Here a few behind the scenes pics I took at a recent editorial shoot: all jewelry used was from the new store and the images were taken in the area around.

New Collection preview

Last week in NYC I had the chance to lend the first samples of my new “Jeanne D’Arc” Collection to an editorial shot by photographer Yulia Gorbachenko.Ring and necklace in one: Model Britt is wearing some of the Jeanne D'Arc black silver rings as pendants. Get them on mimivert.net

One of a kind Miss Bliss

You must have seen her before. Beautiful dancer Melanie Alexander is watching us from the ongoing Benetton campaigns all over the world.
Melanie got her unique look and nickname Miss Bliss (Black Swiss) from her redhead Swiss mother and African-American father.
I first met her at a fashion show in Switzerland. Her sweet and positive personality makes you fall in love with her at first sight.
Yesterday in Zurich Melanie and I had coffee and an inspiring talk. It was the perfect autumn day, so I took the chance to take her picture with her new Mimi Vert ring.
Here is what she said: "The moment I put the Star-Ring on my finger, I did not want to take it off anymore. Playful and feminine, that is just like me."

Valerie by Lorraine Rodriguez

I wish I could meet more of my clients personally. Like Valerie. I first knew her when she interviewed me for a local indie magazine more than five years ago when I was just starting making jewelry. Actually she was the first person writing an article about Mimi Vert. Since then she has gotten herself quite a large collection of MV pieces. I got those pictures of Valerie from her friend photographer Lorraine, who is also an amazing ilustrator. I simply adore these images.

Alejandra becoming face of Rimmel London

A few days a go I did a shoot with fellow model and friend Alejandra Ramos Muñoz for the next issue of MV zine, which will be out very soon.
Together with Zooey Deschanel and Solange Knowles, she recently signed on to become the new faces of the cosmetic line Rimmel London, following Kate Moss, Georgia May Jagger and Coco Rochas.
Alejandra is represented by Element in Puerto Rico. Here she is photographed by Davide Gè and styled by Javier Scalley. Alejandra is wearing a black lace dress by Lisa Cappalli and Mimi Vert's cypriote necklace.

It was still a little cold when I took a walk with my sister in Zurich a few weeks ago... Rebecca is wearing a tube scarf, a Jil Sander Vintage blazer, American Apparel leggins, Chloé sunglasses, Comptoir des Cotonnier boots, her bag is from Concalma and her jewellry Mimi Vert.

Sneak peek

Here a little preview for our first commercial...

Apart from being a model my friend Rocio is a very talented photographer. I just spent an amazing time with her here in Switzerland and Paris. See more of her pictures flickr.com
And... Cristobal and Juanjo, thank you for taking the best care of my hair cristobalsalon.com

multitasking

No doubt I love photography. There are many great photographers I really admire. Without aspiring to compete with them - in my job the temptation to try out the experience behind the lens is huge.
Now it is something between pleasure and impatience (the dubious excuse to safe time) that sometimes makes me shoot for mimi vert myself...
