Hi Girls

I love diamonds, you love diamonds and of course Marilyn loved them so much that she sang about them. One of the most famous jewel thieves of our time didn’t hold them in much regard but she made a career of swiping them before local and foreign jewelers knew what hit them.

Doris Payne made a career out of permanently borrowing diamonds from only the finest jewelry stores in the world. She began her thievery as a teenager,crafting her appearance and her mannerisms to fool jewelers into thinking she was a wealthy woman simply out to add jewels to her collection. She was so charismatic, in fact, that she has been called a female Carey Grant. Despite several arrests and her current incarceration, at age 75, she carried on, loving the game more than the money.

Now no one can condone this woman’s actions but you have to say that she definitely had a passion for jewelry! I mean who among us hasn’t looked in a jewelry store without longing for a certain piece of sparkly jewelry and diamonds do have a certain seductive charm all their own.

Fortunately most diamonds are so affordable now that we don’t have to resort to Doris’ tactics or reap her reprisals. Gorgeous diamond studs can be had for less than a hundred dollars.

And beautiful diamond rings, like she coveted can be had for just a few hundred dollars.

And if you get the itch to make a Doris play, simply go out and rent To Catch a Thief with Carey Grant and watch it while wearing your most fabulous diamonds and jewelry.

SMILES!
