Pamela has an interesting story, she comes from a medical background and prior to becoming a jewellery designer freaking genius, she was a fashion stylist in NYC. Jewellery making was more of a hobby until the day that she had to create some pieces for a photo shoot and the orders started coming and haven't stop ever since!

Carrie On!

The fab 4 are back!

Ladies.. it is time again! Sex And The City 2 has been filming on New York’s Upper East Side and Morocco! The highly-anticipated sequel starring Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon, Kristin Davis and Kim Cattrall, hits the theatres May 28, 2010. Penélope Cruz will be having a cameo role with Chris Noth and the very annoying Miley Cyrus also have a part in the movie. I can't stand Miley Cyrus. I did read somewhere that Katie Holmes was considered to play a role and that Victoria Beckham was dying to have a part in this movie..

The beautiful Sarah wore a Halston Heritage dress by Neiman Marcus , the dress is $325! The new Spring collection is launched under the Chief Creative Officer, Sarah herself. The collection is really gorgeous! It can be found online and it is also "carrie-d" :) everywhere at The Bay in Toronto. Carrie is also wearing a $1,040 pair of Christian Louboutin shoes, a Solange Azagury-Partridge gemstone necklace worth a huge $198,200, Mykita & Bernhard Wilhelm Aviator shades for $525, and a $1,500 Chanel clutch. Sophisticated, fine, and sexy! This lovely look of the day can be yours for only $201 509!












The cute pink suit that Charlotte is wearing is a Christian Dior and comes to $3880, which she wears with a $6650 Lady Dior pink Lizard handbag. All yours for $10 530!

Now a little flashback of this unforgivable fashion of the first Sex And The City. Did you know that the movie earned more than $400 million back in 2008? Here are a few facts: They had a $65,000,000 budget! H Stern loaned more than 300 pieces of jewelry to the film. According to Patricia Field, the flower ring that Smith buys for Samantha is worth approximately $50,000. The Vogue fashion shoot is the only scene in the movie that isn't fashion directed by Patricia Field. The note that is given to Carrie letting her have the wedding dress is actually written by Vivienne Westwood herself..




This was a famous outfit! Carrie Bradshaw "rocked" her signature HUGE flower accent and some rockin gladiator sandals. The next picture girly and feminine. Two green prints, the edgy black belt, some DIOR shoes and the funkiest ‘Eiffel Tower’ purse! J'ADORE!

Prints and more print! Cynthia’s bold black and white ensemble is smoking hot!!




Of course.. a major scene in the movie is Carrie’s wedding. Vivienne Westwood wedding gown topped with a green feather-festooned veil. Yes, this dress was simply stunning!! Jaw droppingly beautiful! Now the bridesmaids! Charlotte wears a Zac Posen bridesmaid’s dress in black and looks stunning! Cynthia Nixon looks like a goddess! She looks amazing and this blue made her hair stand out. Sam wears power red for her bridesmaid dress.. of course! Red is definitely her color! Good job Patricia.. I would of picked those exact same dresses! Ha Ha
