WELCOME

Joe has big shoes to fill as the newest Watch Dog in the family, but luckily he’s got the big paws to match!

Excitement!

Just when we thought we couldn’t take any more excitement… along came Joe. Call him fearless, a goof ball, a burst of energy. You just have to love the sheer exuberance of a puppy.

We are excited to present to you the latest issue of The Wixon Experience. We enjoyed your feedback from last year and got straight to work on this issue. Inspired by our love of food, we share our special Spookie recipe, tour some tasty macaron shops in town, and I pass on a few of my favorite things in Hoprah. (Yes, I just added an H to entertainment giant Oprah Winfrey’s name.) We are busy continuing the renovation on the back part of our store. The watchmakers can’t contain their excitement over their new space— it truly is state of the art. If you love watches, be sure to check out the Baselworld article and explore some of the watch brands’ new novelties. Speaking of excitement, there is no one more exciting than Dave Lee from WCCO radio. See what inspires the man behind the microphone on page 62. We are thrilled to bring you the latest jewelry and watch trends, and hope you will be inspired by some of the new pieces.

We look forward to seeing you soon and would love for you to meet Joe “Dynamite” Wixon!

Style is an outlet for creative self-expression, and for jewelry there is no piece more impactful than a notable statement necklace. These pieces are all about individualism. They are a reflection of one’s personality and presence. The right statement necklace is designed to engage and delight the wearer, and is also near impossible for others to miss.

Statement necklaces have been gaining momentum in the fashion industry over the last several years. Their recent surge in popularity is no surprise, as history often repeats itself in design and inspiration. Some of the earliest forms of jewelry were statement necklaces made of organic material such as shell or bone beads.
