Fourth Crazy Night of Chanukah Wish

Edited by Jessica Lapidos

It’s the fourth night of Chanukah and I’m getting down to business. I need this ring, really, I do. The giant set stone is citrine – a crystal that is said to bring the beholder a sense of focus and positive energy. The designer Paula Mendoza travels the world in search of jewels and inspiration. From Colombia and now based in D.C., she’s been making jewelry for the past five years, completely emerged in the craft. This ring is phenomenal and everything I need in my life.

Carmen Marc Valvo to Show at Citrine Lounge NYC

When I think Citrine, I think of porcelain-faced model boys, college girls ready for a Sex and the City-styled night out, and Christian Siriano (the Project Runway hosted his birthday bash there). I’ve never thought, however, that the venue could be home to Carmen Marc Valvo’s show for the upcoming February Fashion Week.
