Everything comes to she who waits...

It's the day – or rather the night – that SATC fans in the UK have been waiting for: the movie sequel premiere. Cue huge sigh of relief. I couldn't take too many more of those teaser photos in the glossies. At last we girls can experience the entire movie ourselves – only one day to wait. Start saving your calories for the popcorn...
I couldn't resist including this photo of Carrie and Co, taken at the New York premiere the other night (source: marieclaire.co.uk). They look A.M.A.Z.I.N.G. How do they do it? Kim Cattrall will be 54 in August, you know. Talk about an inspiration.
Of course it helps that the movie is released just at the right time, when we're all fed up with politics, the economy (or lack of it), stop-start summer and general absence of fun and glamour in our lives. Hurrah.
Jewellery-wise there are some serious sparklers on display in the NYC premiere photos too – mostly some very fine, classy pieces on show that scream 'super expensive'. Can't wait to see what the girls will be wearing at the London premiere tonight.

Competition winner and new stockist

While everyone else is fed up with the election fall-out, the lack of sunshine and the continuing volcanic dust cloud that's messing up holidays and airline schedules throughout Europe, here at Rok Chix we have at least been able to make one person happy.
That person is Courtney from Doddington, who is the winner of our April competition to win our Chunky Silver and Gemstone Charm Bracelet - woo hoo!
Courtney's name was picked at random from our database of mailing list members, so well done to her. To everyone else who didn't win, there will be more chances to bag a Rok Chix competition prize in due course – and for those who haven't signed up to our mailing list yet, get cracking now if you want to be in with a chance yourself.
Meanwhile, the latest stockist of Rok Chix jewellery is Charlie, a fab little boutique at 746 Ecclesall Road in Sheffield. Owner Ruth Charles is stocking a selection of Rok Chix pieces, so pop in if you're in the area.
As for me, I'm putting the finishing touches to some new designs – including our first pieces featuring rough diamonds (I know, too exciting!) – so look out for more news soon.
