SAVE THE DATE!

Okay, the weather's been about as indecisive and wishy washy as your last boyfriend. Labor Day is looming and the end of summer is soon approaching. Things may look bleak but take heart, my lovelies.

Why? You ask. Well, Kimberly Baker Jewelry is celebrating its 2 year birthday in our Fremont location very, very soon. We'll be officially launching our newest collection and celebrating our big 0-2! In honor of that special day, we will be having a little shindig at our Flagship store.

So, Here's what you have to look forward to:

1. Party - duh! Who doesn't like parties?
2. New Collection - HOT!
3. 10% of all proceeds that day will go to NOAH, a really important organization based in Stanwood, WA that helps our furry friends.
4.Yummies and treats catered by Lovin from the Oven.
5. Fancy Cocktails

When? You ask.

Saturday, September 6 5-8

See? What did I tell you? Things are starting to look up already!

Sale weekend!

FYI.

The Sale continues through the weekend. We still have a table of goodies that are priced as marked and the rest of the store is all 10% OFF.

If you've had your eye on something, now's the time to check it out. Also, come and see what Kim's been working on for the past few months.

Hours:

Fremont First Friday Sidewalk Sale.

Tomorrow's Friday, August 1, which means it's Fremont First Friday. It's the neighborhood's art walk, but tomorrow will also be an evening for shopping. From 3-8, most of the stores in the hood are participating and having a sidewalk sale. Not to be outdone by the Ballard folks from last week, we thought we'd get in on the action as well.

We'll have plenty of good offerings at great prices. We won't be perched on the sidewalk but come inside and check out the table devoted solely to discontinued items and samples. We'll also be offering 10% off everything else in the store, which includes some hot new pieces.

So, come by and check it out. The loot that everyone will have out is well worth the trip.

welcome to the club, guys.

We're getting set to launch a new collection here at KBJ and I thought now would be an appropriate time to post some pictures of the pieces. These will go live on the website in due time but here's some professional and some not so professional shots of some our newest babies. I've also added some pieces that we only offer in the store. We only offer some in very limited quantities, so not only are they gorgeous, but you'll probably be one of the only lucky ladies to ever get to rock them. Scroll down to peep these gems. The pheasant was kind enough to let me shoot him with some on.

See below. It's about to get real. This is just the beginning, people.

I know, I know, you can close your jaw now. Kim's done it again! Here's the rundown:

Chief Joseph Ring: Sterling Silver, offered in sizes 6, 7, and 8. $240 (my new favorite ring is swiftly becoming the new middle finger staple. My wolfette's starting to feel a little left out)

Feather Cuff: Sterling Silver, $625, this bracelet has to be seen in person. It's really beautiful.

Arrow Locket: Sterling Silver, $170, this is the first locket Kim has ever done. What you can't see is the adorable little horseshoe on the clasp that makes for the perfect little accent on the necklace.

Sting Ray Cuff: Sterling Silver and 18kt Gold Vermeil, $725 (As a side note, this cuff is just the start of something great. We have a sting ray necklace, earrings, and another incredibly sick ring coming out as well. Trust me on this one, you should start saving your money now....)

Ribbon Cuff: Sterling Silver, $345

Shield Earrings: Sterling Silver, $55




Leaf Bracelet: 18kt Gold Vermeil, $450
If you're a Kimberly Baker junkie, you will probably recognize this piece. It's a bracelet that we carried long ago and have since taken it out of the line. It's been brought back in gold and we think it's better than ever!

Tri-Color Chain Necklace: SS, 18kt GV, & OX-SS, $400
Make Mr. T proud with this beast.

SALE: Lauren Wolf Baby Goddess Pendant Necklace, Sterling Silver, was $296, now $148
During the holidays, we carried some pieces from Brooklyn designer, Lauren Wolf. This is the last remnant from that collection. It's a really cool piece that measures 18" long. To see more of her work, check out her website, www.laurenwolfjewelry.com.

summer summertime.

Okay...

Let's get to it. After weeks of some trouble with our new scanner, I've finally mastered the art of scanning some new press. We've been pretty popular recently and here's some shots to show you.

We were recently featured in the May issue of NYLON Magazine as part of a Gossip Girl spread. In case you've been living in a cave, GG is the newest teen soap that just recently finished its first season on the CW. We were lucky enough to have our pieces so beautifully featured on the show and they chose our stuff to style this shoot as well:


Here's a rundown of the jewelry on the ladies in these shots. First picture: Blake aka Serena is wearing the Anais Necklace in 18kt GV. Second picture: Blake has on the Maude ring in 18kt GV, aka her "signature S ring." Third Picture: Leighton aka Blair is wearing the Dolly Necklace in Sterling Silver. Final Picture: Blake is wearing the Wolfette in 18kt GV.

We were also featured in the May issue of CosmoGIRL with actress, Brittany Snow on the cover.

First Picture: Brittany is wearing the Maude Ring in Sterling Silver. Second Picture: Victoria Bracelet in Sterling Silver, Keiko Ring in Sterling Silver, and the Maude Ring again. Final Picture: Sienna Necklace, Bun-Bun Necklace in Sterling Silver, and Lizzy Bracelet in Sterling Silver.

And, finally, here's a shot from USWeekly with Michelle Trachtenburg, who plays the evil Georgina on GG, hanging out in NYC with her Wolfette.

There you have it. You're officially, well almost, completely caught up on our press. Whew. We are also on the cover of NYLON this month with Scarlett Johannsen on the cover. Peep the Rose Ruby ring she's wearing. As soon as I get my hands on it, I'll have it up too.

Have a good rest of your weekend, friends. If you live in Seattle, pray for some sun. Happy Father's Day!
