Welcome to my vintage jewelry haven! Take a dive deep into the world of vintage costume jewelry with me, a collector, historian, storyteller and detective with over three decades of experience under my jewelry belt. Join me as I unveil the treasures from my bauble box, sharing the history, inspiration, and stories behind each piece. From sparkly trinkets to historical gems, to book reviews I'll take you on a journey through my collection and share my honey hole secrets for finding hidden treasures. If you're curious about the allure of vintage jewelry and eager to learn about its rich history, you've come to the right place. Let's embark on this sparkling adventure together!
I’m glad she was showcased enough to be seen- think of how many unique ones that never get ‘seen’. At least she was shared with us- what a lady!! And you have beautiful jewelry!
Thank you so much for watching. She truely was a one of kind. I hope they do another exhibition of her jewels and fashion.
Jackie, what a beautiful tribune! Indeed, Iris is a legend that will never be forgotten in my book. She's one of my inspirations of all arts fashion jewelry, and I can go on and on. I love her. ❤ Thank you!😊
Yes, she was amazing susie, not one to be forgotten any time soon. She really gave me the
permission to be myself and wear the things I like to wear but was shy about it. Shes a legend.
Jackie - you honored Iris in such a lovely tribute. 😢🤗👏👏👏
Thank you for saying that! She truly was loved by me. The way she loved her life was inspirational. Rip Iris!
I truly believe the way she lived her life is a legacy we can all learn an important lesson about life from. There's absolutely no one else like her & there never will be, but we're not ever going to stop trying!😂😊
I couldn’t agree more!!! She was in a class all by herself and heaven is more stylish place cause she’s in it!!! RIP Iris!
SHE IS A LIVING LEGEND .. A MODERN DAY AGELESS ICON .. GOD BLESSED THIS WOMAN WITH THE TENACITY TO BE A STYLE ICON .. SHE LIVED HER TRUTH .. AND LEFT AN INDELIBLE MARK ON WOMAN ALL OVER THE WORLD .. SHE WAS TOTALLY UNIQUE AND ECLECTIC IN HER FASHION SENSE .. SHE COLOURED MY WORLD .. MORE IS MORE AND LESS IS A BORE .. ALWAYS MY KINDA VIVACIOUS GURRRRLLL .. ALWAYS MYSELF 💙 .. B .. XOXO R.I.P.
I couldnt have said it better myself Bravo!!! Clap Clap Clap!!! Amen
Oh wow I had no idea she passed and then I am in the same city West Palm Beach! I’ve been in the hospital or rehabs since January. I have a gorgeous brooch it’s 5”-6” long flower she was photographed in its lavender and violet with perfect green leaves and I searched her top which was black and got that too! This was a beautiful video ❤
I would to see what they brooch looks like. Sounds amazing. So glad you liked my video! Check out some of my other videos.
She was fabulous in every way. I will miss her, she was and still is my inspiration. RIP Iris💕💕😪😪😪
She is a legend! her style Transends the confines of time....she's timeless and I will always be influenced by her....may she Rest in Paradise the Rare Bird of Fashion!
Thanks so much for this video. I only started watching videos of Iris and other older fashionistas a few weeks ago i was so sad to hear she passed away just after I discovered her. I just turned 70 and she and others have inspired me. 👍👍👍🐢
I’m in my fifties and she has inspired me since in my forties and beyond! She was a piece of art personified and I will miss her dearly. But never forgotten.
Iris really was the quintessential icon & you're a wonderful example of what she's given to women of the world who wear their own style with beauty and Grace! ❤
Well said!!! Thanks for the compliment too! Iris is the stuff of legends! She will be missed but her style will never be forgotten!!!
What a cool introduction to Iris and a wonderful connection through that first bracelet. Thank you so very much Jackie for sharing this tribute.
It’s my absolute pleasure. She truly influenced my style and choices for jewelry collecting. She will be missed but her style will live on forever !!!
Hello Jackie, that was a lovely ode to the Outstanding Rare Bird! I'm sure Iris is grateful for the influence she bestowed on you ! More is more !!! 💗💗💗
Yes more is more and less is a bore!!! Iris was in a class all by herself. Her accessorizing is the stuff of legends!!!
Iris has been my favorite fashionista❣️you’ve done a beautiful job of honoring her authenticity and one of a kind style❣️I wonder what will become of her incredible Collections? I know that she had warehouses filled with her incredible collections, so carefully preserved. One day there will be a Museum in honor of her incredible one of a kind style and her long life of traveling the world collecting the most incredible pieces of wearable art the world will ever see❣️I’m sure that’s what she would have wanted ❣️❣️❣️
Omg. I can see a whole Christie’s auction go up and if it comes true I hope to be there bidding on at least one piece of her jewels!!! I almost bought a piece that she owned at the Peabody museum in Salem Massachusetts I can kick myself for not buying it. Jackie.
She was truly a Fabulous Woman and Icon!🙏😓🌹🌹🌹
Her style was supper unique and no one does accessories like she does. She will be missed but her style will live on forever!!!
Wonderful tribute and wow, your collection of bangles is fantastic.
Thank you!!! My love of bracelets was inspired by Iris! Her style was iconic!!! I will miss her but her style will last forever.

Thank you. This is a beautiful tribute. ❤
Thank you so much! She deserves the accolade she received as she helped people gain the confidence to wear what they want! Her style is simply amazing and stunning. She will be missed!
Lovely tribute! She was truly unique, a maximalist which I’m a fan of (but in a different style, tho do mix luxury, vintage, w/ low end) may she be blessed. Jet 🧡🎸🎶⚡️🦋🏍
I totally agree! I can’t believe I didn’t use that word maximalist to describe her. She was simply amazing. Thanks for watching and commenting.
What a great tribute, I’m glad she inspired you your style is amazing!
Awww thanks. I was trying not to get too emotional. She was an amazing fashion icon for sure!!!
Thank you, Thank you for this!!! I Love her❤ She taught me it's okay to be yourself ❣️❣️❣️ I even bought her Golden book 📖 😊❤
Absolutely 💯 she influenced a lot of my style in jewelry and fashion. But mostly she made me feel like I can be me. She was a rare bird indeed!
Wonderful tribute.
Thank you for saying that and for watching me gush over Iris!!! She is loved by many I the jewelry community.
I am so sorry to learn that Iris has passed away! Such a unique individual! I have one of her books, but really wanted to own one of her broaches.😢
Her jewelry will now go for double or more. I have a necklace from her qvc collection and that’s all. Wish I had more too.
Just purchased online a piece of her collection!😍👏👏👏👏
How exciting!!! What did you get??? I’d love to know.

I was fully captivated by every aspect of Ms. Iris Apfel, her perspective towards life and how she lived life unapologetically!! I was deeply saddened when she passed but her legacy will live on for generations upon generations!! I’m confident Iris smiles every time someone watches this beautiful tribute from you!! Please know that through this video you have inspired me to start wearing my jewelry and I’m sure that my days will be brighter. Thank you!! Next on my watch list is your brooches video!!

I really love her fashion and the eclectic ways she pulled everything together so effortlessly. She is unmatched and irreplaceable. I think you did a great homage to her. May her spirit and fashion live on for eternity! RIP Ms. Apfel!
She had a natural talent and a love for textiles and accessories. She was in a class all her own. May she rest in peace.
I’m so sad, just found out because of your video. Love her style too. May she rest in peace
She was amazing women! Carmen is my Titis name. Lol
She inspired me also. Thank you for your video tribute.
Thanks for watching! We should all embody a little bit of Iris’s spunk!
Hooo I didn’t know…she was fabulous
She really was fabulous. She was 102 years young. She use to say she was the oldest living teenager. lol.
I enjoyed this she was amazing!
So glad you enjoyed watching the video. Much appreciation! Jackie.
Did I tell you I love seeing all your bracelets ? I have iris first book rare bids.i had great jewelry shopping day yesterday.
There’s a new book coming out soon on Iris. You can pre order on Amazon. What treasures did you find. I didnt find anything this weekend 😢
You know you can also buy vintage bracelets plastics,
acrylics, celluloid or whatever or wear thinner bracelets (in silver,gold,
rose gold,white gold,etc...)!
Your arms WILL be able to hold those bracelets!
Great tip! I love the look but my big arms can only hold but so much bangles. Having smaller bangles will have the same effect. Thanks!!!
Just subscribed Jackie! Such a beautiful tribute to such an amazing woman, also loved your video, your own collection and your love for costume jewelry, too. I am also a Queens native and I will be watching her documentary, thank you for posting your wonderful video.
Thank you so much! Means a lot that you subscribed to my video. I lived in forest hills queens for a few years myself! Jackie.
Beautiful tribute ❤
Just found out through your video.
Glad you enjoyed it! She was an amazing person and an incredible designer! Jackie
Morning Jackie, I've lost my beloved husband 💔 I haven't been watching videos but I feel since I've been watching you for so long I just wanted to thank you for all your videos. I will hopefully be able to catch up soon. Love all you do ❤❤❤❤❤❤️
Oh no Yvonne. I can’t tell you how badly I feel for you. I lost my partner John two years ago and it totally devastated me. So sorry to hear about your loss it sent chills down my spine. My advice is to take it one day at a time. Keep active. What helped me is producing videos painting and collecting jewelry and books. Making things that was productive and beautiful. It helped to know that I was creating something positive. Please keep me posted on your well being. Jackie Bronx baubles @ gmail .com
@bronxbaubles thank you so much dear Jackie. Yes ,I'm truly broken. I also remember when you lost your loved one, I'm so sorry for that. I just went back to work last week and taking it minute by minute watching all these beautiful videos definitely help. Thank you so much for sharing all your beautiful collections ❤️
