2015 - A Pleasant Surprise - Masoom @ Sneak Peek and Muse @ Genre

Last night the clock struck 12 and today is a new year... and what better way to start off the new year than by picking up a new cocktail dress in white silk at Sneak Peak by Masoom called Pleasant Surprise.  I can't think of a better way to start off the New Year... can you?

I love the cascading layers of this dress and the wide bow that accentuates my waist.... I left Mr. X a notecard and told him I was gift wrapped just for him!  Pleasant Surprise is an exclusive at Sneak Peek through January 5.

What I didn't realize is that Mr. X, knowing I am an Egyptophile, left me a most wonderful package from Muse... I felt like Howard Carter when opening this absolutely stunning jewelry set called Ma'at-ka-Ra Full jewelry set that is an exclusive for the Genre Event.

The set comes with two arm bracelets for men and women, earrings, a headpiece, a traditional Wesekh collar for men and women and an ornate nose ring that goes from your ear to your nose.  It is really easy to resize so wearing this is a breeze!

This set is expertly  rendered in the finest 18 kt. gold hand wrought loops embellished with the finest Persian turquoise.   There is great historic meaning to this necklace.  Hatshepsut Ma'at-ka-Ra was the first female pharaoh of Kemet. She reigned between 1650-1600 BC during the 18th dynasty. Ma'at-ka-Ra means 'Truth/Order/Balance ("Ma'at") and the Spirit/Double ("ka") of Ra'. Hatshepsut means 'Foremost of Noble Women'  I know for me, it will become a go to favorite necklace.
