GENEVA

Hailed as one of the greatest film stars ever, Katharine Hepburn, who died in 2003 at the age of 96, was a single-minded gal who did things her own way. From wearing trousers when they were still considered scandalous, to having a 24-year affair with fellow actor

Spencer Tracy and winning her fourth Oscar at the age of 74. As she once said: 'If you always do what interests you, at least one person will be pleased.' A new book by Karen Karbo shows women how to follow her lead. Here's how to add a little Hepburn chutzpah to your life. . .

Flaring 16th century French Mousquetaire cuffs are dreamy, yet a modern crisp French cuff is no longer the reserve of gentlemen. Those days are long gone! A pair of fine jewellery cufflinks brilliantly set off French cuffs on a ladie's wrist and can be unisex.

Cufflinks were traditionally a gentleman's jewell. However, there hardly is anything more becoming  than a superb set of cufflinks on a ladie's cuffed shirt. And happily this beautiful trend  is on the rise!

Cufflinks can be a powerful character statement jewel,  underlining your personality and your unique  style. Depending on their size, shapes and the materials chosen, cufflinks,can be worn in  infinite variety.

Dute to the many shapes and forms they can have, cufflinks can perfectly enhance your wardrobe, reflect your sense of style and even your sense of humour.  A pair that has been designed as your favourite pet or thing can be particularily charming.

Cufflinks are great for personalization as they can be engraved with your initials, coat of arms, and many other possibilties.

Let them sparkle with precious stones! They can be set with gemstones to suit your taste. Adding your birthstone for example  can make them feel even more special. Personalization helps make cufflinks a unique piece and a wonderful gift that commemorate  an event and give a lasting memory. They make an excellent corporate gift for professionals .
