A Girl's Best Friend

Do you like to ogle jewelry you may never be able to afford? Good, me too. Van Cleef and Arpels, the legendary Parisian jeweler, responsible for the easily recognizable clover motif, is having an exhibition at NYC’s Cooper Hewitt Museum starting February 18^th going though June 5^th. Just in time to take your Valentine’s date and show him what he could have bought you. Van Cleef and Arpels has been a jewelry landmark in NYC since WWII. The exhibition will show over 250 pieces with themes of innovation, nature as inspiration, exoticism, and fashion and celebrity. Famous ladies including Grace Kelly and Elizabeth Taylor loved the brand. Imagine yourself floating around New York in furs and diamonds. Oh, and try not to drool on the glass.
