Today’s Fashion Friday continues our Bergdorf Goodman Spring Fantasy Shopping Spree with close-ups of the jewelry for each outfit that we chose for spring. Fantasy in fashion would not be complete without jewels. We were lucky enough to be loaned a stunning selection by Verdura, whose tempting boutique is on the first floor at Bergdorf Goodman. These magnificent pieces took our outfits to a new level of fantasy fashion. This renowned firm has a history of splendor, a history appreciated by those in the know—including such style icons as Coco Chanel, Diana Vreeland, and scores of Hollywood legends—for decades.

The model is gorgeous, in such a refined way. The jewels complement her beauty very nicely! (You get along very well with the camera, Dr. Pat.)
The jewelry is the best icing on the cake. A fantasy in the ultimate accessorizing – simply gorgeous!!
You are so pretty I barely see the spectacular jewelry! I’ll have what you’re having, Dr. Pat.
