I'll Kiss You

Jewelry : Artisan : Necklaces

 

"Went down to the local gypsy And I handed her the same line - 'You know what I want from you So honey won't ya gimme #9' Cause you know lately I ain't feelin so great - Last time she gave me love potion #8 And you know pretty baby how I think you're pretty smart But one sip from this bottle and I'll tear you all apart -

The gypsy told me that the first thing That would happen you get dizzy Second thing you better make sure That your boyfriend isn't busy Cause you won't wanna eat And you won't wanna drink You won't wanna talk And you won't wanna think My mother used to tell me not to kiss on this first date This time when I see you, you know I ain't gonna wait!

I'll Kiss you Gonna corner you and not let you go I'll Kiss you Don't tell me nothing - I - I - don't wanna know And twidely - dee - and twidely - dum I'll Kiss you, I'll Kiss you, I'll Kiss you

Hopped into a taxi, and I told the driver Got to get me cross town Killed the bottle, started seeing double When the driver turned around And though I was a failure with love potion #8 #9 was different and the hour's getting late Now I'm standing on the corner Everyone looks great to me And if you come and get me take me where I want to be

I'll Kiss you... ...I'll Kiss you I'll Kiss you"

Cyndi Lauper ~ 1984

Yes, Cyndi Lauper inspired this piece :-) I really adore this necklace!!! I know I say that often but I really truly adore this necklace!!! It aims to showcase every single seemingly-contradictory facet of this unique artiste. Indeed, she's so unusual.

And, hopefully, so too my choices of gems for I'll Kiss You (almost typed Kill instead of Kiss, ha ha ha).

I've used, taking deep breath, AAA Flawless Polished Honey Topaz Nuggets, AA Purple Garnet Briolettes, Polished Sunstone Briolettes, delectable Copper and Chocolate Keishi Pearls, AAA Oregon Sunstone Nuggets (see the schiller on those babies) and Red Spinel Rondelles (just a wee bit towards the left of the Honey Topaz Nugget in the focal).

The luscious, decadent I'll Kiss You neckpiece measures approximately 4.15" across at her very swirliest whilst her length is adjustable from 17.5" all the way to 23.5". Both 999 Fine and 925 Sterling Silver Wires were used in the making of I'll Kiss You , in various gauges.

{ COLLECTION }

I'LL KISS YOU is part of Eclettica's OF CRINOLINED PRINCESSES Fall 2008 Collection, which has been unabashedly inspired by self-imagined fantasies of crinolined princesses and British-colonial romance. Think insanely exquisite, happy designs reminiscent of Queens Victoria and Elizabeth, tea, crumpets and the Indian Empire.

Watch as (our signature) cheerful luxe colour cavorts shamelessly with (our other signature) decadent dark drama to parade a showcase of fabulous Fall designs for fashionistas and sartorialists alike. I'LL KISS YOU is an exclusive one-of-a-kind design, available only from the studio of Eclettica.
