Sunday Brunch: Mother's Day Special Edition

May 10, 2020

Dear friends,

On this Sunday every year we usually host our "Mother's Day Mimosas" soirée in the boutique. We share in some brunch, some bubbly, and a rose to honor all the special moms amongst our friends and clients. It is one of our favorite yearly traditions and always a delight to share an afternoon of sipping and shopping with all our stylish moms and their equally stylish children and fur babies!

Since this year we can't have our in-store get together, we have created a little lookbook inspired by our Mother's Day Mimosa tradition. We decided to pick some of our favorite quintessential brunch cocktails and pair them with jewelry looks (all fully shoppable!)

We hope you can mix yourself up a little something (you can click the picture of the cocktail for a link to the full recipe!), and sit down with the family, whether in person or virtually, and enjoy the royal Icon Style Mother's Day treatment!

This Week: Mother's Day Cocktails!

Mimosa
The Mimosa! A summer's day in a glass, champagne and orange juice combine for the classic Icon Style Mother's Day cocktail. For jewelry we've gone for a bubbly summer look, featuring a Victorian era coral bangle, floral mosaic bracelet, a Byzantine inspired gold ring, and some Art Nouveau era Mexican fire opals.

Bloody Mary
Bloody Mary! The Bloody Mary is all about piling it on, from the flavors to the garnishes, so for jewelry we have a many-layered bracelet stack that plays with mixing hard and soft. For rings we have a wonderful Georgian era carnelian intaglio and gold Victorian buckle ring.

Bellini
Peach Bellini! Champagne is back, this time paired with peach puree. For this look, we have a sterling silver swizzle stick (used for getting the bubbles out of champagne, if that's your preference) and a wonderful Art Deco locket in rose gold and platinum with a dizzying swirl motif.

Mojito
Mojito! Minty fresh with a bit of lime, the mojito is perfect for keeping it cool, and keeping them guessing, as is this black and white Art Deco jewelry look! White gold and diamond rings, paired with some wonderful Czech glass beads that look oh so good layered together.

Sangria
Sangria! A favorite summer treat for wine lovers like myself, the jewelry look is all about rich colors and lush layers. The necklace look is two multi-strand pieces, one a 1930s Mogul inspired collar, the other a 1940s number with luscious red briolettes. It also features our favorite French Deco rhinestone arm cuff.

All the jewelry from these looks is available for purchase! If you are interested in a piece just reply to this email and we'll send you the details. We are doing free U.S. shipping for all orders, whether through the newsletter, website, or Instagram, as a thank you for the customers who are supporting us during this time.

Stay at Home Mother's Day activities:
  • CALL YOUR MOTHER!!! LOL And then go watch an old episode of the Golden Girls, because who doesn't love Estelle.
  • Have an at home spa day! Try DIY face masks, a mani-pedi, and a nice soak in the tub.
  • Take a virtual tour of Kew Gardens!

A very Happy Mother's Day to all the moms who are reading this, and a special shout out to the Icon Style moms- Natalie, Sarah, Kathie and Lydia!

Lots of love and well wishes,
