Gracious
I really wish I could see this exhibit at Sotheby’s, honoring the style and elegance of the legendary Grace Kelly.
Almost as much as I wish I could have attended Ellen Barkin’s jewelry auction around this time last year – and buy a couple of things. Like the diamond briolette necklace. Or the strand of emerald beads. Or the long diamond tassel earrings. Or the JAR diamond thread ring…
Apparently Ms. Barkin decided to unload the sparkle after her billionaire husband, Revlon chief Ron Perelman, summarily ditched her (with security guards in attendance, no less). If I were her, I would have kept every last carat. After all, diamonds are a girl’s best friend.
But she did make $20 million on the auction. So maybe she’s laughing all the way to the bank – or the jewelry store.
