Mrs. Hamster and I had a blast at the  Tiffany & Co. New Collections event on Thursday. You can catch up on Hammy’s perspective here. And now let me share some more lovely bling, and a handful of my favorites, shall we? Right this way…

These jewel encrusted bands have an unbelievable WOW factor while still feeling whimsical and fun with a colorful mosaic.

Elsa Peretti must have known we were coming—I found Miss Starfish! These adorable pendants dangle on a sterling silver chain.

I’m also a big fan of Elsa Peretti’s Bean collection: Simultaneously precious and chic.

And look! We found Mrs. Bear Cub, encrusted in diamonds no less, and surrounded by an incredible opera-length necklace of diamonds and platinum. Lovely choice, Mrs. BC.

These canary diamonds (Mrs. Canary!) took my breath away. I was most tempted by the yellow and white diamond bracelets—an elegant splash of color and sunshine to accessorize an October bride, don’t you think?

But the classic Tiffany pieces that really made me swoon were these pink diamond rings:

When I let myself dream big, this is my dream ring. Nothing says our first married Valentine’s Day like pink diamonds… *ehem*

Here, Hammy makes love to the camera, err jewelry.

This enamel and gemstone collection is inspired by a 19th century design from the Tiffany archives. I looove a good history lesson, don’t you?

And finally, because I didn’t think y’all would mind a second viewing, the $7Mil, 20.01 carat, D color, internally flawless diamond in the center of this unbelievable necklace… side view:

::Phew!:: It’s getting hot in here. I think we need some refreshment!

As recent and soon-to-be brides, we simply could not leave without admiring the “candy bar” on the way out. Or really, as a mid-event refresher and again on the way out. And by admire, I mean daintily devour a little bit of everything.

And then the clock stuck midnight… or seven… and the sparkly dream of an event was over. I had so much fun hanging out with Mrs. Hamster and learning a little about the intricate designs of Tiffany’s newest collections. If you had to choose…

Which piece is your favorite [round two}?
