New Must Have: Coffee table book

To celebrate Dolce & Gabbana Men’s 20th anniversary, the Italian designers have released a coffee table book titled Uomini, which is the Italian word for men, which is what the book beautiful photographs depict, which is why we are blogging about it. 

Well, that's not the ONLY reason we are blogging about it... a portion of the proceeds from the book will go to a charity to help Florence’s Uffizi Gallery. 

We might just by this for the office…it’s for a good cause after all.

Available at Amazon and Dolce and Gabbana retailers world wide today.

Dylan's Candy Bar

Introducing the latest addition to Dylan's Candy Bar, M&M'S jewelry by Monet.

Dylan's Candy Bar was started by Dylan Lauren, daughter of famed designer Ralph Lauren.  

Dylan's started as a small movie candy destination for Upper East siders in 2001, and now her multi-store empire has grown to have world wide recognition.  Dylan's is not only a tourist "must-see," but a local Manhattanite's secret as well. 

M&M's jewelry by Monet was launched in the Fall of 2010 nationwide, and has been flying off the shelves.  We believed that there couldn't be a better partner for this brand than Dylan's Candy Bar, and they thought so, too!

You can find the fixture downstairs in the "M&M corner" right next to the cash wrap. We won't be hard to find, as we are the only Jewelry Brand on the floor!

Get there and tell us what you think!!!

Happy shopping candy-ophiles!

Favorite Fridays- Cupcakes and Cashmere

Today's favorite blog wins due to popularity.  We recently polled our Facebook fans as who their favorite fashion blogs were, and Emily's blog, Cupcakes and Cashmere, was among the top for everyone!  And ever since YOU told us about her,  she has been popping up everywhere...

I love her because she is real.  She is beautiful.  She is fashionable.  She is fun.  Reading her blog makes me want to be her friend.  And, she inspires me to be more creative.  Plus, she is engaged, and we at Monet just love a blushing bride to be!! 

Emily, call us for some jewels!!

And, obviously Monet has something for everyone- get your very own cupcake keepsake for $25 here!

**thanks for the reminder, Ang!!! 

Trend Thursdays- 1970s

If you haven't noticed over the past few months, fashion trends have been taking cues from prior decades.  High waisted pants, pendant necks, bright Southern California chic stripes, and maxi-length dresses; you could say that the 1970s are back in full force.


Marc Jacobs, Jason Wu, Thakoon, and Rodarte.

Monet's new arrivals are also inspired by our 1970 archives.  From gold goose neck necklaces to white resin pendant charms, we have been hit by the bug! Shop Monet.com for styles.

Betty White in Monet

To say that Betty White has had a comeback would be an understatement. 

From her 2010 Super Bowl Snickers commercial to hosting her hilarious Saturday Night Live episode last year, Betty has been on fire. 

So, when we got word that she wore Monet in her latest movie, "The Lost Valentine," we were ecstatic!
