ABOUT LEFT TURN JEWELRY

Judy Klimek, designer and visionary of Left Turn Jewelry, has created an art form of her high-end gemstone necklaces and earring designs. Her artistic expression reveals her attraction to gorgeous gemstones, beautiful colors, grand style and exotic silver. Judy’s designs are one-of-a-kind necklaces and earrings, with bold imagination and extraordinary beauty. Judy has a strong passion to bring beautiful hand crafted gemstone necklaces to women of Laguna Beach and all over the world.

ONE-OF-A-KIND CREATIONS
Left Turn necklaces are one-of-a-kind that have been hand assembled by Judy. Because each necklace is an original art piece, no two necklaces are alike. Once a design is sold, it’s unfortunately gone.

FASHION FORWARD STYLE & DESIGN
Left Turn designs take an already fashionable gem and turns into a big and bold art piece. So its no surprise that our Left Turn customers tell us how sexy, powerful and confident they feel every time they slip one of our necklaces on. Left Turn necklaces are light, elegant, stylish and easy to wear.

Stand out and get noticed with an original Left Turn necklace.


JUDY KLIMEK

Designer and visionary for Left Turn, Judy Klimek is responsible for all design, production, and quality control functions. On any given day, you will find Judy working in her Laguna Beach workshop creating a variety of necklace designs, sometimes reworking a single piece 10 times until it feels just right.

Judy also oversees the purchasing of gemstones, meeting one-on-one with a network of dealers and buyers to find unique gemstones that have become the signature of Left Turn. In fact, Judy’s buyers travel to Asia and South America as much as five times a year finding the quality gemstones that makes Left Turn necklaces extraordinary.

She brings 25 years of gemstone necklace design and GIA training to Left Turn. In her previous work life, Judy built a highly successful multi-million dollar electronics component business, managed hundreds of people and serviced customers all over the world.

Judy’s strong commitment and passion brings beautiful gemstone necklaces to customers who want something different, something unique and something interesting. After traveling the world, Judy could not find Left Turn quality necklaces anywhere, so she decided to build them herself. True to her company name, Judy has decided to take a Left Turn. Ask her customers and they will tell you – it’s the best move she has ever made.

lindsay-albanese-style-expert-left-turn-jewelry-helen-of-troy-necklace1Lindsay Albanese, stylist and celebrity columnist for US Magazine and Life & Style, hosted the 68TH Annual Golden Globe Award Hospitality Suite this past weekend. Our very own Chic Little Devil representative in Los Angeles outfitted Lindsay, in which she looked absolutely fabulous in Left Turn’s Helen of Troy, of vintage Tibetan Turquoise and Bronze beads and a 400 carat rough cut aquamarine pendant.

Lindsay spoke with hot celebs like Kyle Richards from the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, and Rex Lee from Entourage.

Lindsay had this to say about her look, “I just wanted to say I adore the collections you represent (Chic Little Devil). The Left Turn Jewelry made my outfit that much better!!!!”

We surely will Lindsay!

white-rock-earringsHi friends! It’s been a while but I have been working on some great designs that are both edgy and fun.

So check out some of the first earring designs. Necklaces are coming soon!

P.S. Don’t worry they’ll be on the website soon. Check out the larger images on my Facebook page:

Left Turn Wraps Up at the Cannes Film Festival and Looks Ahead

cannescelebsinsidelt

The Cannes Film Festival turned out to be a great event for Left Turn. Our jewelry was worn at the big events around town and we even got featured on MTV! Our La Belle de Cannes Collection, as well as some of my favorite pieces, were introduced to the European fashion media and were a hit with everyone that came into the style studio at the Palais Miramar. Very exciting! With the Cannes Film Festival behind us, I’m looking forward to a very busy month of June.

Our “Fabulous Jewels and Fresh Organics” summer trunk show with Kimberly Parry Organics is going to be fantastic! We’ll be featuring our new “Bare it All Collection” while Kimberly will introduce her toxin free organic skin care and body products. The show is set for June 24th at the Left Turn Gallery. To RSVP, give us a call at (949) 376 4400.


Until next time… Judy

La Belle de Cannes

athenabanner

Left Turn has officially gone international! Our newest collection debuts with the opening of the Cannes Film Festival today. We’ve named it “La Belle de Cannes” to celebrate the film festival and Left Turn’s participation in it. The look and feel of the collection recalls the glamorous Golden Age of Hollywood and I had a great time designing the collection, imagining how the necklaces would have looked on some of the stars of that time.

My personal favorites are Lauren Bacall, Marilyn Monroe, Katharine, and Audrey Hepburn. The La Belle de Cannes collection was created with these wonderful women in mind. The necklaces and earrings are infused with some of my favorite and most vibrant gemstones including tourmaline, sky blue topaz, and sapphires. If you’re not familiar with these stones you can see them in our collections on the site. They are GORGEOUS!

And last but certainly not least, I would like to say “Thank you” to all the new and old friends of Left Turn who stopped by our trunk show at the Montage Resort with Oscar de la Renta over the Mother’s Day weekend. Your support helped us have one of our most successful shows ever!

Until next time… Judy
