Black Stingray Leather Tungsten Carbide Men’s Rings Unveiled by Titanium Kay Jewelers

Stingray & Tungsten

There has been a quiet revolution in progress for the past decade in men’s jewelry and Titanium Kay has been at the forefront; bringing quality designs crafted from innovative materials by world renowned jewelers to the marketplace. Today, this trendsetting online jeweler unveiled their latest leap ahead of the competition in men’s fashion jewelry. Made from virtually indestructible tungsten carbide, this ring features an inlay of black stingray leather to give men a strikingly different way to display personal style.

In terms of classic style, genuine exotic stingray leather has become the preferred material to use for crafting many fashion accessories such as belts and wallets, while in jewelry it has been accented with sterling silver. Pairing sensuous, black stingray leather with the powerful strength of tungsten carbide adds a new dimension to the impact it provides to any wardrobe choice: from casual to formal attire.

Unlike other leathers, the beauty of stingray leather doesn’t diminish over time: because the stingray’s natural habitat is water, it’s impervious to moisture, requiring only a buffing with a soft cloth to maintain its natural radiance. Complementing the visual appeal of this tactile leather is the high polished finish of tungsten carbide, four times stronger than steel with a density that surpasses titanium.

These marine creatures derive their name from their slender, whip-like tails that are equipped with venomous spines, are neither a threatened nor endangered species. However, only a few of the stingray species, called “scaly species” are suitable for the making of jewelry. The skin of these stingrays consists of thousands of tiny rock-hard “pearls” or scales.

Indeed, the exceptional strength of this leather and its resistance to damage from fire, water or being torn has earned it the title of the “most durable leather in the world.” The source for the quality of stingray leather is found in the structure of their skin. While the fibers in ordinary leather run in parallel lines, the scales or pearls of stingray leather originate at the bottom layer of the skin with the fibers growing in all directions. For this reason, you can neither easily cut nor tear stingray leather, making it the ideal material to accent tungsten wedding rings.

For the man who wants to spend their time enjoying life instead of cleaning their jewelry, the black stingray tungsten carbide ring is the perfect complement to enhance an active lifestyle. Titanium Kay jewelers know how important it is for men to have high quality jewelry accessories for that “finishing touch” that allows them to be well-dressed in any situation.

LVMH also know as Moët Hennessy – Louis Vuitton are making a move towards Edun. The ecological and ethical fashion company was found by Bono and his wife. Edun sells T-shirts and dresses in organic cotton made in countries such as India, Peru, Uganda, Kenya and Lesotho. Edun is a great company because they work with disenfranchised African citizens, teaching them to grow cotton, sew, and participate in the textile business. This is a great move for LVMH. I hope they hope to the principle and message of Edun clothing line. I also hope that someone make a company like Edun in the US! Hopefully it will help the economy here too.

Hot Tips for a Hot Summer Look

Fashion-forward ladies know it’s not just about sporting the right accessory or putting your best shoe forward this summer. Olive-complexion celebs like Eva Mendes, Jessica Alba, and Eva Longoria Parker have us gaga for glow. But you don’t have to flip through fashion magazines, pale with envy, any longer. Hollywood Tans compiled a glow-to guide complete with essential trends from the skin on outward.

According to Hollywood Tans’ Senior Tanologist Sue Lutter, regardless of what you wear, it’s important to remember style begins with your skin, after all — it’s the one accessory that’s sure not to go out of fashion.

“The key to making your favorite outfits stand out is displaying them on a glowing canvas,” says Lutter. “Hollywood Tans makes it simple, offering a Summer Starter Kit that includes everything you need to get a luminous, sun-kissed look — a tanning package, lotion, flip-flops, backpack and samples, all at a reduced price.”

For a fresh look, Lutter suggests following Hollywood Tans’ Summer Glow-To Fashion Guide:

  • A Natural Foundation — Giving your skin-tone a healthy bronze boost can make all the difference in achieving fresh summer style. Hollywood Tans’ Instant Tan powered by Mystic(R) only takes about 90 seconds and will give a rich, deep tan in four to six hours, lasting between five to seven days.
  • Bold Neon Totes — Nothing looks better with a tan than a bold citrus neon or shocking pink and this summer, bright colors are in fashion. Dare to go from the beach to dinner with a funky, colorful tote which will look sizzling with a simple white t-shirt and jeans.
  • Show it off — High-waisted mini bubble skirts are a summer must so don’t be shy about flaunting your gorgeous tan. Throw on a cotton tank and a pair of dangerously high heels or a gladiator sandal and you’re good to go.
  • Shapely Cut-Outs — This summer, a cut-out bathing suit is crucial for the beach. Show off your tan and just the right amount of skin with a flirty one-piece cut-out. Don’t be afraid to experiment with different prints and colors to find the one best ’suit-ed’ for you.
  • High Gloss Finish — Top off your look with sheer or tinted lip gloss to get that polished summer look you’ve dreamed about all winter long. For the perfect pout, keep lips hydrated by applying lip gloss over a lip balm with sunscreen.

Stage Stores to Launch Exclusive Brand by Designer David Rodriguez

content_01

Stage Stores, Inc., announced today that acclaimed New York designer David Rodriguez has created an exclusive line of women’s fashions for the retailer. Beginning this month, customers will be able to find the latest looks from the runway in their own communities, giving them the opportunity to dress Fabulous for Less. The exclusive line will be carried in 100 of the retailer’s Palais Royal, Bealls and Stage stores.

“The inspiration for my designs comes from the feminine form,” says Rodriguez. “The details, fabrics, colors and prints all flatter feminine curves.”

The ‘D.R. by D. Rodriguez’ collection features classic sportswear with a modern edge. Quality fabrics, lush prints, rich colors and soft, feminine detailing are hallmarks of the line. Customers will enjoy designer quality and attention to detail at affordable prices.

“Our stores have offered outstanding values by trusted brands for years. But today, many of our customers feel the pressure to do more with less – less money, less time, less effort,” says Andrew Hall, President and Chief Executive Officer of Stage Stores.

“Too many women feel they must sacrifice sophistication and quality for themselves in order to take care of the others in their lives. But our exclusive D.R. by D. Rodriguez collection gives our customer a chance to indulge her sense of style with designer fashions while staying within her budget.”

To celebrate the launch of the collection, Rodriguez will be making appearances at three Houston-area Palais Royal and three San Antonio-area Bealls locations in late June. In addition to an informal fashion show, style makeovers and goodie bags, one lucky customer at each appearance will receive a personal consultation with Rodriguez and a complete outfit from the exclusive line.
