LittleMo you have every right to your opinion, that's what makes Boards interesting. We're all different, a piece of jewelry I love, may make you gag and that's all right. We all have different preferences and we get to voice them as long as we're polite and not insulting. --Previous Message-- : Well put, Dmitry. : Thank you. : : --Previous Message-- : if that is what the young designers are : coming : up with, then I might suggest that they work : for the lesser end department stores. : : There is no magnificence, no grandeur, : nothing more than a little bit of : pseudo-sentimental playing around with : elements sufficient to satisfy a grade : school project, but woefully insufficient : for anything other than to be one of those : "annual" Christmas brooches put : out by Avon, or some such firm. : : : : --Previous Message-- : : I think you have hit the nail on the head, : Torkel.
