Whatever the occasion, this rope exudes an effortlessly chic look that any fashionista will appreciate. At 60″, what we love most about this rope is its versatility. It can be worn as a single strand, doubled or even tripled, creating the fullest look (as seen below, with matching turquoise earrings, on Dr. Jen Hartstein, CBS Early Show.) So, what are you waiting for? This rope is a necessity for your spring collection.

Tanger Outlet’s Mona Walsh Interviews with WHHI-TV on Grand Green Re-Opening of Shopping Center

Vice President of Corporate Communications for Tanger Outlets, Mona Walsh, seen above [right] interviews with WHHI-TV wearing a beautiful three-strand large white baroque pearl necklace with a carved coral clasp with sterling silver by Patty Tobin.

Residents of Beaufort County, South Carolina, are eagerly awaiting the grand green re-opening of Tanger Outlets Center 1 shopping center, which is slated for March 31. The new center will replace one opened by other developers in 1987 and bought by Tanger in 2003 and will be the state’s first shopping center to be certified by Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design standards (LEEDs). The original center was poorly built and could not accommodate many tenants’ request for large spaces, Tanger officials said, but the new center fixes all of that and more. Developers proudly announced the addition of several new retailers, including Saks Fifth Avenue OFF 5TH, Adidas, Bare Escentuals, Brooks Brothers, DKNY Donna Karan New York, Hugo Boss, J.Crew, and many more. “Our brands are aspirational,” said Mona Walsh, Tanger assistant vice president for corporate communications. “What we’re offering is value.”  Check out WHHI-TV’s video interview with Mona Walsh to learn more about the economic and environmental benefits of the much anticipated new shopping center.

From Business Strategy to Jewelry Design, Patty Tobin talks with CNN on making a mid-life career change

January 14, 2011  |  News & Events

It wasn’t until her late-50s that Patty Tobin decided to wave goodbye to her life-long career as a business strategy consultant and embrace a new life and a new business as a jewelry designer. Despite the tough economic times, Tobin opened her Chelsea boutique in September 2009. “I was nervous knowing what I was up against,” Tobin said. “Branding a business in a good economy is challenging, and a bad economy is worse. As a consultant, I knew all of it.” While support from family and friends was critical, there were still some who doubted her venture, says Tobin. “I had some people saying it’s going to be over before it starts.” Despite the naysayers, however, Tobin has seen so much success in the first two-years of her business that she plans to open a second boutique in the next year. When looking to make a major career change, Tobin says, “”Know there will be defeats and challenges along the way,” she said. “But if you’re passionate, it will give you the strength to forge ahead.”
