Kudos to Linda Kripe/Link2Jewels

It doesn’t get much better than a mention or nod from Martha Stewart & that’s just what our superstar jewelry dealer, Linda Kripe, got for her vintage jewelry business, Link2Jewels in the current issue of Martha Stewart Weddings.
Linda’s client had her destination wedding written up in this DIY issue & there, prominently featured & credited, was the stunning, sterling silver ~ Art Deco set the bride had purchased from Linda & worn in all the photos. What a coup & so well deserved by one of the nicest & most hard-working gals in the industry.
Linda is known for her fabulous collecting eye, vast collections of remarkable & highly coveted, vintage costume jewelry & most impressive, her impeccable reputation in this business.
She works hard at her trade, stays up on everything happening in the jewelry world, is a highly sought after vendor at all the top shows, including the Del Mar Antique Show & is a beloved dealer by all her many clients & all of us here at Vignettes.
It’s always so sweet when someone this nice & this dedicated gets the monumental recognition they deserve.
Oh Mais Oui ~ It’s a very good thing!

Cote d’Azur

Artists have been escaping to the glorious Cote d’Azur in the South of France since the late 19th century & it’s no wonder with the cobalt-blue sea, feathered palm groves & remarkable light that enchants & epitomizes the captivating Mediterranean lifestyle.
Picasso, Matisse, Bonnard, Leger & Chagall were seduced by the ever-changing color palette that washed over them & it became their own private artistic paradise that they just couldn’t leave.
Living on the coast we feel that same love for those dreamy sea-glass overtones, that iridescent azur blue, the soft blush-pink deep inside a conch shell, the chippy grey of faded driftwood & the glossy white of ocean foam on the shore.
Mother Nature surely has a soft spot for her coasts & always displays some of her finest handiwork for us to admire.
"Coastal Chic" - It’s an awe-inspiring, calming, almost therapeutic décor concept to create within le maison.
We have it in abundance…shimmering, glimmering, waiting for you.
Come soak it up.
