TIFF 2010 – Lia Sophia

TIFF 2010 - Lia Sophia

The lounge that most surprised me was Lia Sophia. I knew it was a jewellery line but I didn’t expect to fall in love with it. On display was the newest red carpet collection called La Belle Rose. The collection used materials like silver, gold, copper, black diamond crystal, clear crystal,  jet crystal,  Hematite, Tortoise resin, jet enamel and lapis resin.

The most interesting thing about Lia Sophia is that the collection isn’t sold in stores, it’s a direct selling company. It’s much like Avon where you buy items from a Lia Sophia Hostess at a jewellery party or from an Advisor in your area. Lia Sophia jewellery also comes with a Lifetime Replacement Guarantee which could come in handy if you ever lose a stone.

The gift bag for this lounge was a choice of jewellery from the collection. It was a hard decision but I was attracted to the steampunk looking Runway style of the collection which featured Black Diamond Crystals in Matte Silver and Matte Gold or Clear Crystals in Matte Silver and Matte Copper.

Runway Rings with Crystals

I left with a huge cocktail ring and 3 bracelets (two thin and one wide) in the Black Diamond Crystals in Matte Silver and Matte Gold finish. I’m kicking myself now for not picking up a matching necklace. They are statement pieces. I’ve had nothing but compliments and someone always notices I’m wearing them.
