Walking on Rodeo Drive today, we were drawn into Brooks Brothers by their lovely window displays featuring the new The Great Gatsby movie. I’m so excited to see it and was not disappointed by the lovely 20’s era vignettes around the store. What a gorgeous display! I was so drawn in by the details on everything – including the chandelier that featured shades monogrammed with “JG” on them. What amazing attention to detail! I was inspired by the flapper dresses and dapper men’s designs.
I’ve always been inspired by the art deco style and the 1920’s in general. The jewelry from that time period was nothing short of outstanding. It was a time when hand-crafted jewelry was the norm and great style was something to which one aspired. I had a zillion ideas for designs the moment I walked into this store. I absolutely love it when that happens!
Eye candy below. What’s your favorite feature?

I began creating as a child with simple jewelry pieces and various art projects. Twenty years ago, I started creating jewelry for myself. It wasn’t long before friends and family began asking me to make pieces for them. Soon after, Andrea Montgomery Designs was officially born. My desire is to make timeless jewelry that makes you feel more beautiful each time you wear it -- which we hope is always! My philosophy is to WEAR THE GOOD STUFF everyday. There’s no such thing as “saving it for a special occasion” -- every day is a gift!
