Sometimes something just catches my eye, and then I can't stop imagining the different ways in which I can design it into jewelry. Lately, I have been inspired by gold leaf. I absolutely love figuring out all the ways I can design earrings, necklaces, and bracelets with these pieces. Here is a sneak peek of some of my most recent designs!

Late last night I was able to see my hard work, and long time dream come to life. Late last night the website for Dusk & Rubies Special Occasion Jewelry Designs went live!
Our newest collection is now available on our very own website!
So check out more pictures from our look books, and stay tuned for more:
When it comes to fall accessories "chunky" is a word that has positive connotations. We want chunky chains that layer nicely over our knits, and crew neck long sleeves from J. Crew. (Ah fall...I am getting excited just thinking about the boots alone) Enjoy :)
One step inside Queen City Cupcakes, and you'll think you have died and gone to pinterest heaven. You won't be able to resist snapping a few photos with your smartphone. I know I couldn't, as you'll play witness to my lack of restraint below.
While it's name, Queen City Cupcakes, may be deceiving, those of you who love a little indulgence will be pleasantly surprised that you can indulge in not only cupcakes, but also hot sellers like Carol's (the shop's owner) specialty vegan bars. And, if you're looking for a treat that's just a sweet, but not as sugary then you're also in the right place. Carol has her specialty shop set up to perfection, so that everyone who wanders in from Main Street will be greeted with an eyeful of enchantment.
One of my favorite pieces from the Dusk & Rubies "How Country Feels" Fall Collection 2013
There's Dusk & Rubies' Necklace and Earrings on Display!
Outdoor seating perfect for gabbing with girlfriends over coffee.
There is even more to see and taste, so come on down and meet Carol, the shop's owner and curator who is lovely and beyond friendly! Order a coffee and peruse the store at your leisure, maybe even snap a few photos. I can't imagine a better way to unwind after a long day of work...
...except for adding a turtle cupcake to your order. It might make it a smidge better...just a smidge.

Wondering where you can purchase this season's fall collection? Well, look no further lovelies. Dusk & Rubies is now being sold at Queens City Cupcakes in Patchogue. See something you like below, come down to the store for your one of a kind piece!
See how we styled some pieces from the "How Country Feels" Collection below:
"Country-up" one of your summer dresses by:
-Pairing it with your best cowboy boots,
-Adding a thin hoodie for an instant layered look,
-And finally, an on trend denim piece over the hoodie.
You will not only be ready for fall, but also the most stylish girl at the rodeo. Maybe even TSwift will cast you in one of her music videos about one of her latest breakups; they seem to be never-ending...and catchy.
Every year as summer comes to a close my schedule instantly picks up! Yesterday I had so much fun at work, because I started shooting the Dusk & Rubies Fall Collection. Yes, you may have seen a preview on our Dusk & Rubies facebook page but if not take a gander...
I couldn't have asked for a better work day. We had country music going, a beautiful model to photograph, and a great location. Keep an eye out for when all the pictures are released!
