CLASSIC COLLECTIONS!

Oh, yes, my friends, we ARE going to show this off!  We are so proud to have been chosen as a feature by Rebeca Herrero, publisher and editor of Art Bodega Magazine for the quarterly Spring issue!  Published in Miami and distributed in the greater Miami area, New York and Palm Beach County, this sophisticated, modern magazine celebrates art, fashion, beauty, jewelry, nature and all the wonderful places and people who dwell in our jewel-box locations in Paradise!  


They asked me to write a piece on "Preservation, Nature and Fashion" and were kind enough to publish the entire article as well as many pictures of me with jewelry and clothing from Classic Collections!  The next SIX pages featured ladies who are very prominent in Wellington modeling Classic Collections jewelry, clothing, furs, purses and all of our luxury goodies.  


It was a great experience and we are very grateful for Rebeca Herrero's invitation to be in the magazine and for the beautiful photos taken by Abby Ballin and the hair and makeup by stylist, Michelle Leila.



BREAKING NEWS!
VIA FLAGLER BY THE BREAKERS
 
The Frisbie Group has re-named the beautiful retail and condominium project on Royal Poinciana Way to Via Flagler by the Breakers!  "Via" is a tribute to the old Testsa's Via; "Flagler" is a tribute to Henry Flagler, who originally called the street "Main Street" when he developed Palm Beach.  The Breakers part comes from the ownership by the Breakers for all of the ground floor retail, restaurants, parking and common areas that will be stunningly landscaped and feature art and sculptures.  

Plans currently have the project being completed in late 2019 and 2020.

FINE JEWELRY TRUNK SHOW

BENCHMARK OF PALM BEACH
MAY 2ND, 3RD AND 4TH!

 

Just in time for the many occasions that come up in late spring, Mother's Day, graduations, weddings, Father's Day,  etc., we are delighted to announce a Trunk Show by Benchmark of Palm Beach.  This family business has been in Palm Beach for over 25 years and features some of the world's most famous jewelry collections by David Webb, Cartier, Tiffany, Piaget, Gucci, Boucheron, and other famous names.  You will be stunned to see the selection and variety of their pieces and this show is being done early so if size adjustments need to be made for that special occasion, we have plenty of time.

Also, you may want to bring in jewelry to sell or trade as Ken and Michael Burns will be on site and are GIA certified appraisers and are actively buying jewelry now.

HATS OFF TO MAY!


So many hats, so little time!  At least this month we can make good arguments for shopping for hats!  Think of all the events where a spectacular hat will turn heads--Mother's Day (May 12th), the Kentucky Derby (May 4th), Memorial Day (May 27th), Cinco de Mayo (May 5th) (okay, that's a reach) and just plain old beautiful sunny days where one must take shelter from all that sunshine.  

Suzanne, TJ, Joyce and Sally "Do Lunch"!

Classic Collections has a fabulous variety of hats this season.  Made of straw, silk, cotton or other materials, and available in solid colors, patterns, feathers and more, we can offer you a terrific topper for your pleasure!

BEFORE YOU GO...CLEAR THAT CLOSET!

Shoe Closet

Classic Collections is now making appointments to help you clear out your closets.  If you have a lot of merchandise, we will come to your house and help you de-clutter.  Why not make room now for your fall merchandise and anything that you buy over the summer?

But time is limited, and the clock is running out.  Call us now for a personal consultation and appointment.  We also will accept out-of-state shipments once we have discussed what items you may want to consign and ship directly to us.  Please remember that we try to be "seasonally conscious" and have limited space.  

While the street traffic slows down in summer, we post everything on line in our FASHION Division on 1stDbs!  We also post all FINE JEWELRY on 1st Dibs also all summer long.  We get INCREDIBLE sales responses during the summer as ladies sit on beaches all over the world and shop online on their phones or I-pads!  You won't believe how busy we are!  
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!

Love, Kelly and Sally Kimball
