Flouncy, Flouncy!

We've done it again! One of our newer pieces has been featured in this month's InStyle Magazine. It's their giant fall issue with Gwen Stefani on the cover. We're featured in the Fab Finds for under $100 section. Now, doesn't that just validate your desire for a new Kimberly Baker treasure? We're not only totally on the cusp of fashion, but we're affordable! What girl could ask for anything more?
Click on the photo for a closer look. The earrings featured are the Heidi Peacock Feathers in Sterling Silver. They're sassy and a steal at $65.00!

Also on the horizon for us is another trunk show! This one will be happening in our hometown of Seattle. Design within Reach (an amazing design store for those of you not in the know) will be hosting a trunk show in honor of the talented Miss Kimberly Baker on August 30. Click on this for details.

Well, that's it for today. I'll be posting pictures of our new earrings and necklaces next week!

you've got the BEST of my love...













Oh man! It's been a really awesome week here at Kimberly Baker Jewelry. The Seattle Weekly's Best of Seattle issue hit the stands on Wednesday and we were bestowed with the honor of being Seattle's Best Local Indie Jewelry Designer. Yippee! Below is a scan of the article with a nice interview with Kim. If you haven't already, pick up the issue. Not only are we featured in it, but it's jam packed with other goodies from our area. Also, if you're not a Seattle resident, you can check it out on their website.

Kim also just returned from her jaunt to Portland for Le Train Bleu's trunk show. She reported back that it was a great success and loads of fun! I wish I was there to document the whole fete but alas..we can only imagine how much fun was had by all. Kim's away again this week checking out the scene at Market (a super important trade show), doing some much-needed shopping (so jealous!), and surviving in some serious sweltering weather (so not jealous!) I can just imagine Kim right now waltzing around the Lower East Side decked out with all of her jewels and being spotted by all the important people! Can't wait to get a full report.

And in other super fabulous news, it looks as if Kimberly Baker's Jewelry will be making a few guest appearances on a new fall show sure to be the best thing ever! Rumor has it that our jewelry will be adorned by a certain fabulous new starlet on a show that I, personally, can't wait for! More details to come...


OOOOH! And finally, we have some new pieces that I will post pictures and prices of later today. If you loved the lazercut earrings i.e. Lidia, Lexi, and Heidi, you will love these new little guys!

Woot! I'm out.

I think this is the best costume for today.

It's that time again. Our weekly post. In case you haven't been paying attention, we've made it our business to leave a little sumthin' sumthin' for all of you fabulous blog readers every Sunday.

Well, let's see. This week we were featured on the website, http://www.nwsource.com. Kim was interviewed and there's a little photo of Sally Seahorse on there too. The write-up focuses mainly on our nautical theme which is pretty rich throughout the line.

Kim was also photographed and interviewed for the upcoming Best of Seattle edition of Seattle Weekly. I'll post all that goodness up when it arrives.




On another note, I watched the Edie Sedgwick masterpiece, Ciao! Manhattan last night. I consider myself a bit of a 60's fanatic and it finally arrived via Netflix. Oh my goodness. One of the most interesting films I've ever seen. The plot is kind of hard to follow and some of the characters are so completely wacked-out and bizarre, and Edie spends about 95% of the movie topless. It's such a cool glimpse into the 60's and the world of the factory. She was pretty rad and albeit tragic.

Some kind of wonderful.

So, we're on the last day of our sale and unfortunately, the Seattle weather is just not as cooperative as we would hope. It's been raining all day and it when it's not raining, it's muggy. Not the most condusive weather for shopping.

However, things are looking up. The rain has lifted and we can see more people coming out to play.

So, i've decided to post a couple of pictures lifted from Face Hunter and The Sartorialist. We're just so in love with these looks and we deemed it appropriate to post some of them. We would really love to add a few Kimberly Baker pieces to these kids as well.





Adorable. Perhaps she could add the Ziggy Bracelet or better yet, the Wolfette Ring in Silver.











All I ever want to do is walk around dressed like a little girl straight out of a Walter Keane painting. Big eyes, short dress, and adorable footwear. Let's see...she needs the gold and silver Keiko rings stacked on one finger and the Bunny Charm Necklace in Gold.








Okay. So, I just put this one up because I cannot believe how adorable this guy looks. I really wish boys in America would feel secure enough to rock a little girl's top. So beyond cute. And I'm guessing that this guy would probably shop at Kimberly Baker as well. You gotta love a secure man. I know I do.

If you love us and you live in Portland, raise your hand!
