The sighting: Actress and director Blake Lively attended The Music Man’s recent Broadway opening in a ravishing purple ensemble. Her suit was sharp, but her two pairs of statement earrings stole the show.

The jewels: I liked this look when I thought it was one gorgeously dramatic pair of Lorraine Schwartz earrings, but as soon as I realized it was TWO pairs of earrings layered together, I was obsessed.

The first pair of earrings features large amethysts ringed with bright emeralds. Debra Messing wore a three stone version of this style for the 2012 Golden Globes and Julianne Moore wore a spectacular matching necklace on a 2013 InStyle cover. The second pair of earrings is a Schwartz signature, one of the designer’s iconic mesh styles in a pink and purple sapphire colorway.

The trends: Ear parties are nothing new, but they usually involve multiple pairs of small earrings or one major pair of earrings accentuated by smaller ones. Wearing two pairs of major statement earrings together is a departure from the norm and it’s rather thrilling.

The best thing about this styling choice is how universal it could be. Anyone can put on two pairs of statement earrings, whether or not they are on lending terms with Lorraine Schwartz. It adds a whole new dimension for styling and a fresh perspective for earring sales. Why buy one pair of statement earrings when buying two coordinating pairs together is so much cooler?

What do we think? I love this. It’s bold and fun and exuberant and immediately made me think about my own statement earrings and if any of them would pair well together.

My only hesitation is comfort, because those earrings look heavy. I have to wonder if Lively was able to keep both pairs on for the whole evening or if they ended up in Ryan Reynolds’ jacket pocket before the audience even heard that there was trouble in River City.

Judgement: 13/10 for a super cool and creative look, 6/10 for secondhand earlobe stress (because ouch, right?)

Four Decades of Excellence: How Wilkerson Transformed a Jeweler's Retirement into Celebration

After 45 years serving the Milwaukee community, Treiber & Straub Jewelers owner Michael Straub faced a significant life transition. At 75, the veteran jeweler made a personal decision many business owners understand: "I think it's time. I want to enjoy my wife with my grandchildren for the next 10, 15 years." Wilkerson's expertise transformed this major business transition into an extraordinary success. Their comprehensive approach to managing the going-out-of-business sale created unprecedented customer response—with lines forming outside the store and limits on how many shoppers could enter at once due to fire safety regulations. The results exceeded all expectations. "Wilkerson did a phenomenal job," Straub enthuses. "They were there for you through the whole thing, helped you with promoting it, helping you on day-to-day business. I can't speak enough for how well they did." The partnership didn't just facilitate a business closing; it created a celebratory finale to decades of service while allowing Straub to confidently step into his well-earned retirement.
