IGNITE INSPIRATION WITH HEARTS ON FIRE...

So yours truly here was invited over to the Ignite Inspiration event recently at Suria KLCC Centre Court where I got to personally meet the Hearts On Fire's Director of Design, Ilaria Lanzoni there…

An Italian, Ilaria brought with her seventeen years of high-end design expertise to her role in jewelry design for Hearts On Fire. Her collections have been featured in major fashion publications and on celebrities at Red Carpet events all over the globe. She has also been honoured with the prestigious award for Best Design in Haute Couture at the 2015 Couture Show in Las Vegas for her Serafina necklace…

It began with a mini showcase where two lovely models showed off some of Ilaria's collection...

It was a unique session where some of Malaysia's top designers were also invited to join in a small competition where they were given 20 minutes to think and design a jewelry design…

Being thick faced/shameless at times, I asked if I could join, since I saw another blogger friend beginning to sketch, and I did not actually see who the people around me- they are actually very renowned local Malaysian fashion designers..… hah.. me.. a nobody trying to design a jewelry, David against Goliath… and was given a pencil and an art paper.. So I got down to sketching but was somewhat disappointed with my messy sketching…

from google.com

I actually sketched out a sketch for necklace and a wrap around ring and bracelet with sparkling feathers for my inspiration.. thinking of wet feathers of a bird that sparkles in the sunlight… but because of the messy sketch, I definitely did not expect to be selected..

However, it was definitely a shock when I was the third finalist Dato Seri Meer Habib and Ilaria Lanzoni selected and even a bigger surprise when I won the competition… and a glorious Lorelei Bow Bracelet…

In case you have not heard of it, a Hearts On Fire diamond is one that really sparkles, whether in the light or in dimmer areas, it will sparkle… which is simply unseen in other diamonds. I actually find myself half hypnotized and half mesmerized by the sparkle.. lol..

A Hearts On Fire diamond will boast a perfect ring of eight hearts on the bottom and a perfectly formed, symmetrical Fireburst® on the top that will outshine any other diamond. 

Thus, the Hearts On Fire diamond is definitely perfection you can actually see that stands alone today, earning the Hearts On Fire diamond the title of the World’s Most Perfectly Cut Diamond…

A Hearts On Fire diamond captures light and reflects it from the top, because of its perfectly symmetrical cut and increased surface area, creating maximum brilliance and fire, and it is a diamond that can capture anyone’s attention from across the room… and now, Syukur Alhamdullilah/ Thank God, and thank you to also Hearts On Fire and HABIB Jewels, I am now a proud owner of one of these beauties….huhuhuh
