Trend Alert with Hope Henderson: Bright Eyes!

Check out what Hope has to say this month!  


In honor of fashion week, I wanted to talk about trends that can go from the catwalk to the sidewalk. There is color everywhere during fashion week and we are seeing alot of it on the eyes. I love colorful, vivid eye shadow that smacks you right in the face! It draws attention and makes you more confident. You can wear the trend as is by placing one main bright and bold color all over your eyelid and into the crease extending it past the eye. Wing some black liner out along with it to give it more edge or place a brighter color on the center of your eyelids for some pop. If you aren't feeling quite that daring then start simple and build up using pastels instead of vibrant shades. Use a neutral color in the crease of your eye then add the pastel color on your eyelid. 


The bottom line it: Don't be afraid of color! If there is a color you love to wear in clothing, chances are you will like it on your eyes.

Choosing an Engagement Ring with RFS

Choosing an engagement ring is not an activity you can practice to master and end up with the perfect ring.    For the majority of us, it is a once in a lifetime opportunity.  You have one shot to get it right.  Stressed yet?   Where do you start?  Google? Then what, follow us on Facebook or Twitter? (which you should)  STRESSFUL!

For those of you that (unfortunately) choose to remain anonymous this post will give you some insight into how we do, what we do, and an idea of the options available to you.

First, we will tell you about us.  RFS started in Brooklyn with only about 20 customizable options for conflict-free diamonds and recycled metals.  We've made it all the way to Midtown Miami and now offer 150 customizable engagement rings.  Conflict-free means the diamonds have not funded any wars or spurred any human rights violations.  Using recycled metals helps reduce the effects mining has on our planet.

We will then walk you through choosing a ring from our 150 customizable options and choosing a center stone by teaching you the 4 Cs (carat weight, color, clarity, and cut).   You will then choose the metal; palladium, platinum, white gold, yellow gold, and pink gold.

The 4 C's:

Feel better yet?  After we have showed you every option and taught you how to figure out what is best for you, we will help you create the perfect ring.  Now that your prepped, come see us!

Next up.... the proposal, but that's all you! :)
