BY NOW, you have seen fashion magazine covers tempting
you with information on the new Fall look. Yes, the backlash
against the thong underwear poptart look has finally
occurred (sorry, guys). Moving ever forward, the new Fall look
reminds us to dress like a lady and act like one. Are we ready? I
am the first to admit that thinking about heels on shoes after a

Fifties and Sixties. But it is not too late to get started. I recently
saw some great ones in W.S. Antiques on Perry Street. Look
for colored stones with prong settings.
Large rhinestone and crystal pins are not to be overlooked,
either. The tailored dresser has a great assortment of pins in
natural stone. Slices of Agate, Tigers Eye, Rose Quartz to name
a few, have been showing up at all the art and craft fairs around
town this summer. Locally, check Tuesdays at the Farmers
Market, in West Cape May.
The Whale’s Tale, on Washington Mall, has a collection
of nature-inspired pins in enamel on sterling silver. For you
“diamond-only” girls, check Artisan’s Alcove, on Lafayette,
and MaryAnn’s, on the mall. The junior market is going to
enjoy this trend just as much, especially since it’s at a very affordable
level. Pins are popping up everywhere – try Pearls, on
