Cartier

 

Cartier is a name that is still synonymous with high-end fashion today, and Cartier was known for using a wide variety of precious metals and gemstones in jewellery design. There is no type of jewellery they did not master, and the earlier jewellery designs are valuable, which makes them also highly sought after by collectors.

 

Cartier created everything from affordable centrepieces for the dining room table to exquisite one-of-a-kind designs for royalty across the globe. If you are looking for Cartier inspired style of jewellery, you can start looking at the reputable shops or dealers online where most collectors go to buy antique engagement rings and other pieces of authentic antique treasures. These stores will often have jewellery designs such as Cartier’s, which are excellent for popping the question to your loved one.

 

Boucheron

 

Boucheron started gaining attention for their beautiful jewellery designs in 1858, but it was not until the Exposition Internationale des Arts Decoratifs et Industriels in Paris in 1925 that they hit the mainstream. It was the birth of the Art Deco movement, which heavily influenced jewellery design in this period.

The jewellery design they are famous for in this era was a bracelet that was adorned with sapphires, emeralds, and rubies, that were arranged to imitate bubbles floating on water. Set against a background of enamelled rods and having diamonds along the edges made this piece stand out and was also the catalyst for Boucheron becoming one of the best jewellery designers in this period, and it was a massive hit at the exhibition.

 

Boivin

 

Jeanne Boivin took over her company after her husband died in 1917, and it soon became one of the leaders at the forefront of the jewellery and fashion industry. One of the most famous pieces the company designed was a starfish brooch that they completed in the 1930s and was designed by Juliette Moutard.

 

Claudette Colbert purchased the brooch after her movie “It Happened One Night” won an academy award in 1934, propelling her to the height of stardom. The beautiful brooch was made from gold, rubies, and amethysts and featured in the magazine Vogue an unprecedented four times between 1937 and 1945.

 

Jean Dunand

 

Jean Dunand was another designer from the Art Deco period, and he would design decorative arts, create portraits, and make exquisite jewellery. He worked on some high-end projects, including decorating rooms with lacquer on luxurious cruise ships, such as the Normandie.

When creating a portrait, the subject would often be wearing some of his jewellery designs, which was an excellent way to advertise at the time. He embraced modern design while incorporating luxurious materials into them and soon became a name synonymous with beautiful jewellery.

 

There have been many excellent designers throughout the 20th century, and these are just a few of the best. If this has piqued your interest in jewellery from this period, visit your local antique jewellery store and see what pieces are available that were most likely inspired by one of the jewellery designing greats.

5 Ways to Express Your Humor Through Fashion

 

A sense of humor is something that is admired by many and it can make someone more attractive and loveable. If you are known for being a funny person and you want to express your humor more often, then you should consider doing so through your clothing options. By wearing fun/funny clothes, you can make people smile without even approaching them. It can also make you feel more comfortable about being yourself, especially if you are shy around new people. If you want the world to smile with you, here are 5 ways you can express your humor through fashion.

Bright Colors

Bright colors can be a fantastic way to get noticed by people and can act as a metaphor for your fun and exuberant personality. This choice will work best for people who are confident and want the world to see them. If you choose to wear bright colors, you should find the right ones that work well with your skin tone and style. They should also coordinate with each other, especially during formal events.

Funny Socks

Funny socks are a great way to subtly express your funny side. Whether you are at a social gathering or in a work meeting, funny socks can be an addition to your outfit. Even though they won’t be seen by many, knowing that you have them on could make you feel more comfortable about being yourself. Nothing is better than a stressed colleague noticing them and having a giggle during your lunch break.

Unique Designs

Unique designs can be a great way to express your humor through your knowledge of fashion. They will make you stand out from the crowd and will allow people to appreciate your fashion sense alongside your humor. When you choose to wear something unique, it doesn’t always have to be a serious decision, especially for socializing. The most important thing is that you feel comfortable.

Witty Accessories

Witty accessories can be another subtle way to show people that you appreciate comedy. They are also key for finishing off an outfit, whether you are out socializing or in a professional setting. Some examples of witty accessories include novelty cufflinks, a quirky handbag, funny jewelry, unique frames for your glasses, funky sunglasses, and joke ties, so there are plenty of options to choose from.

Amusing Shirts

Seeing someone in an amusing t-shirt can make your day and can be the perfect way to express your humor while making strangers smile. There are many different designs and jokes available, but if you want something that truly reflects your personality, then you should consider designing one yourself. You could wear this design yourself or consider it as a gift for someone who appreciates your humor.

Expressing your humor through fashion can be bold or subtle. This will allow you to choose something that you feel comfortable in or that can be worn in a variety of different settings. If you make one person smile with you, then the choice will be worth it.

 


3 Common Eye Issues That Can Develop as You Age

Age isn’t something to fear, rather it is a badge of honor that people can embrace. As you age it’s common to learn more about yourself and the world around, and learn to be more appreciative of life in general. And while those are most certainly the positives in aging, there are some negatives too. There are health issues that people can start to develop that are often directly linked to age, or at least more common in the aging population.

With that said let’s take a look at three common eye issues that can start to develop as you age.

Dry Eyes

Here's a relatively minor issue that can start to develop with your eyes, but it can be bothersome. Dry eyes feel like just that, your eyes are more dry than then used to be and therefore they can get red, itchy, and even burn a bit. The reason this happens is that your tear glands aren’t making enough tears anymore. The good news is that there are lots of effective ways to address the issue such as over-the-counter eye drops, prescription eye drops, using a humidifier in your home, and in more severe cases, surgery.

While this tends to be a more irritating problem than anything else, there is the possibility of it leading to blindness, so if you’re suffering from dry eyes it’s best to see the doctor as soon as possible.

Eye Floaters

Eye floaters are described as small little dots, specks, or spots that are floating in your eye and actually affect your vision. You can see them as you look at objects, and they tend to be more pronounced on days that are really bright and sunny. Again it's best to talk to your doctor if this is happening, but in general they tend to be pretty normal and nothing to be concerned about as long as they don't suddenly happen.

Glaucoma

Glaucoma is an eye disease that is more common in people as they age, and unfortunately it is a rather serious issue. It is caused by an excess of pressure that is inside your eye, which can actually lead to permanent blindness. The key to addressing this issue is early detection and treatment. Treatment can include special eye drops or even surgery depending on how severe your glaucoma is. There are also different kinds of glaucoma, which is something your eye doctor will be able to diagnose.

Some of the early warning signs that you may have glaucoma developing include blurry vision that has suddenly started, red eyes, nausea, a halo effect around lights, eye pain that is severe, headaches, a feeling of pressure in your eye, nausea, vomiting, and even tunnel vision.

Be Aware of the Signs to Watch For

While the simple fact that you’re aging doesn’t mean you’ll have eye issues, it is important to realize that things can start to happen. Knowing what the warning signs and symptoms are is important so you can get checked out as soon as possible.
