The Vampire Diaries

We gotta say, The Vampire Diaries is definitely a guilty pleasure! Who doesn't love sexy men, romance, drama and Vampires? A few months ago we had the opportunity to send a piece of jewelry to the costume designer for The Vampire Diaries through a group we are a part of called The Artisan Group. We chose our Long Gold-filled Spike Necklace made with a handmade Swarovski Crystal Chain, Amethyst charms and long Gold-overlay spike. We were thrilled to receive an email from the costume designer that they wanted to use our necklace on the show! Fast forward to last week episode 13 and there was our Caroline Necklace being worn by Candice Accola! This was a big thrill for designer Brooke Mosher as she has watched The Vampire Diaries since the beginning and is a huge fan of the show. Our necklace was worn throughout the entire episode and was also worn again the following week at the beginning of episode 14!

Here are a few shots of Candice, aka Caroline wearing our necklace.

Having our necklace worn on The Vampire Diaries is a big highlight for us and extremely exciting as well. We can't wait to find out what will happen next week on the show and are looking forward to season 5 as it was just renewed by the CW. Did you also hear that there will be a spin off called The Originals? It will be about the original 5 family with Klaus and his remaining sibblings, can't wait for all the vampy drama to begin!

New Changes for 2013

The Fall/Winter season was incredibly busy and we had such a fantastic year for 2012! We are so excited to be launching our new Spring 2013 Collection and can't wait to share everything with all of you!

Over the next week we will be uploading and refreshing our website with all of our new designs. One of the changes we are most excited about is that we have named all of our jewels this season. Now you can shop our collection by name, for example our Long Tree of Life Necklace that was featured in the Vancouver Sun December 8, 2012 is now called the Vitalia Necklace. This change has been a long time coming and we're thrilled to have finally implemented this into our new collection.

We will also be dedicating time to updating our blog more frequently. Our Facebook page is a fabulous way to stay up to date and keep in touch with us and all of the new and exciting things that are happening at Brooklyn Designs. Our jewels will be seen on some new T.V. shows in the next little while also and we look forward to sharing all of the details with you as soon as we can!

One of our favorite new pieces for Spring are our Johanna Earrings. We have updated the colours for this season and are loving the Turquoise and Aqua options!

Shop our Johanna Earrings, Turquoise & Aqua.

Another piece we've loving is our Elena Necklace. It's a new piece from our Spring Collection and we're loving the long flowing delicate tassel detail. Shop our Elena Necklace here.

We'll be sharing more this week, have a super weekend everyone :)
