First published in Tell Us Fashion on 16 November 2011.


Solange Azagury-Partridge introduced her unique approach to jewelry at IFC Mall after rocking Bond Street with pieces that aren’t just pretty bling blings, but makes bold statements. She began her journey by designing her own engagement ring, and it led onto a career in creating surreal pieces, each telling a story of its own. With an unconventional sense of beauty, her designs lie between pop art and ancient mysticism. Look at her collection of playful rings!




Her stores all have the same goal: to enhance the shopping experience. Wooden paneling matched with luscious red velvet and silver ball mirror creates a theatrical journey in discovering the secret world. Make your Christmas shopping more enjoyable and stop by this exquisite salon!


Doorstepluxury.com just launched a Bangkok Design Collective for Flood Relief. As a gateway to the renowned Fashion Weeks, they went an extra mile with Singaporean jeweler Marilyn Tan and reached out to Bangkok’s jewelry designers, whose lives have been affected by the recent floods. Rest assured that all the profits made from their colourful earrings collection will go directly to the designers. It is way better to help the Thai designers in helping themselves, rather than merely providing donations!


Fancy something more exotic? Firouzeh Jewelry offers pieces with a Byzantine twist! British jewelry designer, Touran Reddaway, with Iranian and British heritage, brings out the mysterious aspect from her days in Iran and Turkey, and channels it towards her designs. I love these Byzantine Angels, which are perfect for the Christmas spirit!


Her pieces are built upon forging traditional Persian customs with modern designs. These gems were each made with a particular ancient tale in mind, so here’s your chance in grasping a tiny part of the Middle East for keepsake. These Tradition Dragonflies are rather refreshing, and will make an eye-catching piece at a dinner date or a night out!


What do Madonna and Kate Moss have in common? They are all fans of David Yurman’s iconic jewelry! Their pieces have been attracting trendsetters and celebs for over for 30 years. The Starburst Collection is their ultimate tribute for 2011 F/W, resembling a shining a ray of light in the illuminated night sky. It was first featured with BeyoncĂ© on a cover shot in W Magazine, so follow the stunning celeb-studded trail and get the ultimate piece for your Christmas look!
