This Runway and Jewelry Trend Is Clear as Black and White

All colors of the rainbow were still going strong on fall/winter 2018/19 runways, but distinctive graphic looks in black and white made an equally bold statement. Jewelry designers have been creating a trend in blackened metals accented with white diamonds for some time in geometric and linear forms, as well as more fluid lines. These looks continue in popularity in everything from fringe earrings to contemporary takes on the riviere necklace.

This Third-Generation Jeweler Was Ready for Retirement. He Called Wilkerson

Retirement is never easy, especially when it means the end to a business that was founded in 1884. But for Laura and Sam Sipe, it was time to put their own needs first. They decided to close J.C. Sipe Jewelers, one of Indianapolis’ most trusted names in fine jewelry, and call Wilkerson. “Laura and I decided the conditions were right,” says Sam. Wilkerson handled every detail in their going-out-of-business sale, from marketing to manning the sales floor. “The main goal was to sell our existing inventory that’s all paid for and turn that into cash for our retirement,” says Sam. “It’s been very, very productive.” Would they recommend Wilkerson to other jewelers who want to enjoy their golden years? Absolutely! “Call Wilkerson,” says Laura. “They can help you achieve your goals so you’ll be able to move into retirement comfortably.”
