Bracelets I Cannot Afford is an on-going and irregular series of what are usually large and chunky things I would like to have wrapped around my wrist. Last night I attended a very lovely cocktail party at
Tivol (beautifully and deliciously catered by
Jo Marie Scaglia) featuring the work of
Marco Bicego. Bicego's pieces are lively and undeniably wearable. The cases were two and three people deep. I'll work a little harder when it comes to jewelry and I did nudge my way in to see the wares. There were lots of pretty things, but it was this bold and graphic bracelet that I circled to see three times. Perhaps the article on
Flora Crockett was still bouncing around my brain, but I wanted nothing more than to feel the links against my skin as the colorful stones winked back, reassuring me that the universe is often random and irregularity has its own appeal.
I often think of female artists who have not received their due dignity and respect in the art world. Her pieces are incredible! The bracelet is not bad either!!

Wait just a cotton pickin' minute. We will not be distracted by a little bling, brilliant though it is. We're sitting here waiting for "New Dining Room, Part III".
ReplyDeleteI'd fight you for that bracelet if I could afford it! It's a stunner!
ReplyDeleteWell, this bracelet speaks to me, too. If you think of it as your signature bracelet and wear it all the time, foregoing all others, is it still impossible to acquire? Layaway...my mantra in my younger years.
ReplyDeleteI agree! Excellent idea!
