STYLE GALS
Lia Sophia Summer Collection

By DIVAGALS | February 22, 2011 | Food Fashion Style

Fashion Week may have ended at Lincoln Center, but here at DivaGalsDaily, we’re just getting started!

We visited New York City’s Empire Hotel (TV DivaGal loves to say the one owned by Gossip Girl‘s Chuck Bass), to check out the new summer line from the jewelry collection Lia Sophia.

While sipping on a Bellini, we learned from Lia Sophia’s creative director Elena Kiam that this season’s collection is all about “utilitarian chic,” offering designs in mixed metals and oxidized gold, and the company is incorporating leather into their collection for the first time.

Check out our exclusive video below as we slip into Lia Sophia’s rough cut bracelet with crystals, the tier ring with crystal and resin and matte gold earrings with black diamonds; each piece retails between $150 and $300. To score your own Lia Sophia look, visit www.LiaSophia.com.
