Feast your eyes on the gorgeous gold pieces on JCK's November/December cover, with a lot more inside. I pulled pieces from Ralph Masri, L. Klein, Umrao and Belle Brooke for the cover. Inside we've got more from Cadar, Vram, Ray Griffiths, Rahaminov and others. Super fun to be on set with beautiful jewelry, and also an incredible team including photographer Joel Stans and prop stylists Emily & Tony Mullin....

Read more about Spike's jewels and other editor's choices (Lady Gaga, Charlize, Julia, etc.) here....

There are few shoots as fun as jewelry shoots - shiny pretty things you can try on, over and over again. This time, it was all about gold. Some of it was super '80s, some more minimal. Our cover model, Anabela, is sporting Herco earrings, a Gabriel & Co. ring, and bracelets by Royal Chain, Philip Gavriel and Pomellato. See the entire story here....
Dom Vetro is a relatively new eyewear brand founded by an ex finance/tech guy. I know, I know, but it really is legit, and you can read all about why here. The net net: the frames are very cool, hand made, and cost less than most designer frames (which, btw, are made in China). You're welcome....
