Today is newsletter day!!!  If you have not gotten around to sign up for the newsletter yet...and I am wondering why that is...its only for your benefit...but if you still want to resist, you can go check it out now...although you missed out on a whole slew of goodies from the Sample Sale already because those lucky newsletter subscribers were quick to snatch up discounted little pretties!

On another note...I just received a google alert about this bit-oh-press that came out today...swoon to you Ms. Fiona McCoss!

 

Well, I will share with you the cool places I have been in the past week:

It all began whenElleGirl.com dazzled with the Barbara Zsa Zsa Bling Ring in Gunmetal and Elle.com showed off the Theda Zsa Zsa Bling Ring in Gunmetal. The best part was that on both sites very nice things were said about little ole' me and Manic Trout. If you visit the site you may also enter a sweepstakes to win Bling Rings!!!

Some of the very nice things:

"Are you in the mood to break away from the pack? Can’t say we blame you, sometimes we just want something a little different from the mainstream. Meet artist and jewelry designer Sierra Bailey, who owns her own independent business selling both her hand-made jewelry and expressionist art. We happened to fall in love with her collection of funky and distinct cocktail rings, as they’re perfect for turning a plain-jane ensemble into one that really pops! "

Then the Chavi Sweetest Thing Earrings turned up in the May 2010 edition of Pregnancy & Newborn!!:

Oh wait, there's more...as if that was not all awesome enough...Manic Trout was featured in last weeks Portland Picks as #2 in the Chick Picks!!!

More nice things were said over in Portland about the Lauren Zsa Zsa Bling Rings In Silver...

Our accessory obsession knows no bounds—we have rings for every finger—and all of our neighbors’ fingers—but we still find ourselves falling in love with new pieces.
Happily, Manic Trout has pretty little baubles for next to nothing, so we can load up on fun costume jewelry without breaking the piggy bank open. This “Lauren” Zsa Zsa Bling Ring is our new favorite—the color, the casual setting, the price—it’s all so right!

Whew, what a week...thank you all for the shout outs!

 

In all the excitement of Halloween, I forgot to share that I had a ring in Life & Stye Magazine this week, Yay!

 

Last Summer I went to the Time Out NY offices to be photographed and interviewed while making a Button Ring for their How To column.  It was fun to be interviewed in person, when so often its through email or on the phone these days, and I had a great time goofing around with Rachel and Roxana during the shoot.  I also realized that you should NEVER walk around Manhattan all day in the summer months and then be photographed for a magazine without putting some effort into how you look...but thats for an entirely different post!

The point of this post is that I discovered a great secret for product photography that day, which I promptly forgot about until about 14 months later...but I did finally remember, ordered some last week and its AWESOME!!

The secret is...wait for it...White Plexiglass.  Magic.  I now use a light tent, fabric background, 4 lights, a tripod digital camera, manequin and now a piece of plexiglass...but the amount of time I have to spend in photoshop keeps growing smaller!STE082Side

 

Check out the Helene Zsa Zsa Bling Ring(available in Gold and Silver) in the October issue of Pregnancy & Newborn Magazine!!!

 

I had a heads up that the Hot Stuff Necklace would be worn by Vanessa on Gossip Girl last night, but I was not prepared for the opening scene to include Vanessa wearing the Kala Treasure Island Earrings, which she sported for the first half of the show and looked fantastic in!
