Hot Together – Swarovski & Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland

The beauty of ‘Tough & Frilly’

I’m the type of girl who adores pairing a hot pair of jeans with
6-inch LB’s or, right now, a military jacket with a Carrie Bradshaw-style big, poofy, ballerina skirt (check March issue of Flare, pg 42), so it is no wonder that I am, and always have been, a huge Tim Burton fan. (Uh, the hot mess that is Johnny Depp in Edward Scissorhands, is a no brainer that equals TOO beautiful and WAY HOT!)

And don’t even get me started on Beetlejuice (Classic!), Corpse Bride and The Nightmare Before Christmas! Knowing that I absolutely LOVE his movies & style can give you a good sense of the type of people, art and fashion I find fascinating & hot, hot, hot!

So when I heard about Swarovski launching a collection of unique jewellery pieces that captures the spirit of Disney’s Tim Burton-directed Alice In Wonderland, three words came to mind: WOW, GORGEOUS and SOLD! (The all caps represent how fast my heart started to beat when I heard too!)

The line features a host of vintage and gothic details inspired by the outlandish personalities found down the rabbit hole including the Mad Hatter, Red Queen and the instantly recognizable Cheshire Cat.”

The collection will be in stores in about a week (the last week of February) at Swarovski Gallery stores across Canada. Each a beautiful combination of ‘Tough & Frilly’, here are my FAVE pieces – GORGE!:



(The White Rabbit: Tea Party Pendant; $160)



(The White Rabbit: Round Hall Key Pendant; $130)

(The Mad Hatter Necklace; $160)


The movie itself opens Friday, March 5th, 2010, I’m sure at a theatre near you!
