jewelry looks and the streets dictate which trends are hot, and which are not. This can leave a lot of noise in our heads as we search for investment pieces, or jewelry that is both comfortable and reflects our own individual style.

For fall 2012, Twisted Silver has crossed over the bold, funky and statement making line into the signature jewelry arena; and they have hit a bull’s-eye! The new Snapshot collection from Twisted Silver offers a dainty pair of earrings and sweet charm necklace which features miniature cameos. Although cameos happen to be on trend for fall 2012, they really are considered classic and investment worthy.

Charm necklaces are also considered classic and generally reflect one’s own personal style. The Snapshot necklace from Twisted Silver offers three sparkling silver charms which evoke a vintage feel that is feminine and understated. Two of the charms are of cameos and the third is Twisted Silver’s signature coin. Together, the three charms tell the world you are feminine, strong, independent, classic, grounded and slightly edgy  Love that!

It is difficult to wear multiple cameos together, but Twisted Silver’s Snapshot earrings are so petite and understated, that they can easily be worn with the charm necklace without the cameos competing with each other.

The Snapshot necklace and earrings can easily be worn everyday with casual attire, office wear, ladies luncheon ensembles and even semi-formal dresses and cocktail dresses. This versatility makes the Snapshot Collection from Twisted Silver the perfect investment for fall 2012, and for a lifetime.

Twisted Silver launched the Snapshot Collection online today. The earrings are priced at $30 and the necklace is priced at $40. Twisted Silver can be found online at Twisted-Silver.com. Use coupon code INSIDERS for a 15% discount. Fabulous!
