Before diamonds lit up red carpets, there were pearls soft, luminous, untouched by fire or blade. They are the only gem born whole, shaped not by earth’s pressure but by the quiet resistance of a mollusk. Pearls speak not in sparkle, but in glow a softer radiance that has captured hearts for thousands of years.

Their story begins in ancient civilizations. In Egypt, Cleopatra famously dissolved a pearl in vinegar to prove her wealth and drank it. The Romans valued pearls above all other gems, draping them over furniture, armor, and even shoes. In Imperial China, pearls were symbols of wisdom and protection. Medieval knights sewed them into their garments for luck in battle. European royals considered them so precious, they were once reserved by law for nobility alone.

By the Renaissance, pearls were currency, diplomacy, and power gifted between kings, stitched into coronation gowns, passed down in secret through generations. Before cultured pearls, each one was a miracle of nature, a treasure fished from the depths and offered to the elite.

And yet, for all their ancient prestige, pearls remain modern perhaps more now than ever. They are the emblem of enduring femininity, evolving elegance, and quiet power.

In a world where details speak louder than declarations, men’s jewelry has become a symbol of quiet power. No longer limited to the realm of watches and cufflinks, today’s modern man chooses pieces that reflect substance, character, and style.

A Symbol of Renewal, Sophistication, and Everlasting Glamour

May, a month when spring reaches full bloom, is perfectly represented by the rich, verdant glow of the emerald. Known for centuries as the stone of royalty, emeralds have adorned queens, empresses, and icons of elegance and today, they remain one of the most sought-after gems in fine jewelry.

At Mina D Fine Jewelry, we celebrate emeralds not just for their vibrant green hue, but for their meaning. Emeralds symbolize rebirth, wisdom, and growth, fitting for a month of new beginnings and radiant transformation. Whether gifted to a May-born loved one or worn as a signature piece, emerald jewelry adds a bold, refined touch to any collection.

There comes a quiet after the whirlwind, the house feels still, the pace slows, and for the first time in years, you have space to exhale. This is what they call the empty nest, but I’ve never liked that phrase. Because this chapter isn’t about what’s missing. It’s about what’s possible.

You’ve poured your love, your energy, your heart into raising and nurturing. And now, as your children soar, it’s time to return some of that love inward.

Maybe that looks like a quiet trip. A new project. Or it’s a piece of diamond jewelry from Mina D Fine Jewelry. Not to mark the absence of something, but to honor the presence of you. Your strength, your story, your beautiful spark.

A diamond doesn’t ask permission to shine. Neither should you.

At Mina D Fine Jewelry, we believe every life milestone deserves to be celebrated, especially the ones that mark growth, strength, and transformation. If you're in your empty nest season, there's no better time to commemorate your journey with a meaningful piece of diamond jewelry.

A woman jeweler who understands what a woman wants.

There’s an unspoken language between women. It’s in the knowing glance, the shared intuition, the way we read a room—and each other. As a woman, a designer, and a New Yorker, I create with this understanding at my core.

Jewelry is more than adornment. It’s memory. It’s ambition. It’s the story we tell without saying a word. The way a diamond catches light when you raise your glass, the cool weight of gold against your skin, the feeling of slipping on a piece that feels like it was made just for you—because it was.

MINA D Fine Jewelry was born from this truth. I design for the woman who leads, who feels deeply, who has nothing to prove and everything to express. She’s not dressing for attention—she’s dressing for herself. Quiet power. Unmistakable elegance. And a signature style that’s all her own.

Each piece is designed with intention and made with reverence—for craftsmanship, for heritage, and most of all, for her. Whether she’s commanding a boardroom, celebrating a milestone, or simply elevating the everyday—this jewelry meets her where she is, and reflects where she’s going.

Last night, the fashion world converged at the Metropolitan Museum of Art for the 2025 Met Gala, embracing the theme “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style.” This year's gala honored the rich history and influence of Black dandyism, celebrating the artistry and cultural significance of tailored fashion.

As a native New Yorker these iconic places captivated by the Met Gala are more then just what is in the media, for me they are my usual New York spots. The Mark Hotel is one of my favorites go to bars for drinks with the ladies. The Met Museum a normal to walk by and stand in front to check my phone when I am on the UES.

Despite the evening's rain, the red carpet was ablaze with creativity and elegance. Here are some standout moments that captivated us:

• Demi Moore captivated onlookers in a striking black-and-white off-the-shoulder gown by Thom Browne, designed to resemble an oversized necktie. She complemented the look with silver drop earrings and matching bangles, styled her hair in an elegant bun, and sported a smoky eye makeup look.

• Adrien Brody made a statement with a gothic-inspired ensemble, accessorized with an oversized brooch by Elsa Jin, adding a touch of avant-garde flair to his look.

• Pharrell Williams, a co-chair of the event, embraced the theme with a custom Louis Vuitton ensemble adorned with 100,000 pearls, reflecting his personal interpretation of dandyism and intentional style.

• Miley Cyrus turned heads in a risqué fishnet gown by Marc Jacobs, paired with a short, spiked hairstyle that added an edgy twist to her look.

• Anne Hathaway exuded elegance in a Carolina Herrera ensemble featuring a crisp white dress shirt with an exaggerated collar and a beaded maxi skirt. She accessorized with a massive diamond necklace centered with a rectangular sapphire from Bulgari.

• La La Anthony paid homage to her late friend Virgil Abloh by wearing an archival Off-White design from the Fall 2020 collection, celebrating his visionary contributions to fashion.

Everyone has that one relative who's "in the diamond business" — you know the type.
Well, for you, I’m that relative.

Only I’m not some distant uncle or a random cousin you barely know.
I’m your sisterhood, your girl, your ride-or-die in the world of fine jewelry. 💎✨

I’m that girl.
The one who listens when you need to vent.
The one who doesn’t judge when you share your wildest dreams (or biggest mistakes).
The one who gives you real advice — not sugar-coated, not salesy — just truth with love.
The one who’s been there, done that — from the travel adventures to the life lessons, the daring decisions to the moments that shaped me.

I’m the big sister you didn’t even know you were missing — but now you’ll never want to be without.

And I come with something extra special:
The inside scoop on all things diamonds.

Not just what you can Google.
Not just what you’ll hear at a jewelry counter.
I'm talking real-deal knowledge — the kind you only get from someone who lives and breathes this world.

I’m your bestie — only better.
Because I bring the sparkle.
Literally.

At Mina D Fine Jewelry, it’s not just about beautiful pieces (although, yes, they are stunning).
It’s about trust. Connection. Sisterhood.
It’s about knowing you have someone who genuinely cares about helping you shine — inside and out.

A night out at the Women's Club of Red Bank with Turnkey Women.

An enjoyable evening of networking with fellow women, professionals, entrepreneurs and likeminded women, who support each other and show up for each other.

The night was filled with laughter, light bites, mocktails and cocktails. There was also an option of getting your birth chart reading done. 

We had a demonstration of both the cocktail and the mocktail, the cocktail by the fabulous Lauren Farrell of Joocy Tits Vodka. Joocy Tits premium vodka is made in Florida and with each bottle purchased it donates to Breast Cancer Charities. The delicious refreshing cocktail we all got to make with our own mixing station was with Joocytits premium vodka, cucumber water and a kick of pineapple juice for some sweetness.

The mocktail was demonstrated by Anne Dubon of Arbonne and we used a healthy fizz stick in a yummy pear flavor. Talking about wellness and the energy boost that this natural coffee alternative gives you.

Silvi boards and Dreamtastic Parties had delightful light bites and beautiful table scape done. 

Sun Flour cookies was there with Turnkey Women Logo cookies which are not only beautiful but delicious. 

Our gracious Turnkey Women founders Stacy and Shannon kept the vibe going and kept the prosecco flowing. 

What a fabulous night to kick off Spring.
