Did you watch the Emmy Awards last night? The jewelry seen on the Red Carpet was amazing! Although I was surprised to see some celebrities wearing minimal, if any jewelry at all. As usual, overstated, over-the-top, statement jewelry was the jewelry trend last night and the  favorite metal had to be Platinum (and I loved every minute of it!)

By far, jewelry from Lorraine Schwartz had to be the hands down celeb favorite of the night. From Heid Klum to Sofia Vergara to Emily Blunt to Lea Michele to Jane Krakowski, so many celebrities were wearing her intricate and embellished jewelry. My favorite had to be the necklace worn by Lea Michele, who just looked amazing all together, I don't think there was a single fashion or beauty don't with her last night!

Cartier was were worn by celebrities like January Jones (did you see that dress? Yikes!) and Dianna Agron. 

I was excited to hear that Naya Rivera's ring and brooch were from Le Vian. (Le Vian is my most favorite jewelry brand!) The ring was 14K set in strawberry gold and the brooch was a multi-colored Sapphire flower. The jewelry was simple and brilliant, her hair? Not so much.

Which celebrity wore your favorite jewelry of the night?

We've heard lots of stories of recalled children's jewelry this year that contained the toxic metal, cadmium. From Walmart to McDonald's to The Limited Too, it appeared that these retailers, until outted by the press, rarely (if ever) looked into what metals the manufacturers of these jewelry lines were using. And what about if you do jewelry PR for these companies and/or these jewelry lines? How can you market jewelry that could potentially cause cancer? Truth is, you can't.

As the demand continues for products that tie into health, it's surprising to me to hear that a bill submitted to the California Assembly this past week to ban jewelry containing more than 300 parts per million of cadmium from being made or sold in California beginning in 2012 (according to the LA Times) still had 15 that opposed the ban to 41 who approved it. I wonder if those 15 have children. And why wait until 2012 to start protecting our children from wearing jewelry that is harmful to their health?

What are your thoughts on the ban? Are there efforts going on where you live to stop jewelry from being made or sold that contain cadmium in it?

Wedding Public Relations: Introducing MENS-WEDDING-RINGS.COM, a new niche e-commerce site offering an unparalleled selection of men’s wedding rings.

Online shoppers looking for men’s wedding rings will be happy to learn about the grand opening of Mens-Wedding-Rings.com, a brand-new specialty online jewelry store which will offer an unparalleled selection of wedding rings for men. In keeping with a trend toward niche-oriented online retailing, Mens-Wedding-Rings.com will focus exclusively on men’s wedding bands and rings. The company’s product offerings have been carefully chosen to reflect the most popular and sought-after styles in men’s rings; featuring a wide variety of unique and alternative wedding rings, designer brands, and a broad range of traditional and industrial metals.

Mens-Wedding-Rings.com (MWR) was created to meet the growing demand for a more diverse assortment of men’s wedding rings. Recent buying trends indicate that a new generation of customers is looking beyond the traditional gold domed wedding band. Newer, more durable metals such as titanium, tungsten, and palladium are starting to appear next to gold and platinum in the collections of many jewelry designers. Men are also starting to wear wedding rings made from stainless steel and sterling silver.

Several top designers are now featuring collections of unique and alternative wedding bands, including textured and two-toned men’s wedding rings made with carbon fiber inlays, black and silver-toned titanium or tungsten, and a variety of faceted, engraved, and grooved styles. Plus, men are now requesting “Comfort-fit” and “Euro-fit” style rings in addition to the traditional flat-fit band.

With all of these options to choose from, MWR makes it possible for every man to find a ring that expresses his personal style without visiting dozens of web sites. Men can now select from hundreds of popular men’s wedding rings by visiting just one web site - Mens-Wedding-Rings.com.

Before starting MWR, Roy and Judy Devine already shared an entrepreneurial spirit and a passion for delivering value to customers. Roy Devine spent decades in the “brick and mortar” world, building successful marketing and distribution networks for consumer product lines throughout the United States and Canada. In recent years, his high-energy “make it happen” approach has been directed toward building successful niche-oriented Internet businesses, with a focus on doing one thing and doing it right.

When they began researching online jewelry stores, the owners were surprised to find no other retail web site offered a good selection of men’s wedding bands in larger sizes. In response to this need, Mens-Wedding-Rings.com (MWR) offers the largest selection of large-size men’s wedding rings on the Internet - in sizes up to 17.

Mens-Wedding-Rings.com aims to fill a need for men who want a single, reliable online source for wedding bands and rings.
