Tiffany Chou and DeLatori featured in Hamptons Magazine

Tennis Star Maria Sharapova is known for scoring on the courts, but we have to say we think her chic spread in Hamptons Magazine is also a true winner! In an easy, breezy yellow (tennis ball inspired perhaps?) dress, Tiffany Chou “Starfish” earrings and an elegant DeLatori bangle, Sharapova looks effortlessly fresh in her Summer look.

Donald Huber in JCK Magazine

In "The Look" section of the July/August issue of JCK Magazine, the stand-out piece of the spread (and the one we are in LOVE with here at LBG) is Donald Huber's striking Tassle necklace featuring Onyx Beads, Tahitian Pearl, Gold South Seas Pearl and Diamonds. Bold, black jewelry has certainly been a jewelry trend we've had our eyes on here at LBG and this Tassle necklace is truly a show-stopper. Have you seen all of Donald Huber's jewelry? Make sure you Like this stunning jewelry line on Facebook for sneak peeks at their fabulous latest designs! Congrats to the team at Donald Huber on this awesome placement! 

CHARRIOL, Daniel Gibbing’s/Zultanite Gems and Erica Courtney featured in VIV Magazine!

  

“Defiance” actress Julie Benz wore a plethora of LBG’s clients jewelry in the latest issue of VIV Magazine. Her Erica Courtney jewels included Platinum and Diamond hoop earrings and 18k Gold hoops with Diamond and Yellow Beryl drops. She topped off her look with an elegant CHARRIOL bangle and Daniel Gibbings’ coveted “Cats Eye” Zultanite ring. Check out the images of Julie rocking all of this chic jewelry!

Donald Huber and Christian Tse/Zultanite featured in Grace Ormonde Wedding Style

Grace Ormonde Wedding Style has become the go-to bible (a heavy bible at that!) for brides-to-be and wedding enthusiasts, alike. We were thrilled to see that the magazine featured Christian Tse’s Zultanite timepiece (see it on Nick Cannon here and American Idol’s Joshua Ledet here) and Donald Huber’s White Jade, Tahitian Pearl, and Diamond Earrings in their Fall/Winter 2012 issue! Both pieces are just incredible!

Supreme Jewelry on JCK Online

We love the look of layered jewelry, and Supreme’s gorgeous “Chain” necklace is perfectly jaw-dropping on it’s own, but paired with other necklaces and pendants, as was done in JCK online, the look is even more stunning! Supreme Jewelry has a ton of new pieces they plan on debuting in the next few weeks, be sure to follow them on Facebook for all the updates. Congrats Supreme!

LBG’s Lia Alessandra featured in PR Couture!

Here at Luxury Brand Group, we get extremely excited about bringing on PR interns and helping them become immersed and familiar with the PR/Marketing world. About a year ago, we brought on Lia Alessandra, a student who’s willingness to dive right in was only matched by her love of fashion (check out her adorable blog by clicking here). Lia took the time to chat with PR Couture about her internship here at LBG – and we think you’ll see why Lia has earned a more permanent role here with her hard work and lovely attitude! Congrats on the feature, Lia!
