Skirt or Pants? Is One Better Than the Other?

Find flattering skirts and pants. For a more professional look, a skirt suit really IS ideal, but pant suits are very slimming and add height. Remember, to increase your wardrobe options, you should look for a suit that features a jacket, pants AND a skirt that you can wear with existing blouses, tops, or sweaters you already own.

Let's Talk about Suits!

The search for professional women's suits depend on many things including style, comfort, fit and versatility. Women's suits generally come in basic colors, but you'll also find more designers including more stylish options. Tip Number One -- When shopping for suitings, keep your existing wardrobe pieces in mind to increase outfit options.
For example, if you have a lot of great blouses, choosing a suit that includes a nice pencil skirt is the perfect option. Wear the blouse with OR without the jacket!

Treska Is a Customer Favorite!

Treska Jewelry works hard to design quality handmade products. While some items are imported, each piece is made by hand and will enjoy the slight variations of the human processes. The Treska “look” is one of weathered or antiqued pieces that have that “one of a kind handmade” feel, which are not perfect by nature. They go to great lengths to ensure that their jewelry is as unique as its owner. Their creations are colorful, whimsical, interesting and seem like works of art for your ears, wrist, and neck. Each season they introduce new styles and colors - and this Fall won't disappoint!

Why John Medeiros?

Each piece is made from a strong and lightweight lead-free base metal alloy including some silver. Each piece is finished or plated in Rhodium and 14Kt gold which has a permanent non-tarnish, easy to care for finish. John Medeiros uses rhodium, a derivative of platinum. Rhodium has all of the attributes of platinum with the added benefit of being harder, lasting longer, and having a whiter tone. Stones: Man-made Cubic Zirconium which will not chip, crack, cloud or fade. Cubic Zirconium is virtually indistinguishable to the eye by diamond experts, can scratch glass like natural diamonds, and is tougher than a sapphire. The earring posts are made with surgical steel, so they're ideal for sensitive ears.
