it's been a while.
















Well, time has really flown by. I can't believe a month has gone by and still no post.

Well, i'm back and it's time to update y'all on what's been happening around Kimberly Baker Jewelry.

Now that November has crept up on us and Seattle is getting colder by the day, you know what that means. The holidays are coming. It's time to make your KBJ wishlist and pass that along to your honey. And, as always, the holidays mean holiday hours. Starting the week of Thanksgiving, we will be open till 7 on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. And of course, if you have a Kimberly Baker emergency, you can always call to make an appointment with us.

If you haven't already, you need to check out the CW's Gossip Girl. I know, I know. I've probably overextended the amount of time I'm allowed to gush about this show but, whatever. It's good and it's a Kimberly Baker explosion. I counted about 6 pieces in last week's episode. What? Yes! I love it. Can't get enough! So, please. Do yourself a huge favor and stay in on Wednesday nights and check out Gossip Girl. It's on right after America's Next Top Model on Wednesdays. Watch it. You won't regret it. I promise this.

We launched some new ads in the Stranger a few weeks ago that will run until the end of the year. It features pictures from our Lookbooks.

So, what are you waiting for? Make plans to hang out in Fremont. It's cold out there but i've got the heat cranked and start your holiday shopping right.

Gossip Girl, yesss.

Oh, Gossip Girl, how i love thee. It's as if the television gods listened to my prayers and granted me with this impossibly good television show. And on top of it being one of my very favorite things to do on a Wednesday night, they love our jewelry too.

So, as of right now, they've featured us twice. Here's a screen cap from Episode 2, the Wild Brunch, where Serena is seen sporting the Ziggy bracelet. On their website, they have links to all of the stuff that the cast is wearing. I think that's so brilliant. I can't think of how many times I've wanted to buy the stuff people were wearing on shows and could not figure out how. Genius!




















In the episode that aired last night, I literally jumped off of my couch and yelled the name of the necklace, "KELLY!" My neighbors probably think i'm nuts. Blair, who is fantastically bitchy, was wearing the Kelly necklace in Gold. I feel like I'm some sort of stage mom with this stuff. I'm just so darn proud that the jewelry looks as great as it does. I'm a total Kimberly Baker nerd.

i'm not crying, it's just been raining on my face....

Sigh, Well it's another gloriously rainy day in Seattle. Perfect time to get a blog in. Things have been pretty crazy around here at Kimberly Baker Jewelry. Kim just jetted off for a much needed 2-week vacation in Italy. (I know, I know..her life really sucks) I'm holding down the fort and it's pretty lonely without her. We just launched our new collection that is now available on our website. Those of you who have kept up with the blog would have already gotten a glimpse of it, but now you can purchase it and see them with professional photographs and not just my amateur try at it. We also have some new earrings that I never got around to putting up on the blog as well. If you're a fan of our previous laser cut earrings (i.e. Lexi, Lidia, Heidi) you'll love these. They're at a really affordable price and they're super amazing.

We were also featured in this month's Seattle Metropolitan Magazine. I have to admit that I'm not one to take too fondly to the fashion in Seattle, but this spread is pretty good. I didn't think I'd ever see a day when there was such a well-styled layout. Kudos to the stylists and Seattle Metropolitan for such an amazing job.



The model on the left is wearing the Phoenix Rising earrings in Gold ($198) and the Maude ($165) and Crown Heart Ring ($240) both in Gold. The model on the right is rocking the Maude in Gold($165) and the Wolfette in Silver ($198) rings.


In other amazingly wonderful news, If you haven't already caught the newest and greatest show, Gossip Girls, get on it! Not only is it a taste of some amazingly juicy teen drama (which i personally, can't get enough of), the ladies on that show are rocking some serious Kimberly Baker Jewelry. Keep an eye out for our stuff. It's on there. Wednesdays 9:00 on the CW.

umbrella ella ella ey.

Whew. Well the summer has officially ended up here in Seattle. The rain has returned and we're back to it. I can't really say that i mind, though. There's something oddly comforting about the rain in Seattle.

Well, let's get to it. We have been shown some serious love this month from some serious magazines.

The October Issue of Lucky (which is on stands now) featured our Keiko ring in Gold for a "my foolproof outfit" piece. The ring is also featured as a Lucky Breaks discount piece for the month of October as well. You'll have to pick up the issue to get that secret code, though.
















The October Issue of SELF showed us some love this time around too. This time they jet-setted our jewelry off to Ireland for a romantic photoshoot with an amazing background. The featured pieces in these two pictures are the Crown Heart ring in 18kt Gold Vermeil and the Crown Heart Necklace (worn as a bracelet) in 18kt Gold Vermeil.















We're also featured in the newest edition of INStyle Makeover with Ali Larter on the cover. It's been a busy summer over here at Kimberly Baker Jewelry. Can't wait for the fall!
