The Ultimate Accessories

Posted by admin

Like any Caribbean cruise ship destination, Grand Cayman has a dizzying array of jewelry stores clustered around the waterfront. The discerning customer seeking an exquisite piece of jewelry, one that will elicit “oohs” and “aahs” from all who see it, will need to travel a few miles away to Balaclava Jewellers in Governors  Square. The moment you set foot in Balaclava Jewellers, you have entered into a world-class jewelry showroom. The collection of precious jewelry has been procured from the finest houses in Switzerland, Germany and Italy.

The jewelry collection is a perfect marriage of classic and contemporary pieces. Each of the pieces is uniquely crafted with unexpected combinations of color, metals and materials. Martina and Philip Cadien are the owners of Balaclava, and their painstaking commitment to quality, sophistication, and elegance is evident everywhere. Martina and Philip both trained at the prestigious Goldsmithing school Pforzeim in Germany, and their extensive knowledge of gemstones, metals and craftsmanship is reflected in the quality of the collections.

Cutting-edge global fashion trends are on display in Balaclava. Bossy right hand rings made with blinding white pave diamonds are displayed near whisper-delicate strands of pearls. You won’t be able to resist the chunky bracelets crafted of sleek wood and rose gold, casual enough to wear with skinny jeans and a white t-shirt. This the the place to find that once-in-a-lifetime piece with incredible fancy-colored diamonds that would be noticed at any black tie event in the world.

Every visit to Balaclava behold something new to fall in love with. On a recent visit, the temptation of the day was a magnificent 18kt white gold necklace set with green amethyst and pave diamonds. It can be worn long and low, or a single strand, or doubled up for a more dramatic effect. Light and airy, this necklace can be worn with a sundress, a charcoal suit, or a strapless ballgown. Like most of the jewelry at Balaclava, this piece is a timeless classic with a fresh fashion twist.

Wander into Balaclava soon and have a look around. Try on a few sensational accessories and feel a little more beautiful, instantly . We’ll be shocked if you aren’t smitten with something fabulous!

Flirty Little Dresses

Posted by admin

Remember Madonna’s leggings in 1985’s “Desperately Seeking Susan”? Those of us old enough to remember wearing this trend in the 80’s vowed we’d never go there again. We never guessed the leggings and tunic look would resurface, but now it’s everywhere. Even in steaming tropical Cayman weather, layering leggings under dresses is a hot trend.

Finding that perfect, flirty floral dress can be a challenge. Look no further than Funky Monkey, Grand Cayman’s active and fun wear boutique. Funky Monkey has recently introduced La Class to the store.This line of fun and affordable dresses starts at just $28 CI. Dress them up, dress them down or pair them with tights. They are adorable enough to wear over a bikini for a Kaibo afternoon. Worn with a pair of leggings, strappy heels and a chunky necklace, you have an outfit worthy of the Friday night Ritz scene. The La Class line also includes cute 4-pockets shorts in white and black.

At only $28 bucks, you may want to buy more than one little dress!

Perfect Summer Purses

Summer Bags
Summer Bags

 

The first time I wandered into Funky Monkey, I nearly threw myself at the feet of the owner and wept with gratitude. Finally, a smashing active wear store right here in Grand Cayman! This chic boutique is fabulous enough for South Beach. Located in gorgeous Governors Square, Funky Monkey has an exquisite collection of work out gear, casual wear, beach cover ups, bathing suits and accessories. I have yet to visit Funky Monkey without falling in love with something I didn’t know I needed. This week the object of my affections is a groovy summer bag. Vega bags are hand crafted in Medillin, Columbia. No two are alike. The bags are the perfect size for a kicked-back island weekend.

Pop over to Funky Monkey and ask for Jodi. She’ll have your whole casual look upgraded in no time.
