TWEETY FINE JEWELRY

Summer Play Time

Working during beautiful summer days can be o’ so frustrating.  Your boss thinks you are concentrating really hard on that document – the two page paper you have been reading for over an hour – but really you are stuck in a day dream of you on the beach, Tweety chirping in the sky above, cold beer in hand, or shopping for that piece of Tweety Fine Jewelry you eyed recently at your local jewelry store.  Since your days of childhood summers, with time to do nothing but play, are long gone here is little game to bring you back to your childhood of yesteryear.  Plus since you will be playing this game on the computer, you will be perfectly masked under faux work.  Enjoy and remember, just because you didn’t end up finding Neverland, doesn’t mean you have to give up on the child within.  Tweety recommends getting some ice cream on the way home from work today!

Play the Game!

Is a chirp or a bark more distracting at work?

Did you know that today was officially  take your dog to work day?  This is obviously the 2008 version of take your daughter/son to work day.  If the original thought was to take your child to work so that you can have a happier workday with your loved ones close by (doubtful) then take your dog to work is a reasonable “holiday.”  However, if take your child to work was meant to give children a glimpse of what Mommy/Daddy does all day (more probable) than how can you justify taking your dog to work?  I will lean towards my first guess at this holiday and follow suit by bringing Tweety to work with me in the hope that my bright little birdie will bring cheer to my day.  Since I do not want to steal the spotlight of all the dogs celebrating today, I will celebrate take your Tweety to work tomorrow.  Oh, and the easiest way to bring Tweety to work is to grab your favorite piece of Tweety Fine Jewelry, and wear it in to the office. 

A break from reruns...

Finash brings us this great oldie of our favorite yellow feathered friend on a you-tune-esque website called Daily Motion. With summer here, and all your favorite shows running repeats, this cute little video serves as a dose of entertainment freshness.  And, if you think Tweety looks great on the silver screen, than you should see the little birdie in diamonds…Enjoy!

Summer Cocktail Weekend Sendoff

TGIF and TGIS!  (Thank god it’s summer!)  Tomorrow marks the first official day of summer.  (Although, here at Tweety head quarters in NYC we have already been served a healthy dose of heavy summer heat.) So throw your favorite cocktail over ice, and take it outside this weekend to enjoy the fresh summer sun and air.  Whether you prefer an unidentifiable frozen concoction or just a good ole’ beer, both will pair perfectly with the breeze of the great outdoors. 

 

Stay hydrated in the heat to avoid making delirious comments like, “I thawt I thaw a putty tat…I did!...I did!”  Have a great weekend, and happy summer solstice!

Nests for Less

June 18th. What does that mean to you? The 169th day of the Year? The 123rd anniversary of Waterloo? For many New Yorkers, it’s a big day, one they've been looking forward to for a long long time. It's the Ikea grand opening in Red Hook Brooklyn. For too long, New Yorker's have had to trek out of their cherished 5 boroughs for stylish yet inexpensive home goods to feather their nests. But no more!

Some of Tweety's favorite offering from this Swedish shore are this side table (above) and this right hand chaise (below). These yellow pieces really help brighten even the gloomiest of corners.

While the excitement may seem a bit silly, it's really very important. As Tweety knows, how one lives affects their state of mind. Having a stylish abode aids in creativity, generosity, and a sense of well-being. As a supporter of all things swanky, snazzy, and smart, Tweety is a big fan of Ikea.

Father's Day Weekend Cocktail Sendoff

We here at Tweety Fine Jewelry head quarters tend to think of dear old Tweety as a parental figure from time to time.  After all, our dear Tweety is always offering sage advice and guidance about what all the hot chicks in fashion are wearing, what cocktails to drink over the weekend, and anything else that may fall out of the sky.  Therefore, on most weekends we dedicate cocktail hour to our yellow-feathered leader.  However, on this special weekend we raise our proverbial (and actual) glass to our own father’s, and we wish all dads out there a Happy Father’s Day!

Since Father’s day festivities tend to revolve around the three B’s, (barbeque, beer, and best gifts from best family), we recommend throwing back a few cold ones from dad’s favorite brewery, or mixing up your father’s favorite cocktail.  Oh, and if you don’t know what your father’s favorite beer or cocktail is then you should just lower your head in shame.  And you call yourself the favorite child…!

(Siobhan Crosby has the right idea!)

Little Yellow Dress

Wearing brightly colored clothing can be a challenge, especially in New York where everyone favors black so much. So it was with great delight that Tweety spotted a classy celebrity showing everyone how to wear Tweety's signature color.

The tabloids read over the Weekend "Liz Hurley upstages the bride AGAIN as she steps out in a canary yellow dress." The 42-year-old actress, model, and businesswoman looked spectacular in a wide-brimmed white hat and adorable yellow dress with ruffled collar. Hurley wore this outfit to a friend's English society wedding, and she clearly took the spotlight.

This all points to something that Tweety has been saying for a long time now, that it's possible to make a big splash in yellow without being ostentatious. While her dress color choice drew attention to herself, it was in the most flattering of ways. The London Mail called her "stunning." Tweety applauds.

 

A ride for your money

The first heat wave of the season is sweeping Tweety's fair city of New York. It's hot hot hot, as are the memories of Vegas. Last week, Tweety attended one of the hottest and big-hearted events in Vegas: Jewelers for Children Charity Fundraiser Dinner. Of course, Tweety was decked out in Tweety Fine Jewelry by D'Annunzio and received many compliments from those in attendance.

But Tweety wasn't just there to scoop up the compliments. Tweety was also there to give back by donating the Tweety VW Bug to Jewelers for Children. This very unique VW Bug came fully loaded with everything Tweety. Its bight yellow exterior was only one-half of the package, since the inside was also completely customized by Tweety (complete with daisy floor mats!). Imagine, in the middle of a gorgeous ballroom in the Venetian Hotel, the ultimate Tweety lover's delight. In the end, Tweety's fly ride raised over 60 thousand dollars for this deserving charity. And that looked good to Tweety.

Tweety Fine Jewelry

We would all love to own a personal collection of Tweet Fine Jewelry.  Hey...forget the collection, even just one piece would be pretty cool. This got me wondering.  If Tweety Fine Jewelry is so special, than what is the next best thing?  Then it hit me!  Owning a VW bug inspired by the lovely line of jewelry in question.  And our sources tell us that not only does such an intriguing car exist, but it is going to be auctioned off during the Jeweler for Children's annual dinner ceremony at the JCK jewelry trade show in Las Vegas.  Twwety is not only a lover of the finer things in life, but Tweety also believes in giving back to those in need.  Therefore, the entire proceeds of the auctioned off car will be donated to Jeweler's for Children, which helps children in need all over the world.  While one person may win the decked out Tweety bug, so many children will win as well. 

The Lychee Martini

We bring you a more unusual weekend cocktail sendoff this week per the specific request of our lovely yellow feathered leader Tweety.  Tweety had a specific craving for a perfect lychee martini.  Sweet and strong, Tweety has always been a lover of the rare but delicious cocktail.  Of course, there is only one place to get a perfect lychee martini, and that is at the famous Tao restaurant located in the Venetian hotel in Las Vegas.  (Tweety could pay a visit to the NYC Toa location, but lets face it - it just doesn’t taste as good when you can’t follow up that first sip with a sigh of “Vegas baby!”) Luckily for Tweety, this craving can be filled next week when our beloved birdie flies down to Vegas (first class wing seat) for the annual JCK jewelry trade show.  Even more luckily for Tweety, the trade show is housed in the Venetian Hotel where Tweety has arranged top rate hotel accommodations, and a reservation at the restaurant in mention.  Since this craving fulfillment doesn't happen until next week, Tweety decided to take a crack at a more homemade version of the drinkable treat this week.  Hey, worse comes to worse, it is so bad, that the real thing will taste even better next week.  We found this promising recipe based on another fellow lychee martini fanatic who did some research in order to find the perfect at home recipe.  Enjoy!
