Hey fabulous fashionisers!

I am putting together my next lot of preview shots to send through to the lovely folk at Vogue et al.
I have been staring at these for a few days now.
I really would love a few fresh pairs of eyes to give me your faves for submission.
(There are a few more but I think these might be the top picks for this range.)
If you can give me some delightfully constructive criticism, I'll repay my favourite critic with a pair of original Joolz earrings.

PS have to shout this out too! Just found out that I'm shortlisted for the 2007 Essential Awards for Accessories Brand of the Year!!! YAY!!!!
I'm so thrilled. The finals are judged by the public (I think) so will keep you posted on details...

1) Belleza Grande: Big baroque pearls with shell circlets in matching earrings & necklace.



2) Versuvious Vixen: Siam Crystal with Rainbow Obsidian, Coral & Onyx necklace (pictured here worn as a bracelet) & Siam Crystal tassel earrings



3) Curliquez: hand-made swirled glass beads with sterling silver foil overlay



4) Martini with a Twist: Finest Moretti Venetian glass with soft pink button pearls & sterling silver earring and necklace set



5) Amaroa: African Jade with Onyx necklace & earring set



6) Whispering Wind: Recycled native Australian timbers with button pearls & czech glass on chain.



7) Sacre Couer de Rouge: Mahogany Obsidian with Redwood & Swarovski crystals set

Congrats on the award nomination :)



My picks:


Pebble Beach & Whispering Wind - fantastic photo, something really different and (in my mind) more likely to get published as a result.

Curliquez - love the pattern

Belleza Grande - feels really unique

My top three;

1)Belleza grande - simple but very strong/bold image and I like the colours in it. The jewellery complements the model's skin.

8) Pebble Beach - For something a little different that really highlights the jewelery.

5) Amaroa - Like the composition and tones in the image.



Good luck with everything! It's looking quite impressive (I wish the images I had to chose from for all our mag's fashion spreads were always this professional).

Thanks Allan & Miss S, for your help! So glad everyone likes 8 - when I asked the model to do that, a positive viewing reaction is exactly what I was hoping for!

Thanks ruru!
Ooo so far its 8) Pebble Beach & Whispering Wind, followed closely by 1) Belleza Grande!
I must confess I'm a little surprised that 3) Curliquez has only got 1 vote so far... its great to get other people's reactions to stuff, helps me get out of my own headspace with this.

Thanks for the help, you lovely people who gave me feedback.
Looking forward to letting you know which mags they will be showing up in! (and I've put 8) on the cover of my upcoming brochure)
