The 86th Annual Country Club Plaza Art Fair

The Country Club Plaza located 5 miles south of Kansas City’s downtown is the United States first suburban shopping center designed to accommodate automobiles.  

The Plaza attracts millions of shoppers each year, and it is our crown jewel in Kansas City!   From when I grew up, the Plaza has changed a lot.  Department stores and restaurants may have come and gone but one thing that has stood the test off time is the upcoming Plaza Art Fair.  The Plaza, in all its beauty, draws Kansas Citians from all areas of our city and around the U.S, to promote Art this September!  Thus the tradition of the Plaza Art Fair which began 85 years ago continues today.

This year the Plaza Art Fair will have 240 Artists!  It’s one of the Top Art Fairs in the U.S.  The Plaza itself is such a beautiful example of Colonial Spanish Architecture, the perfect setting to celebrate Art.  And it's the reason I chose to locate Jet Couture Jewels to the Plaza.  The Plaza Art Fair is one of our favorite times of the year, and we hope you have a chance to experience it for yourself.  Art is still well and alive on the Country Club Plaza and at Jet!

Uplifting Turquoise

Turquoise is a gemstone that I am very partial to.  Not only is it one of the most ancient stones dating back as far as 5000 BC and one of the most powerful metaphysical healing stones, it just really lifts my spirits.

When I design with turquoise, I love pairing it with other gemstones. This piece, from our Jet Couture Jewels Signature Clasp Collection, is one of my personal favorites. The turquoise and jasper is such a beautiful combination. The rich tones of the arid desert landscape inspired me to pair the earthy brown toned jasper with my beloved turquoise. 

 It’s a statement piece worthy of the desert color palette, and it’s the perfect piece for Fall.

The large Signature Jasper Clasp is set in sterling silver and highlighted with multiple strands of cascading vivid blue turquoise. It reminds me of a day I spent admiring the amazing southwest red rock formations and how they contrasted with a beautiful crystal clear blue sky. I would love to hear what memories this Jet Necklace brings to you!

The Boho Chic Style

Are you a Bohemian? Love Boho Chic? As the designer at JetCouture Jewels, “Boho" is a big part of who I am.

Being a “Boho" is about living a free spirited life, being who we want to be and is characterized by a style of fashion that is flowing, easy and fabulous!  I love an Avante-garde, casual, artsy, colorful and eclectic look.  For a “Boho", accessories make the difference.  Each accessory worn by a “Boho”  is worn by a carefree soul with a little bit of a wild streak.  And, although I design for a variety of tastes, I am passionate about creating styles for women who aren’t trendy, but who want to express their own personal look.  It’s ok to “March to the beat of a different drummer.” I know I do!
