Just because we’re not clinking Champagne glasses and soaking our sore feet in Vegas right now doesn’t mean we can’t pretend we are. Admit it: We’re all a little bit nostalgic for jewelry week. With that in mind, we thought we’d share a few of our favorite pics snapped by photographer Camilla Sjodin last year at the JCK and Luxury shows. (And it wasn’t easy—she grabbed more than 1,000 shots in less than two days on the floor!) Enjoy these flashback pics, and we’ll see you next year at the Sands and Venetian.
We always love the jewels at Omi Privé, and we loved their display case even more. One word: Legos!
