That should actually be the alternate name of this blog. I recently rediscovered a great gem (ha ha) of a bracelet shop in Sisco + Berluti. In maybe 2009, I did a feature story on them for a local newspaper back when they were known as Westwood-based Sisco Family Jewels. They make crazy beautiful bracelets all made out of semi-precious stones in a variety of colors and textures. And they're stacked on the wrists of lovelies from Anne Hathaway to Jessica Alba to Michelle Obama, from here to Hollywood:



Here are what mine look like:

And as if pretty wasn't enough, there's a philanthropy hook here, too. The family team uses the success of their jewelry line to help causes that carry significant meaning for their family, including Half the Sky Foundation, which works to care for orphans in China, and Ovations for the Cure of Ovarian Cancer.
