Python, a must-have accessory for fall

Rev up your animal magnetism this fall with a carefully selected python accessory. Appearing in a multitude of shades such as emerald green, magenta, and cobalt, as well as natural, python has an incredible texture and unmistakable pattern, and pairs perfectly with a multitude outfits, taking them from 0 to fabulous instantly. Appropriate at any age, python is a fashion statement that can range from edgy and chic to glamorous and sophisticated, depending how you put your look together. Because it is considered a classic, investing in a piece this fall when a variety of python-adorned accessories are available will not only ensure that you get the one that’s right for you, it will be a piece you hang onto for many seasons to come.

Whether a belt, scarf, clutch, cuff bracelet or those cute little high-heeled Mary Janes that are so popular for fall, accessorizing with python, or a python-inspired print provides an instant lift to items you already have in your closet. For example, pair a high-waisted python belt with a sleeveless shift dress and slip on a coordinating cardigan for a simple, pulled-together style that glides effortlessly from daytime to cocktail hour. Or, add a python cuff bracelet, such as the one pictured by Gigi Chic, a local Scottsdale designer, to jeans and a fitted white tee for an updated dressed-down look. And, for an evening out, grab a python clutch in magenta and pair with your favorite little black dress. (We love the one from Michael Kors that just debuted at Nordstrom.) No matter which accessory piece fits your style and budget, keep on the lookout for an item featuring python for an incredibly versatile and statement-making addition to your fall wardrobe!

What are Swarovski Crystals?

Posted in GIGI Buzz by gigichic on February 11, 2008

Swarovski is the luxury brand name for the range of precision-cut lead crystal glass products produced by companies owned by Swarovski AG of Feldmeilen, near Zürich, Switzerland.

Swarovski Logo

Swarovski crystal was first created when Daniel Swarovski invented an automatic cutting machine in 1892. In 1895 the Swarovski company was founded when he established a crystal cutting factory in Wattens. Here he could take advantage of local hydroelectricity for the energy-intensive grinding processes he had patented.

In order to create a crystal that allows light to refract in a rainbow spectrum, Swarovski coats some of its crystals with special metallic chemical coatings. Aurora Borealis, or “AB”, is one of the most popular coatings, and gives the surface a rainbow oil slick appearance. Other coatings include Crystal Transmission, Volcano, Aurum, and Dorado. Coatings may be applied to only part of an object; others are coated twice, and thus are designated AB 2X, Dorado 2X etc.

In 2004 Swarovski released Xilion, a new copyrighted cut designed to optimise the brilliance of Roses (crystal components with flat backs) and Chatons (diamond cut). Also in 2004, Swarovski created the 9 foot diameter, 550 pound star that tops the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree in New York City for the first of five consecutive years.
