Dear Members,
At the risk of arousing contentious passions,-oh why not!!!- I must strongly dissent with the idea that somehow less is more with regard to jewelry or anything else for that matter. That Idea is just so much nonsense. The real aim should be balance and taste not hypocritical declarations of poverty or modesty, bogus or otherwise, we are just another of the well to do unwashed masses here, etc. etc.
I would agree that the ruby thingie is rather overdone. Should be toned down abit, for sake of balance and taste. Lady K the divine's latest concoction just proves my point. Camilla, she of the interesting Past, certainly was not less bedecked in that gorgeous reveille (?), tiara etc of Queen Mary. But there was balance. And hence it works superbly. Besides as every woman of any sense knows, one suggests, one does not put one's cleavage and bosoms on a platter for the dining room table as it were. There are entirely too many starlet wannabes out there on magazine covers and elsewhere with their nitwit smiles and that too obvious displays of their wares surpassed only by the emptiness of their not so pretty little heads. Cheers.
I prefer the wedding tiara with her new style, the ruby parure looks to large
