Jules Smith
Gina Nigrelli’s Jules Smith collection is reminiscent of influential runway looks of decades past, infused with modern day influences. Gina’s aesthetic marries her unique contemporary point-of-view with the classic statement-making trends of the 70’s and 80’s. She’s identified the free-spirited essence of the 70’s and the glamor and excess of the 80’s as her brand inspirations.
Jules Smith styles include bold cuffs, star motifs, engraved monochromatic animal print pieces, chain link silhouettes, vintage charms, rings and bangles, and has become a favorite among A-list celebs.

Something for everyone
A fashion poem, a proposal turned down
Behind the blinds, on a young night, hides the brides
Besides, amass of immaculate garments hang aside
Litters of posh makeup line the dresser
Jitters in the overhead lights are lesser
~
Sitting snugly, the grooms impatiently awaits unhammer’d
Music in the background accompanies a silent murmur
Backstage, the brides’ hearts are beating drums
Lights dimmed, curtain fall, anticipation and excitement hum
~
Into the aisle the first bride walks tall with a lot of pizzazz
Into a far, her kohl’d eyes focus drawing attention with a buzz
A barrette holds her hair neatly exposing a polished face
Abet-ting her elegance, her fountain dress drapes with grace
~
Her phlegm holds under the brightly lit ceiling as she poses
In refute of a proposal, a hand akimbo, and another poise
Heels matching her deluxe buckle show off pedicured toes
Her lustrous hair dances as she sashays away without a flaw
~
One after another, brides walk the aisle, all refuting the groom
Like the first one, they are dressed exquisitely, some to the tooth
Inked, dabbed, and fauxed, the show’s an assorted mixture of peels
Unlike the first one, one with jinx totters away in snugly fitting heels
~
Organizers and designers, in a shower of confetti, bow without refute
Applauding grooms accept the proposal successfully refute’d
Backstage, the brides celebrate an amassing mess and their refute
Grooms wander into the night in search of a tavern, what a refute
Buckle up!

A Fashion Poem
We’ve been born fashion, we’re here to stay
We have the flow, we’re here with frays
With a flow to a show, we catwalk with sways
With a know how, some dow, n a show to run, we’re to stay
§
Without strings attached, they run the show with strings and thongs
With strings attached, we suit in stripes and straps
Wake up with the make up, take-away make-up by the drive-in
From pedicures to manicures to ‘womancures’ all while driving
§
Handbags got paint and polish, to brush and to polish
From head to toe, it’s all sparkling, for a dent there is a tow
For a friend or a foe, it’s all for a sparkling show
For a clipped toe, there is an open shoe, with a show
§
With bangles, earrings, necklaces, a ring and bling
With a dangle, a shake, a sway, a click and cling
With a handle, and a chain, and another, am zing
A tattoo, mascara, and a tan, am think, am zinc’d
