Exciting News ! Jay Strongwater, the masterful creator of "Jewels for the Home" will be in Naples tomorrow, at Gattle's in Old Naples. Jay launched his career in his twenties, while a student at the Rhode Island School of Design. He was then discovered by the fashion designer Oscar de la Renta, who hired him for runway jewelry...and the rest is history. One of my favorite clients in Naples owns some of Jay's pieces, and I always admire them. Neiman Marcus in Bal Harbour also has a large selection, as well as Gattle's here in Naples. His works are owned by celebs such as Sir Elton John, Halle Berry, Cate Blanchett, and Oprah . If you go, he'll be there from 11 to 4, and you can also stop at Bay Design and see the amazing work of Judith Auclair.... I so enjoyed viewing "A Single Man" last night at the new SilverSpot Cinema in the Mercato. Colin Firth and Julianne Moore took my breath away ! Tom Ford has created a modern masterpiece, based on the Christopher Isherwood manuscript. DF *****
