    It seems many years there is a hot category at the Holiday Season.
    One year Rubies, the next gold, another maybe earrings. More often
    than not I'm unprepared for a rush on any one particular type of
    thing. I try to be wide and maybe not so deep. 

    I've been hearing from jewelry reps that bracelets are very slow.
    Thank you, I have a lot of bracelets this year, which serves to
    confirm it I suppose. 

    I'd like to hear what people think/observed regarding what's hot and
    what's not this year. One customer told me in her town(next one over)
    she doesn't see people wearing diamond jewelry so much any more,
    which surprised me. They wear bead necklaces. I have almost zilch for
    that. 

    I've banked on a price point of $1K to $3K, no particular
    categories. That's what people have been spending so far so I'll ride
    the wave. Have to now. 

    This is the situation where it helps to have ample memo available to
    you.
