The ‘Emily’ Bow.. The Bling Society’s ‘Lounge’ Collection…

Here at The Bling Society we are beginning to spread our wings and fly with the news we are now in partnership with Qantas’ Frequent Flyer Program. To celebrate we are releasing a brand new line of jewellery purely for the Qantas Frequent Flyer store.

Taking off with 11 brand new items, this line totaling 16 pieces of the finest costume jewellery is ready to set sail and see the sights of the world. The ‘Lounge’ line of jewellery is built around the concept of effortless beauty. The designs are very minimalistic, with the intention of highlighting the natural beauty of whoever is wearing them.

Less is more when it comes to this range and we hope that the simplicity of these designs can make them a flexible jewellery choice. Whether you are on a long haul flight, on vacation or at a business meeting, let these pieces travel side by side with you through your busy and diverse life..

Legendary Collection.. Tiffany and Co. in Melbourne…

It’s not everyday that one of the biggest names in jewellery comes to your doorstep with a ridiculously expensive collection for you to salivate over, so take advantage of this opportunity while you can Melbourne.

Jewellery heavyweight Tiffany and Co. has brought to Melbourne its Legendary Diamonds collection. As the title suggests the pieces in this collection revolve around some of the most stunning diamonds that Tiffany’s have seen in all of its 160 years in the Jewellery industry.

While its believed that everything has its price, the price tags that will be on display in the Collins St store until August 11 this year will certainly be on the higher side. The Diamond Fringe necklace (above) is on sale for approximately $3 million dollars, and other items from the collection, including the Heart Shaped 10-carat earrings, retail for more than $2.4 Million.

While none of us may have $3 million dollars sitting around, heading into the Melbourne CBD for some window-shopping and a chance to have your own time with these jewels is an opportunity you should pursue. There is only a couple days left until these items are placed back into their turquoise boxes ready to continue their journey around the world, so get in while you still have the chance.

Here is Vogue’s gallery of some of the pieces on display in Melbourne:

The Jewellery Edit: Harry Winston.. The Father of Modern Jewellery…

New Design… Classic Harry Winston…

If there is any Jewellery label that truly understands what jewellery is all about, it’s Harry Winston. The legacy of the jeweller is drowned in acts of goodwill, flawless design and of a career that highlights the aspects of the jewellery world that are the most important.

Just an example of why we love the current crop of Harry Winston jewellery is the ring titled, ‘Emerald and Diamond.’ Spawning from ‘The Incredibles’ collection, the Emerald and Diamond is similar to the jewellery being designed and produced by The Bling Society. Much like The Bling Society, Harry Winston produces bold and statement-making pieces designed to ‘wow’ all of your friends.

The life of Harry Winston is full of interesting stories. The first is of how a young Harry, after growing up in his fathers jewellery shop, spotted a diamond in a thrift shop that he purchased for $0.25, and later sold for $800. As Harry moved into his later life, he donated the Hope Diamond to the Smithsonian in Washington DC. This Diamond is believed to have a value between $200-250 million.

Interesting fact about the father of modern jewellery, the famous song, “Diamonds Are a Girls Best Friend” pays homage to Harry Winston, as one of the interjections in the song goes “Talk to me, Harry Winston, tell me all about it!”

Harry Winston’s Jewellery is all about making an impression, something he himself certainly made on the world of jewellery.

The Jewellery Edit: Introducing the Icon.. A Bling Society Classic…

July 15, 2013 — Leave a comment

Icon Necklace… By The Bling Society®…

Day 1; Blog 1; and it would be remiss of us not to talk about the most popular item in the history of The Bling Society. ‘Icon’ was in the original line of jewellery that The Bling Society first released, and has been a constant on shoppers lists ever since.

The beauty of this piece lies in its transcendent nature. It is crystal clear and beautiful to the extent that it could sit effortlessly along side any high-end item of jewellery, but it is also unassuming, complimenting women who are effortless and confident in their style. The huge upside of this piece is its neutrality. It can be worn with any dress, and any colour.

Not fully convinced? Here are a few comments we’ve received from your fellow shoppers.

‘This necklace is recommended to all that love the bling. I have endless compliments – absolutely love it. A must have necklace’ – Angelina Emmi. New South Wales, Australia

‘You’ll look like you belong on the Red Carpet with this affordable piece of impact Bling. Dazzling.’ – Wendy Archer, Queensland, Australia
