Gucci Rules

Filed in archive Designer Jewelry on January 26, 2010

When I was twelve, my proudest purchase was a Gucci watch. It was a knock-off, and I doubt a very good one. At that age, growing up in the Midwest, I didn't know what a knock-off was - all I knew was that it looked like the real thing and I loved it.

I have since harbored a passionate, zealous and bizarre love for anything Gucci. I once owned one of their belts. But let's face it - I'm not hiding some huge collection of Gucci in my closet. I am not thin enough to fit into their clothes, and their prices aren't friendly to my pocketbook.

But now they have this amazing jewelry. And they even have an affordable (for them) line in silver. I loathe silver - I hate cleaning it, I hate the way it tarnishes - but for Gucci… need I say it?

Check out this fantastic ring from their horsebit collection. Or this fabulous bracelet. Or this super-cool ring in silver. The brand may be as old as the hills, but their designs are shiny and new.

That's a far cry from a knock-off!
