The Golden Baubles

We know what you’re expecting. Last night was the Golden Globes, which makes today the day we bring you tips on how to “get the look”. It’s true, we watched. In fact, we tuned in from the moment cameras started rolling and we judged every manicure, bobby-pinned curl, gown, heel, and especially jewel as it made its way down the red carpet. We picked our faves, we picked our flops, and we prepared to tell you how to make it into the first category with the help of www.ben-amun.com.

But it’s been done, and since here at Ben-Amun we prefer to be ahead of the game, rather than watching the game on replay, we’ve decided to spice up the post-Golden Globes blog buzz with a little something we’ve decided to call The Golden Baubles. Join us as we award suspiciously similar titles to members of the Ben-Amun family for their work in 2011.

Best Drama
The award for Best Drama in 2011 goes to The Molten Gold Large Statement Necklace!

(The acceptance speech)
Molten Gold LSN: “Oh my. Ok. First of all, I’d like to thank Ben-Amun for this award! I wouldn’t be here without you! I’m so honored to be recognized for my ability to make an elegant outfit a show stopping outfit! I also want to thank my family: my husband, The Molten Gold Short Pendant Necklace, and our beautiful twins The Molten Gold Linear Earrings. This one’s for you!”

Best Comedy
The award for Best Comedy in 2011 goes to The Mod Silver Teardrop Earrings!

Mod Silver Teardrop Earrings: “Wow! We thought for sure this award was going to Brazilian Brights! We never expected to win, being up against jewelry as bright and spirited as you guys! Anyway, thank you to Ben-Amun for recognizing that even though the word “teardrop” is in our name, we’re really very flirty and fun-loving. We had such a good time adding movement to a lot of different types of outfits in 2011, from casual to formal, and we look forward to continuing in 2012!”


Best Actress
The award for Best Actress in 2011 goes to The Horn Cuff!

Horn Cuff: “I always dreamed of winning a Golden Bauble! This is really so overwhelming! Finally, I feel like all of the hard work that it took for me to get here: the affixing of my hammered silver plate to my bronze cuff, and the polishing of my horn… it was all so worth it. And to the rest of the cast, Portofino Gold Horn Pendant Necklace and Tribal Fan Earrings, you’re the best!”

Best Supporting Actress

The Award for Best Supporting Actress in 2011 goes to The Gold Metal Hinge Cuff!

Gold Metal Hinge Cuff: “Thank you. It’s an honor. I can be worn with anything.”

Best Foreign Language Film

(awarded to a piece of jewelry inspired by a culture that speaks another language)

The Best Foreign Language Star Award for 2011 goes to The Maharaji Multi Chain Pendant Necklace!

Maharaji MC Pendant Necklace: “I am touched. Thank you Ben-Amun and all of my fans. I am so proud to be a statement piece that is both elegant and edgy. It has always been important to me that the quality of my performance never waivers, and although I am always complimented when I appear at parties, this Golden Bauble is the greatest compliment of all.”

Best Mini-Series

The Award for Best Mini-Series in 2011 goes to The Resin and Metal Bangles!

 

Medium Lime RMB: “Woo! Woo! Woo! Ever since our appearance on the cover of Vogue in July we’ve been living the dream! We’re proud to be such a diverse cast, from Thick, to Skinny, to Red to Gray, we make such a good team and it feels great to be appreciated for our collaboration. Thanks for this, Ben-Amun!”
