Sunday Brunch: Our New Web Store!

May 26, 2020
 
Dear friends,

This is a big week for Icon Style and we couldn't be more excited to share this with you, our friends and clients! We have been working on developing a new website and while work from home conditions have been difficult in many ways, it has been the perfect time to put the finishing touches on this project. 

 

Every cloud has a silver lining! This will hopefully open a lot of doors for us and our business, as well as allow our customers easier access to many of our wonderful treasures while our charming little shop is closed. Hop on over to check out new features like our curated collections, a gallery of clients rocking their Icon Style pieces, and a list of TV and movies we have had the pleasure to contribute jewelry to. 

 
This week: The New and Improved IconStyle.net!
 
The culmination of a year's work and a way for you to connect with our new baubles and treasures!  So grab your Prosecco and berries and let's raise a glass to celebrate all of us crossing some projects off our to do lists in the past month! Cheers! And now if you're ready, let's dive into some jewels now available on our new site!

Sterling Silver Charm Bracelet with English Fob Charms

14k Gold Perfume Bottle Necklace

If you've been living off pasta and Twizzlers like I have during quarantine, this milagro ex-voto might make the perfect COVID-19 talisman. Milagros, or "miracles," are traditionally left at places of worship as offerings to saints to represent a prayer. The prayer can be for anything related to the shape of the milagro, so this one could be used for digestive issues, injuries to the torso, or in this case a prayer to lose the weight I'll inevitably gain during lockdown.

40s Bib Necklace with Bezel Set Teardrop Glass Drops

 

This Karl Lagerfeld design takes the versatility of the gold chain to the next level. Which a toggle clasp and 50" of length, you can easily change up the look of the piece. See the photos on the site for just a few of the different ways to style it.


60s 14k Gold and Diamond Crab Necklace

Georg Jensen Sterling Silver Tulip Brooch

This 1930s arm cuff is a wonderful example of how jewelry and fashion trends evolve together. Arm cuffs, which were hugely popular in Ancient Egypt and Greece, experienced a long dormancy until the 1920s-30s when sleeveless shift dresses came into fashion and those bare biceps once again demanded adornment!

30s Art Deco French "Tortoise" Celluloid and Rhinestone Arm Cuff

Art Nouveau 14k Gold Floral Navette Ring with Tourmaline and Pearl

80s Huge Valentino Garavani Pavé Rhinestone Frog Brooch

This week's items are all available through our website (with free US shipping, don't forget!), just click on the photo to go straight to the web store listing. As always if you have any questions about a piece or how to make a purchase, please don't hesitate to reach out!

Gift certificates are also available through the new site in various amounts if you want to support the store during these tough times and enjoy a sparkly reward for it later. Gift certificates are redeemable online or in store and never expire.

Please let us know what you think of the new website! We are still finding little kinks and room for improvement and customer feedback is so valuable and much appreciated.
 
 
And if you need more than just a little retail therapy, here are some fun Stay at Home activities for this week:
  • Check out the #amabiechallenge on Instagram. This Japanese spirit is part mermaid, part bird and believed to ward off plagues, so you can imagine why the Gram has been abuzz with images of her.
  • Earth Day Gardening! Earth Day was on the 22nd, and the Icon Style team all made sure to hug some trees and kiss some houseplants. Whether you are more likely to plant a tree or to admire your windowsill cactus from a safe distance, remember to say thanks to Mother Nature for always being there for us.
  • And everybody's obsessed with Leslie Jordan's Instagram, including us! If you haven't seen his hilarious quarantine antics yet, enjoy and you're welcome!


Thank you all for your support. See you next week with some more wonderful sparkles!

 
Lots of love and well wishes,
Lara Kornbluh and the Icon Style Team
