I just discovered an amazing store in Dallas (it took a friend in New York to tell me about it, I am still not very familiar with this town but I am getting there!). It is a gorgeous boutique full of treasures from around the world that International Interior Designer Michelle Nussbaumer finds, including the gorgeous Indian old mine cut diamond and emerald necklace above. I went to a private trunk show for Indian Moghul jewelry and exotic skin handbags (what else does a girl need?) there last Friday and got the most stunning pair of earrings and super chic bracelet! Michelle keeps stock of select items she can't part with so those of you who are lucky enough to live in Dallas, run over there and tell her Jewel Snob sent you!

If you don't live here, call the store and find out what they still have- they can send you photos of more lovely items for your home, body and spirit than you can imagine. The store is going to become a serious addition for me, I can see it now.
