The Os leave for their extended vacation on Martha's Vineyard this Thursday, and with no scheduled appearances this week, why not treat ourselves to a bit of eye candy in the meantime?

The wonderful Carole Tanenbaum is once again offering a selection of her carefully curated vintage brooches to Mrs. O readers, available HERE. Prices are $45 or $75 for a single pin, and $175 for a grouping of three. There are some gorgeous gems in the mix, such as the 'Cosmopolitan' trio above. Enjoy!

A note from Carole Tanenbaum:

"We have discovered a whole new way to 'cluster' brooches! We pile them close together to resemble fascinating larger brooches. The look is both creative and sophisticated. We also have some single beauties at special prices for Mrs. O readership. Welcome in the Fall season with a vintage treasure!"

I'm excited to announce another special selection of Carole Tanenbaum Vintage Collection jewelry, put together exclusively for readers of Mrs-O.org. This selection is a tribute to the first lady's penchant for the "classic, elegant, perfect" pearl necklace. And on the eve of Chelsea Clinton's wedding, one can't help but think several of the styles would be quite charming for a bride-to-be!

Click HERE to find the selection and enjoy. A note from the fabulous Carole Tanenbaum:

In vintage there has always been a wide variety of simulated pearls available. The highest quality ones to look for are glass, which are then coated with many layers of a pearlized finish. They are often individually knotted, which shows the piece is painstakingly handmade. The added benefit is that the pearls don't slide around! The lustre resembles the real thing, as does the weight. I bought a 50s collection of these beauties and am offering them to you, Mrs. O Readers.

Many of you will recall that a few months ago, the wonderful Carole Tanenbaum debuted a dazzling collection of Mrs. O-inspired, 60s-era vintage flower pins, collected with the readers of this blog specifically in mind (and affordably priced, just for us!).

The collection proved to be an overwhelming success, with Carole Tanenbaum's website subsequently inundated with our orders. With requests for additional pins coming in, Carole began compiling a second collection of Spring-inspired vintage flower pins, which I'm excited to announce will debut on Mrs-O.org on Monday, March 22! I'll have a new post up on Monday, with a link to the Carole Tanenbaum Vintage Collection website and instructions for ordering.

The photo above is a first sneak peek of what we can look forward to!
