Style Watch: Mariah Carey Scintillates in David Yurman Earrings at 2015 Billboard Music Awards

OK, so the consensus seems to be that the award show itself was a bona fide hot mess. Performances were poorly shot and the event painfully MC'd. But speaking of MCs, another MC--Mariah Carey--was there, and at 46, the bombshell still slays the red carpet. In a Tom Ford dress and David Yurman high-jewelry earrings, Carey owned her timeless beauty.

The David Yurman F/W '15-16 Press Preview Roundup

This week David Yurman previewed its fall-winter '15-16 collections to select press at its corporate headquarters in New York City. Out of love for you, dear reader, I've gone ahead and done the tiresome, time-consuming work of combing through social media--and scanning every single post tagged "David Yurman"--to get you the scoop. Here's what I've been able to dig up thus far:


Coming soon are bow rings designed by Evan Yurman in honor of and tribute to his mother, Sybil


There are conflicting reports as to whether or not the pieces are designed for wear primarily on the pinky finger. What is clear, however, is that Evan designed the pieces for Sybil who, apparently, has always desired a bow ring. Previewed were rings with pave-set rubies and sapphires (see below). The price point is unknown at this time.

DY Ay!

Friday's here and with it comes a(nother) typo on DavidYurman.com to add some levity, you know, just for good measure. Yes, our culture has already assimilated a "McSteamy" and Boeing's Dreamliner and so why not Streamiline? Take a look:

It's unclear at this point what the neologism "Streamiline" means. A line made or consisting of streams? Possibly. A cable design capable of supporting streaming video content? It's possible. A case of hurried typing being prematurely published? Likely. All the same, don't you think a call to David Yurman for clarification is in order? Yes, I think I'll reach out. "Hello, ma'am or sir. Connect me to the manager of your Streamiline Collection, please. ...Yes, that's right: I said 'Stream-ee-line.' Yes, I'll hold."

:) DYguy out.

Not Just for Justin Timberlake Anymore: Yurman Releases Lightning Men's Pieces to Public

Did you know David Yurman outfitted Justin Timberlake in all those haut accessories he donned on his 20/20 Experience World Tour last year? It's true, and I now enter this now-forty-three-week-old Instagram post as evidence:

Whoever snapped this clearly needs 
a lesson in visual staging.

























The good news is, a mere ten months later, modified versions of the pieces designed exclusively for JT are now available to the public. Already in boutiques and slowly coming online are lightning bolt pieces from what appears to be a newly-christened Symbols Collection. 

Stay tuned for details on this collection--I'll have them as they emerge--but for now, take a gander at these two beauts presently being advertised on DavidYurman.com.
