WIFE Sweet Treat: Sidecar Doughnuts

Sidecar Doughnuts

 

Gourmet doughnuts have FINALLY arrived in Newport Beach! Sidecar is the brainchild of Brooke Des Prez and Sumter Pendergrast, a creative duo infusing an exciting, soulful energy into the art of doughnut making.

Each doughnut is made from scratch with only the freshest possible ingredients from local producers and distributors. Sidecar features yeast-raised, cake, and buttermilk old-fashioned varieties, which are dressed up with a little something extra like fresh fruit, artisan chocolate, and even bacon.

WIFE Wish List: Vintage “Nail” Bracelet

Vintage Gold Aldo Cipullo Nail Bracelet

I’m sure every Wife has seen the recently released Cartier “Just un Clou” bracelet. However, before it was the Just un Clou it was originally called the simple, no frills “Nail” bracelet, designed by Aldo Cipullo for Cartier in 1971. Aldo Cipullo was not only responsible for this innovative design, but also the creation of Cartier’s current best seller, the Love Bracelet.  While working as Cartier’s in house designer, he soon became the company’s recognized household name. Making sophisticated clientele, highly anticipate all of his elegant and whimsical collections. Cipullo’s work is influenced by his passion for pure and clean modern living, driving his imaginative side, leading him to use everyday objects like nails, knots and even games as themes.

So why own the new knock off, when you could own the original one of a kind piece? The rare and highly collectable nail bracelet is crafted from 28 grams of 18k yellow or white gold and available at: 1stdibs.com, Justoneye.com and modaoperandi.com
