Some Real Housewives Take on Vegas

One of the most interesting things about Las Vegas is the people watching. Though I was quietly stalking Lionel Richie because I had heard faint rumors that he was attending the jewelry show with his daughter, Nicole Richie, I ended up running into a “star” of one of my guilty pleasures the Real Housewives of New York, Jill Zarin.

Jill popped into the Kwiat pavilion to admire the collection and found a FANTASTIC pair of earrings, called the Charro earrings, which she fell in love with. Big and bold, much like her personality, they perfectly accented her red mane. She promptly tweeted about her experience with the Kwiat team- Greg Kwiat and Bill Gould personally attended to her. Jill, much more adorable in person, was a breath of fresh air. Just today I stopped in to her apartment to drop off jewelry for the Gracie Awards (June 3, 2009)—I was greeted with a hug and she even kept her petite pup from biting my ankles. We found some common ground though…love of accessories!

Upon entering her phenomenal apartment, I was immediately mesmerized by a stunning set of oversized art deco mirrors – which I am now dedicated to purchasing. Jill was lovely enough to get on the phone directly to negotiate some pricing for me and put me in direct contact with the retailer. LOVE!
