These new, charming little locks in the great tradition of Tiffany & Co., are a modern twist to classic designs buried in the archives of the famed jewelry design house. In sterling silver, gold, rose gold, platinum and with pave diamonds, the locks are a signature piece debuting this Valentine’s season at Tiffany & Co. Scottsdale Fashion Square. Not all locks are available to the public just yet, but the fabulous staff is available to show you the new additions available now. Sterling silver charms start at $80 and the chains are sold separately. Diamond locks are priced up to $6,000 and may be a special order at this time.

The photo I have attached is of me before leaving to go to my high school graduation. I’m wearing a vintage dress from the 1960′s which I believe was handmade. My personal style could most easily be described as mod (from the fashion-conscious youth subculture that originated in 60′s London), but with a touch of glamour to modernize the overall look. For example, I’ll pair a shift dress with an army green parka, and add a glitzy statement necklace as a finishing touch.
I am very interested in fashion styling as a career. I spend the majority of my free time researching everything from current runway fashion and upcoming trends to fashion history and vintage magazine spreads. I will begin attending Chandler-Gilbert Community College this semester in hopes of transferring to NAU to pursue a degree in Merchandising. I could definitely use this training! Although I have a general sense of what looks good on people, I feel that I could benefit from knowing more about different body types and what clothing would suit these figures best.
What defines a style icon? To me a style icon is someone who is smart, strong, independent and innovative. A style icon loves to experiment and have fun with fashion, making it seem effortless. Two of my favorite fashion inspirations are Iman and Audrey Hepburn.
Iman (Iman Abdulmajid) is Somali-American supermodel, actress and entrepreneur. She was discovered by fashion photographer Peter Beard. A year later, she was modeling for Vogue in 1975. Iman became an inspiration and muse to many including designer Yves Saint-Laurent. She started her own cosmetics firm in 1994 and is currently involved in numerous charitable endeavors. Iman works with the Children’s Defense Fund and is a spokesperson for the Keep a Child Alive program.
Audrey Hepburn is another one of my fashion inspirations. I’ve always admired Audrey’s impeccable sense of style and her charity work. She had a graceful, humble spirit and was the epitome of chic. Audrey was born Edda Kathleen van Heemstra Hepburn-Ruston and trained as a dental assistant before making it big. Her famous “little black dress” from Breakfast at Tiffany’s, designed by Givenchy, was sold at auction for $920,000.
