Coach x Tony Duquette
January 25, 2012After a (somewhat) long absence, I'm back! Last week was extremely cold in Edmonton.. with windchill, temperatures dipped down to -45 degrees celcius. I tried to convert that into Fahrenheit with those unit converters on the internet - all of them failed me! So I took the liberty of doing calculations by hand and figured it out for my American readers. -45 Celcius = -49 Fahrenheit. SO. COLD. Stepping outside of my house was a nightmare.
Anyway. If you haven't heard about this collaboration already, I want to share it with you today! For those of you who have been following my blog for a while now, it shouldn't be a surprise to you that I love the American brand, Coach. This month, Coach has collaborated with the team at Tony Duquette to design a line of fashion jewelry and accessories.
During his time, Tony Duquette was a world renowned artist and designer. He designed costumes and sets for movies, winning him awards, and even designed jewelry for royalty during his career. He has had numerous exhibits at museums around the world and is well respected in the world of art and design.
When I first laid eyes on the preview pictures of the collection, there were a few pieces I coveted. But over the past week.. I have found myself to love more, and more, and more. Here's the pieces I love.
And of course, I've been trying to stick to my new years resolution of budgeting and spending less.. but I've been bad this month. I'll try again in February.. haha
By the way, I'm now on Instagram! Find me! I'd love to see your pictures :)

ReplyDeleteoh gosh! -45 degrees!! Thats killer. I'm over by Toronto, and we have barely hit -20 degrees. I am loving the mild winter this year, but I feel your pain!
ReplyDeleteBtw, love love the pieces. The first 2 necklaces caught my eye. Simple, could basically be worn as an everyday piece but yet so chic! I am going to have to go check out my local coach store!

ReplyDeleteWhen will you post what you bought? I love the collection myself. I bought the Spike necklace and bracelet to match. They are stunning when wore together. Also, I bought a few other pieces that are just as stunning as the spike collection.
ReplyDeleteIt's such an amazing collection, right? Unfortunately I didn't pick up the spike pieces.. I've written up my post and it will be published tomorrow morning. Which other pieces did you get? :)
DeleteAlso, I bought the charm bracelet watch, malachite cocktail ring, the fish clutch, the teal thicker hinged bracelet and the thinner coral bracelet.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I forget to mention I purchased the Mermaid necklace.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for stopping by! I would love to hear anything you have to say.
