Comin' down a chimney near you

It's almost time! Robertacharella.com has broken records with our 'embrace' collection and we're just thrilled. So many people ordered some items they literally sold out. But fear not, one of our best sellers, the chunky necklace, is available and ready to ship. You've got just a couple of days, we will rush out our orders on Monday 12/19 to get it to you before Christmas. After that, well, in a pinch I've wrapped up a photo of the item and given it when the actual gift is late so I'll leave it to your imagination.

But you've probably gotten cousin Diane and her beautiful daughter Carly their gifts, the presents for your friends Linda and Binty are already in the mail to their homes. So treat yourself to something while it's on sale! In the winter you have so many opportunities to wear great earrings and necklaces, think bold when it comes to jewelry.



Get some sparkly big jewelry to go with this sweater!



If you've got a reindeer sweater to wear (thanks, aunt Elsie) get something colorful and sparkly to draw attention to your jewelry! Nobody will notice a tiny delicate earring, so get something fantastic like the 'larger paisley' or angie earring. You don't want a little necklace to hide under your scarves, your winter fashion jewelry ought to be big to be seen, so take a look at a statement necklace. You can wear the Brava Bib necklace with a red blouse and look festive and fantastic!



Chunky Necklace featured in InStyle!



When you gather with family, antique and estate jewelry always looks great, especially when Aunt Lorraine will be wearing a bracelet she bought in 1955 that looks amazing. What you can do is pick up our Moonstone Earrings, these beauties are made from stones I found in the basement of our jewelry factory which has been in the same family for generations. These beautiful stones were probably purchased in 1950 and there weren't a lot of them so I took them all. When these sell out that's it so get a pair today.

When you're done shopping take a deep breath and relax. Soon it'll be Christmas and hopefully you've been invited to spend some time with family and friends. It's been a long year and finally we get to enjoy a couple of quiet weeks and holidays. May you and yours enjoy good health, peace and prosperity in the coming year, thank you all for your support. Ciao!

"O" my! The Hottest fall trends

Hello, we're back! Thanks to everyone who emailed after the last post, happily our hurricane repairs are going well and the house is coming back together. Our first priority was to make sure every order is filled and shipped and our fall collections and upcoming holiday jewelry launches are going according to schedule, and I am thrilled everything is going well.

Everyone loves our fall collection, the Embrace look is a must-have and has gotten great press. Our friends are the first ones to "Embrace" the best fall looks for 2011 and it's no surprise that people who write about the trends include robertachiarella.com for our hot and trendy necklaces.

Your fall look should 'sing the blues' and we've got some great choices for you! The Rockstar necklace is my favorite, a perfect style for fall with great colored resin pieces. Sit by the fire and the polished lightweight resin stones just glow!

I think the best fall looks embrace the season, and so put away the brightly colored summer outfits and tops and choose colors that are subdued and not flashy. That does not mean boring, I love lavender and honeydew and burgundy, midnight blue looks great this time of year and if you can wear it, dark orange hues can give you a wonderful seasonal appearance. Jewelry should complement the softer colors of your clothes and be a bit brighter to provide that 'wow' factor.

Take a look at O, the Oprah magazine on the newsstands right now. They chose our LaStrada Bib Necklace and the Dolcetti Necklace as the perfect accent pieces for a great fall look. You can get these for a super price on the website. The Superstar Earrings, in great fall colors, are featured in Glamour, you have to own these sparkly, beautiful Swarovski Elements earrings. We've got a wonderful blue, a cool grey and a great black for you to choose from, you can take $10 off with the FALL10 promo code and maybe buy more than one!

We're always available to answer questions, or you can send me a pic and we'll help you choose the right accessory in the perfect color to complement your wardrobe. Fall is a cool season but your look should stay hot, and we're here to help! Ciao. . .
