The Bar is Now Open!

Amid ongoing reports of lagging sales, J.C. Penney continues to "up the ante" in hopes of courting new customers while retaining the loyalty of those who have shopped their stores for many years. One of the latest, is the addition of the "Bijoux Bar" in it's bigger stores and online. This latest endeavor touts names such as Doris Panos, Kenneth J. Lane, Kara Ross & Dominique Cohen. From colorful statement necklaces to fine CZ, these collections boast a little something for every taste. I've featured some of my favorites.

Fall's accessories are all about statement-making drama. Beautiful hues, gems, chains and rhinestones will add that something extra to your look.

MAKING A STATEMENT!

I am loving all of the great jewelry this season! My hope is that the designers will continue creating unique designs. I am delighted to see so many of the clothing designers showcasing some of their own statement jewelry on the runways. Oscar De La Renta, Vera Wang and Louis Vuitton come to mind. It is exciting to have so many wonderful pieces to choose from. Even websites such as Forever 21, feature very "budget friendly" pieces. While I absolutely love each and every piece on this page, If I had to choose two, It would be the colored gem stone bib necklace from Loulou De La Falaise. From the bit and pieces that I have read about her, she has been designing Jewelry for many years. This is one piece that I plan to add to my wardrobe. The second would be the "flowing chain" necklace by Ranjana Kahn. It is reasonably priced at $98, as is the "butterfly" necklace. Enjoy the view!
