vintage necklaces
June 29, 2006philippine’s gorgeous television host and producer, daphne osena-paez, has collected antiques and vintage treasures for years. this one-time bridal magazine editor-in-chief grew up and studied in toronto with a degree in art history and urban planning - has an extensive collection of antique medallions, crosses and gems. started as a hobby (and she claims it still is), her love for jewelry has expanded to creating one-of-a-kind vintage necklaces comprising of lockets, pearls, cameos, precious gemstones and her hard-to-part-with antique religious petite artifacts. apart from these, she also has designed black onyx pieces and faux-pearl necklaces wrapped in tulle. i wonder if she will ever dabble on creating earrings and bracelets, too. i guess, time will tell!

on prancing horses and timepieces
April 20, 2006the merging of two italian brands has made my husband spinning with joy!
ferrari has collaborated with panerai to officially create their watches for the sleek luxury automobile brand. their previous contract with girard-perregaux expired and has tapped this other italian timepiece brand to start the new project collection for them.
the designs are simple but yet it has that distinct understated luxury and elegance that reflects both brands’ style!
