What's a gala without sparkle? Holidays call for shiny chandeliers, polished silver and rooms washed with a glow. Dressing up to the occasion calls for added shimmer -- a dress with the sheen of precious metal, jewelry that dances with the light fantastic, and beauty that is brushed to a gloss.
It's time to look at the world through magic crystals.
