Jewelry and The Real Housewives series go together like a Bravo! marathon and a rainy day.
We gawk at their outrageous diamond purchases. Squawk when yet another Housewife decides to launch their own jewelry line (Ramona Singer, Kelly Bensimon, and Lisa Wu Hartman are just three I can name off the top of my head). So when New York Housewife, Jill Zarin, celebrated the launch of her new book this week, Secrets of a Jewish Mother, I was more than ready pull out the popcorn.
Two Jersey Housewives made a red carpet showing - both walking the fine line with the "class or clash" police. (No tables were flipped during the making of this program)
Ramona Singer complemented her trademark bug-eyed stare with tasteful diamond swirl earrings and a diamond and blue gemstone bracelet. Not bad, sister.
And Count-less Luann worked the hoop earring trend in a tan not worthy of April.
But what is a Jill Zarin event without an eye-rolling fabric clash and a garish display of ice, right? To that end, jewelry hounds, I give you Jill Zarin.
Bless you, Jill, you've never met a busy print you didn't wear or use for wall covering. She is working the season's turquoise trend, though, with a fun cocktail ring to match the pumps.
But I hate to say it - a Real Housewife red carpet event isn't the same without a little Bethenny, right? I'm just sayin'.
What do you guys think of the Housewife bling? Glam, gauche or gaudy?
