Shivan’s Holiday Host Picks: Jewelry, Fashion & More!

Once a year and “once upon a time” come together for my Holiday Host Pick show this year! Carol Brodie is coming in for an hour of Rarities with me at noon ET on Friday, Oct 21st.   We had a conversation the other day about what she has been up to since the last Holiday Host Pick event…it has been a busy year for all of us!

This is where the “once upon a time” comes into play. Carol is making women’s dreams come true with her luxurious line of genuine gemstones. She has been crossing the globe searching for gemstones and innovative ways to set them. From Pink Opal and Blue Lapis to Tourmaline and Sapphires, she has been sourcing stone and creating spectacular designs for her customers to achieve their gemstone jewelry dreams. “Jewelry to live in and live for.” So Carol! So Rarities!
Carol has such talent, taste and stories! She finds the gems and then sets them in a way that makes the ring or bracelet modern and beyond classic at the same time. These bangles are a perfect example. The Black Rhodium really sets the SET OF THREE apart from the rest.

There is nothing more she loves to do than bring the genuine article to you. Her collections are as diverse as the women who wear them. The signature style is yours to write, simply by how you wear the jewelry. Carol is a girlfriend “in the business”. I begged her to bring back a few favorites that she swore she would never repeat, and bless her heart, she did it! She also found Pink Opal! It is my top pick for the block and will make your skin tone look gorgeous! Genuine Pink Opal in a waterfall style – and a bracelet to pick up too! What is there not to love?! Happy October, birthstone girls. 143-010

Here is a recent photo with Carol and some of her jewelry girlfriends – trading stories! There is nothing she loves doing more than talking about jewelry! That is exactly what we are going to do for a jammed-packed, fun-filled Holiday Host Pick!

For the rest of my Holiday Host Pick show, I want to let you know…Diane Gilman has also been busy. The fabulous fashion designer is bringing her Velvet Bootcut Jeans –my favorite! you’ll have six different color options in this classic 5-pocket bootbut style. Plus… it will be Today’s Special for the day.

I also have to explain how to redo your cabinets and furniture with a product made by an incredible woman who is an entrepreneur and artist. The product is called RECLAIM by Caromal Colours and it is the reason I now love my built in the 1970’s kitchen. You will love her and how this miracle product will be an entire makeover for your kitchen.  There is more on that on my Facebook Fan Page where you can see before and after photos of my cabinets. If it isn’t a problem for you, trust me you know someone who it is a problem for – spread the word! It may be random in a show that has fine jewelry and fab fashions, but it is one of those products that I am so happy to tell the world about because it fixed such a huge issue for me. I want you to know about it!

Happy Holidays and Happy Shopping! See you on the 21st…

Rock on!
