&lt;p&gt;I can’t believe it’s here! Today, the news officially broke about our new &lt;a href="http://www.heartsonfire.com" title="Hearts On Fire" target="_blank"&gt;Hearts On Fire&lt;/a&gt; retail concept and store opening in Las Vegas, with a great &lt;a href="http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052702303360504577408204228940144.html" title="Wall Street Journal Hearts On Fire article" target="_blank"&gt;Wall Street Journal article&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://online.wsj.com/video/making-diamonds-more-like-apple-ipads/BDE1F3C7-C638-41A1-A1F4-1FEE09AB057E.html?KEYWORDS=Hearts+on+Fire" title="Hearts On Fire Wall Street Journal video interview" target="_blank"&gt;video interview&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But this announcement is about so much more than a &lt;a href="http://www.heartsonfire.com/find-a-jeweler-near-you.aspx" title="diamond jewelry retail stores" target="_blank"&gt;retail store&lt;/a&gt;. It’s truly about revolutionizing the industry…about changing the world of &lt;a href="http://www.heartsonfire.com/shop-jewelry/.aspx" title="diamond jewelry" target="_blank"&gt;diamond jewelr&lt;/a&gt;y and the way people shop for &lt;a href="http://www.heartsonfire.com/learn-about-our-diamonds/we-promise.aspx" title="the meaning of diamonds" target="_blank"&gt;diamonds&lt;/a&gt; forever. Nothing like this has ever been done…and we are so excited to be at the forefront.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Designed by the same team that created the beautiful &lt;a href="http://www.apple.com/" title="Apple, Inc." target="_blank"&gt;Apple&lt;/a&gt; stores (which also changed the world of retail as we know it), we couldn’t be happier with the results of our sleek, modern design and innovative, interactive shopping features.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And with more stores coming to major US cities and across the globe in the years to come (we already have several more locations to be announced for later 2012 and 2013!)…the excitement is only going to grow.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So check out the pictures, or if you are in Vegas, please stop by &lt;a href="http://www.caesarspalace.com/casinos/caesars-palace/casino-misc/the-forum-shops-detail.html" title="Hearts On Fire at the Forum Shops" target="_blank"&gt;The Forum Shops in Caesars Palace&lt;/a&gt; to experience our store for yourself. We’d love to hear your feedback!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;♥&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span&gt; HOF Girl &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Part 2: Craftsmen &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Have you ever wondered what it means to be considered The World’s Most Perfectly Cut Diamond®? I definitely have, as it was one of my biggest questions when I first entered the Hearts On Fire world.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;That’s why I think it’s so important that we take a new approach to help the world understand us better. A new way to truly see what makes Hearts On Fire so very special…and so very different.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You’ve already seen The Best Diamonds and know that we start only with the highest quality of rough diamonds the world has to offer – a miniscule one tenth of one percent of all diamonds.   But now, we want to show you why it takes The Best Craftsmen in the world – master diamond cutters as rare as the diamonds themselves – to take those exclusive diamonds and create a masterpiece.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I hope you enjoy this one as much as I did.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;♥ HOF Girl &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Part 1: Diamonds&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As I explained last week, at &lt;a href="http://www.heartsonfire.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Hearts On Fire&lt;/a&gt; we believe in &lt;a href="http://blog.heartsonfire.com/post/16465845896/the-evolution-of-perfection" target="_blank"&gt;perfection&lt;/a&gt;. And to us, this simply means being the&lt;em&gt; best&lt;/em&gt; – the absolute best – in everything that we do.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You’ve experienced the overarching magic of how diamonds transform in our first video, The Evolution of Perfection. But this amazing journey goes even deeper, and we now want to tell you more in series of three videos that help explain this exclusive perfection.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We’re naturally starting with diamonds. Diamonds sourced from less than a tenth of one percent of the very best that Mother Nature has to offer – guaranteeing the highest quality results every single time. Guaranteeing, simply, that your &lt;a href="http://www.heartsonfire.com/shop-jewelry.aspx" target="_blank"&gt;diamond&lt;/a&gt; sparkles more than any other.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But to really understand, take a minute and watch this amazing video…and see for yourself what it means to truly offer the &lt;em&gt;best&lt;/em&gt; diamonds.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;♥ HOF Girl&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;P.S. Eager to see more? Stay tuned for more on what being the best means, coming soon!&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://blog.heartsonfire.com/post/17211787028</link><guid>http://blog.heartsonfire.com/post/17211787028</guid><pubDate>Tue, 07 Feb 2012 10:52:00 -0500</pubDate><category>Hearts On Fire</category><category>diamonds</category><category>diamond jewelry</category><category>best diamonds</category><category>perfect cut</category><category>perfect diamonds</category><category>video</category></item><item><title>Top 3 Engagement Ring Trends for 2012</title><description>If you were watching diamond jewelry trends in 2011, you’ll know that last year was quite an...</description><link>http://blog.heartsonfire.com/post/16818534049</link><guid>http://blog.heartsonfire.com/post/16818534049</guid><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2012 09:32:00 -0500</pubDate><category>Hearts On Fire</category><category>diamond engagement rings</category><category>diamond trends in 2012</category><category>diamond rings</category></item><item><title>Chapter 1: The Evolution of Perfection
Perfection, by...</title><description>&lt;iframe width="400" height="300" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/Z9brTf8QTEo?wmode=transparent&amp;autohide=1&amp;egm=0&amp;hd=1&amp;iv_load_policy=3&amp;modestbranding=1&amp;rel=0&amp;showinfo=0&amp;showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chapter 1: The Evolution of Perfection&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNoSpacing"&gt;Perfection, by definition, it is a state of flawlessness. It is all which is complete, so good that nothing of the kind could be better.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNoSpacing"&gt;But with so many people today claiming this description, how do we really ever know what is “perfect”?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNoSpacing"&gt;I have, and always will, believe that perfection is &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;more&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; than words. Perfection is that feeling you get when you just&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt; know&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; something is right. The feeling of something groundbreaking or life altering. The feeling that something is just…well, perfect.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNoSpacing"&gt;If you know anything about Hearts On Fire, you know we are known as The World’s Most Perfectly Cut Diamond. But with this use of “perfect” comes a lot of questions…understandably.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNoSpacing"&gt;That’s why we recently took some time to really think about our use of the word “perfect,” our use of what “perfection” really means. It was actually a lot simpler than we thought, and we confidently stand by our words.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNoSpacing"&gt;Because, yes, when it comes to diamonds, they have always been considered exceptional and the ultimate recognition of love and status. But, here at Hearts On Fire, we have our own ideals and our own standards. We have our own idea of perfection…and what that means to our industry, our diamonds, and, ultimately, to our loyal fans.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNoSpacing"&gt;To us, perfection is not just a simple definition. To us, perfection is not what was once deemed perfect – it is where that perfection has evolved today through drive, dreams and willingness to embrace modern technology advances. To us, perfection isn’t just perfect now, it is “always the best” for now and the future.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNoSpacing"&gt;It is an explanation hard to put into words, so we’ve chosen not to try. Instead, we think that this video explains it so much better. It is the Evolution of Perfection, and it is the heart (no pun intended) and soul of what we believe at Hearts On Fire.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNoSpacing"&gt;There is much more to say about this amazing video (and don’t worry it will come!), but for now…do you believe too?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNoSpacing"&gt;&lt;span class="messagebody"&gt;&lt;span&gt;♥&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="messagebody"&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;HOF Girl&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://blog.heartsonfire.com/post/16465845896</link><guid>http://blog.heartsonfire.com/post/16465845896</guid><pubDate>Wed, 25 Jan 2012 10:23:00 -0500</pubDate><category>Hearts On Fire</category><category>diamonds</category><category>diamond jewelry</category><category>YouTube video</category><category>evolution of perfection</category><category>perfect diamonds</category></item></channel></rss>
