New York Times Features Shiona Turini
The New York Times featured Bermudian fashion expert Shiona Turini, in an article about her favorite jewelry, with the stylist to the stars noting that her necklace features a map of Bermuda and is locally made.
The New York Times website said, “Somewhere at the bottom of the North Atlantic Ocean, in the middle of the Bermuda Triangle, is one of four gold bracelets, gifted to Shiona Turini by her mother. She lost it while diving into the water from a cliff. A friend helped her search underwater for it with no luck. But this hasn’t deterred Ms. Turini from wearing most of her personal jewelry at all times.
“I pretty much wear the exact same jewelry every single day. I’ll start with the bangles: I feel like every Caribbean girl has gold bangles. And when I was, I guess, turning 16, my mom gave me these four. The thing with my mom is that she always wore a stack of gold bangles, so every time she walked down a hallway, I would hear the jingle-jangle. And now I do that. I’ve had people at work be like, ‘I always know when you’re coming.’ That is a sound that defined my childhood.”
“I was filming a video one summer, and I had climbed up this very high cliff in Bermuda, and I went up higher than I’ve ever been and jumped and lost one of the bracelets. I’ve spent the past couple years, every time I meet jewelry designers, asking if they can recreate this so that I could go back to my four.”
The superstar stylist also gave a shout out to a local Bermudian jeweler, saying, “This little necklace, which is a new addition to the crew, is a map of Bermuda. I love it so much, because it’s locally made. This couple that I’m obsessed with, they have a jewelry store. It’s called Davidrose, and it was a part of their new launch.”
