Charm Bracelet Looks Like the one Grandma Gave Me

Tue, 16 Feb 2010 20:25:35 GMT

A few days ago I was shopping online for a birthday gift, and I came across a charm bracelet that was almost identical to the one that my grandmother gave me when I turned ten years old. That bracelet is one of my most prized possessions and my daughter has asked me more than once if she can wear it, but I haven’t been able to let her. I’m so afraid something will happen to the charm bracelet, and since my grandmother has been gone for more than 24 years now, it has so much sentimental value that I can’t part with it.

I actually ordered this charm bracelet because I knew my daughter would be thrilled that she had a bracelet that looked so close to the one that has meant so much to me, but has been off limits to her and everyone else. I know she’ll be so excited to know that the charm bracelet is for her and that she doesn’t have to share it with anyone if she doesn’t want to. I’m going to order her a few charms to go along with the charm bracelet, and probably give it to her when she gets her report card.

Looking At Sterling Silver While Vacationing In Morocco

Tue, 16 Feb 2010 16:57:27 GMT

Last summer I went on the most amazing vacation that I have ever taken, my husband and I took a two week tour to Morocco together! There were obviously many things that I loved about this fantastic trip, but one of the most interesting things that we did was look at all different kinds of jewelry. My favorite type of jewelry that we saw was sterling silver, I could not believe how unique every single piece was. We spent many days out in the local markets finding our favorite sterling silver stalls and taking pictures. By the time that I was back in the states, I had enough pictures to make three photo albums!

I would have never imagined that I would be on such an amazing adventure. Morocco is easily the most interesting place that I have ever been in the world, I am so glad that I was able to see that beauty of the culture and people. Before going to Morocco, I had never seen such beautiful sterling silver jewelry. I am so glad that I took so many pictures while I was there.

My Grandmother's Old Charm Bracelet

Tue, 16 Feb 2010 16:01:54 GMT

My Grandmother has had a collection of fun trinkets for as long as I can remember. I can say that without a doubt, my most prized possession of hers was her charm bracelet. I used to love sitting with her and hearing the stories for each of the charms on it. She told me that she was given her charm bracelet from my great grand father when she was ten years old. I had always coveted her bracelet and wished that I had one just like it.

When my first child was born, my grandmother came to visit. She was so excited because our son was the first grand and great grand child in the family. He was also the first boy since my twenty-eight year old cousin was born. The night that grandma arrived, she gave me a little box to open. Inside of it was her charm bracelet! I could not believe it and I was very moved. I love that she gave me her special bracelet and maybe one day, I will have a daughter or granddaughter to pass it down to.

I Am Loving My Pearl Jewelry, Especially My Pearl Earrings

Tue, 16 Feb 2010 15:49:44 GMT

Of all of the many types of jewelry I have worn, pearl jewelry is absolutely my favorite. I have never felt more elegant than when I am in my favorite pearl earrings. My friends and I usually try to go out once at least every other week, and we always try to get really dressed up for the occasion. I pretty much always wear my pearl earrings along with the matching necklace and bracelet to go with them. Each girl in our group has their own special jewelry that they wear, I guess you could say that it is a tradition for us.

I love that my pearl jewelry represents me so well. It is all so feminine and classy, I can not think of a situation when wearing pearls would be inappropriate or un stylish. In fact, I am very excited to say that my sister is getting married in a few months, I plan on wearing my best pearl earrings and everything else to match them. I can not wait to celebrate that special day in my best clothing and jewelry.

Cubic Zirconia: Looks Can Be Deceiving

Tue, 16 Feb 2010 15:12:34 GMT

Like the saying goes, you can not judge a book by the cover. This is accurate with most anything in life, even jewelry. For example, I love to wear beautiful jewelry, but I do not want to spend an outlandish amount of money on it. For that reason and many others, I love cubic zirconia jewelry.

Whenever I wear my cubic zirconia jewelry I receive so many compliments, people have no idea that my jewelry is not real diamond! Feeling less concerned about damage or loss of cubic zirconia is just another perk of wearing this versatile jewelry. Even though I love to wear my real diamond jewelry here and again, I find myself wearing my zirconia jewelry more than anything that I own.

I truly believe that I have found the perfect type of jewelry. There is nothing else that I can think of that fulfills glamor and cost effectiveness, while at the same time being quite easy to replace when lost or stolen. I simply can not wait until I find the opportunity to purchase more zirconia jewelry.

Even The Best Outfit Is Not Complete Without Fashion Jewelry

Tue, 16 Feb 2010 14:44:03 GMT

I Love to get all dressed up, and I will find any excuse to put on my most beautiful clothing and fashion jewelry. Recently I was given two tickets to go to the opera, I was so excited! I called up my best friend, and together we began planning what we wanted to wear and how we wanted to do our makeup. The next day we set out to get our nails done in preparation for our night out on the town, we wanted to have our nails done to match our fashion jewelry!

When the day of the opera came around, I had a long list of things to do to be ready by the time we were supposed to leave. The first thing that I did was polish my jewelry. Finally it was time, to go. As my friend and I checked ourselves over in the mirror, we truly felt like royalty. I loved the way that my fashion jewelry and nails glittered together. That night was wonderful, we were complimented throughout the night and the show was amazing. I can not wait until the next time we get to go out in high fashion again.

Unique fashion jewelry

Sun, 14 Feb 2010 09:57:07 GMT

I went out with my girlfriends recently and had a good meal and caught up with all our lives details. I noticed both of my friends, who are sisters, had some beautiful sterling silver bracelets and necklaces on. The sterling silver was very unique and both were the same style just different jewelry items on them. My one friend said she gave her sister the necklace and bracelet set for Christmas and bought another one with different hanging baubles on them for herself. The bracelet almost looked like a charm bracelet, but had only two items on them. They were definitely unique and very eye-catching. I asked where she got them and she was excited to say she has several fashion jewelry online sites that she likes to purchase from. Her sister now looks online too, for unique jewelry. They both said it is hard just to browse online, because they both want to buy something every single time. Very dangerous, indeed. I will look at their favorite online sites and try to contain myself too.

Fashion jewelry on the list for Valentines

Thu, 11 Feb 2010 16:36:59 GMT

I have a friend who always gets fashion jewelry for Valentines Day. It is her husbands tradition to buy some sort of jewelry as a gift and a dinner out. My friend anticipates what kind of bauble her husband will get her every year. The fashion jewelry I have seen on her from her husband is always very pretty and unique. Through the years, he has given her sterling silver earrings and necklaces, a set of pink pearl earrings and various bracelets. They have a daughter that gets some simple jewelry from dad too, like charms for her charm bracelet or earrings. I think this is a sweet tradition and you can never go wrong with giving jewelry for any type occasion, so it is always a win, win for him. I personally love sterling silver and through the years have received lovely pieces for Valentines Day and my birthday. I do remember when I received each gift. That’s what is nice about jewelry, you create such great memories when you purchase or receive fashion jewelry.

Stay Classy with Pearl Earrings

Fri, 01 Jan 2010 23:42:14 GMT

Pearl earrings are the one piece of jewelry that I'm definitely saving up for. In high school, a friend gave me a book on fashion history as a gift. I became mesmerized by the styles from the past. I began noticing that some pieces of clothing or accessories would look absolutely fabulous today. I discovered that these timeless pieces are called "classics" or "basics". Pearl earrings belong in that category.

Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis was one of the classiest women in my fashion history book. I immediately fell in love with her sense of style. She was always so poised and graceful. As a teenager, I began modeling her style. She always appeared so well put together. When she was casual, she looked so effortlessly beautiful. It appeared that pearl earrings were a constant motif in her lovely wardrobe. I decided I wanted a pair of authentic pearl earrings.

I'm currently saving up for the perfect pair. I find that the best place to shop for fine jewelry is online, specifically at online superstores. I can't wait until I'm in a position to purchase my classic pair of pearl earrings.

My Favorite: Cubic Zirconia Earrings

Fri, 01 Jan 2010 23:05:03 GMT

I simply adore my brand new cubic zirconia earrings. The great thing is, no one can tell the difference between my cubic zirconia earrings and the real deal.

I'm the kind of girl that's all about the basics. I love wearing all black because it's easy and minimal. Dressing up in the morning is a cinch. Everything matches and I automatically look chic and sophisticated due to the color choice. One of my friends commented that I never wore any jewelry, so I decided to look for a staple piece for my wardrobe. That's when I decided on cubic zirconia earrings. They match everything and are completely appropriate for any occasion.

Being a savvy bargain shopper, I knew I had to find my cubic zirconia earrings at the lowest price possible. My friends, thought I was absolutely impossible because I was already getting an amazing deal for not choosing diamonds. I decided to do a bit of online research to find the cheapest possible deal on cubic zirconia. Low and behold, I found the best bargain at an online superstore.

Fashion jewelry for everyone

Fri, 01 Jan 2010 18:42:16 GMT

I received some beautiful fashion jewelry for Christmas. I love my sterling silver earrings with a bit of inlay colors given to me by my mom. My good friend gave me some sterling silver drop earrings. My one son also gave me a colorful beaded necklace. Everyone close to me knows I love fashion jewelry, especially sterling silver. You can’t go wrong purchasing any fashion jewelry for friends and family. I also purchased jewelry online to give to some friends and co-workers. I can never have enough earrings and I have quite a collection now. I might have to purchase a small jewelry box to hold all of my unique jewelry earrings. As I was at a New Years Eve neighborhood party last night, I saw fashion jewelry being worn by almost everyone. I always comment on eye-catching jewelry, and I was commenting a lot last night. From beautiful rings, bracelets, necklaces to earrings, I was impressed with all I saw. Fashion jewelry can really be the final touch to your outfit and it looks good on everyone.

Adding onto a Charm Bracelet is Fun!

Sun, 29 Nov 2009 14:34:37 GMT

I always have thought the gift of a charm bracelet was a good one. I start the bracelet with a few charms that relate very personally to the recipient. For instance, when I started my daughter's charm bracelet I attached a camera, cell phone and dive character. Those are all things she is either participating in or interested in. She really liked the charm bracelet and has actively added more charms of her own.

I also started my sister with a charm bracelet. Now on hers, I placed a miniature gemstone marking the birth of her son, an artists paint palate and a book. My sister is a very talented artist and she likes to read. She also liked her charm bracelet very much. Every once in a while she will add a new charm. She is moving more slowly on hers than my daughter but it is coming along.

My own charm bracelet is pretty full. Because you see, every time I get one for someone else I have to buy a new charm for my own. I mean, as long as I am at the store and all...afterall, adding to a charm bracelet is fun!

Cubic Zirconia pendant

Thu, 19 Nov 2009 21:21:54 GMT

I was at a family wedding recently and saw many cousins, aunts and uncles who I don’t see that often. It was great to see everyone all decked out and looking good. While I was catching-up with one cousin, I noticed her diamond pendant necklace. I have always loved the diamond pendant fashion jewelry. She let me see it up close and it was beautiful with small diamonds in a circular shape in 14ct white gold. It was all she needed to finish off her pretty outfit. My cousin whispered in my ear that the pendant was cubic Zirconia. I was shocked, it looked like real diamonds to me. I have never seen cubic Zirconia up close, so I was really examining it. The quality was there and it just looked fabulous. Her boyfriend had bought it for her not long ago, telling her one of these days, he will buy her a real diamond pendant. My cousin and I agree, there is no need. Cubic Zirconia fashion jewelry is gorgeous and it saves you so much money. I’ll have to put a bug in my husband’s ear on how much I loved that cubic Zirconia fashion pendant.

The Sterling Silver Turtle Necklace

Mon, 09 Nov 2009 08:25:19 GMT

My family spends every summer in San Diego. My brother and his family meet us there and we share a condo on the beach for one week. It is something we have done for over twenty years and we look forward it. During our visit we go to the local attractions. We also celebrate the summer birthdays. One of which is mine.

There was a summer that my nephew wanted to buy a gift himself for his aunt, that would be me. He spent his own money and picked out some sterling silver jewelry at a gift shop in one of those local attractions. He was so excited to give the present to me that he could have burst.

When it came time for cake, ice cream and gifts he was right there with a pretty pink wrapped package. I graciously accepted it, saved the frilly ribbon and gently ripped open the small box. Inside I found a sterling silver turtle necklace. It was very touching. My nephew stepping right up helped me to put it on. I wore it the remainder of the vacation.

I have made a point to clean that sterling silver necklace and wear it every year during our San Diego visit since then. My nephew is older now, he doesn't say anything about the sterling silver necklace but I know he notices his aunt wearing it.

Pearl Earrings and Necklace

Thu, 05 Nov 2009 16:56:20 GMT

My cousin and his wife recently go married in Hawaii. It was a gorgeous scenic wedding. His wife, Natalia, has excellent taste, so she took the liberty of choosing bridesmaid dresses and bridal jewelry that could be used for years to come. Unlike other brides who claim a horrendous dress can be used more-than-once, Natalia was right this time around.

Natalia chose convertible dresses for her bridesmaids. These dresses could be worn in a countless number of ways. For example, the dress could change from a skirt to a halter dress- and even into a tube dress. She chose a flattering color on everyone: light blue. Natalia also chose bridal jewelry for her bridesmaids. She picked pearl necklaces and pearl earrings for her bridesmaids to wear. Not only could they get more use in the future, her bridesmaids all looked incredibly classy for the wedding. I especially loved the pearl earrings, I felt I could definitely wear something like that anywhere.

As a guest, I wondered where I could get my own pearl earrings. I approached the bride and asked her where she found them. She said she shopped online. She went from browsing to checkout in no time. For a bride, she had a stress free experience shopping for pearl necklaces and pearl earrings from the comfort of her own home.

The Tahitian Pearl Earrings I Want

Mon, 19 Oct 2009 05:57:33 GMT

My husband asked me to write a list of Christmas gifts that I would like to receive this year. Included on that list is a pair of diamond and Tahitian pearl earrings that I have been eyeing for the past several months. Why do I want this particular pair of pearl earrings? Well there are several reasons why this particular pair of pearl earrings appeals to me. First of all I like the green black color of the Tahitian pearl, which would match well with the clothes I have in my wardrobe. Added to that I like the contemporary design of the pair of pearl earrings I have been looking at. They are more modern than plain stud pearl earrings. I also think that the pearl earrings I like are extremely elegant and stylish. They could be worn both with a casual outfit and with formal dress. I do not know if my husband will buy me the pearl earrings this Christmas. If he does not I will simply include them on future lists that he asks me to make in the hope that sooner or later he will take the hint and buy them for me.

Fashion Jewelry is a Statement

Mon, 12 Oct 2009 21:52:09 GMT

I buy many different types of fashion jewelry for many different occasions. I am in a band for instance. On stage attire is required to be a little outside of the box. The fashion jewelry I use on stage is mostly sterling silver bracelets and the occasional wrist bands. I have found that sterling silver bracelets are very versatile and can be worn on many occasions. In my professional life outside of the crazy hustle and bustle of the entertainment industry I wear different forms of fashion jewelry to compliment my attire. When I meet with clients I will wear a watch –usually sterling silver—giving a look that says “I know what I’m talking about.” You also have a look of self confidence when complimented with fashion jewelry such as a watch or sterling silver bracelet in business settings. Fashion jewelry compliments your everyday life causing people to hold you to a higher standard. Fashion jewelry is a statement for any look you are going for. I have found that buying fashion jewelry online is the best route to take; at least it is for me. I don’t like waiting in lines, and I work a lot so I don’t have a lot of time to get to the store any way. I really like that the fashion jewelry arrives at my door step. Not to mention the fashion jewelry always arrives in a timely manner.

Getting Happy With Fashion Jewelry

Fri, 02 Oct 2009 21:47:31 GMT

We all have our little things that tend to pick us up whenever we are feeling a little bit down and for many of us fashion jewelry is the thing to do it. There is just something about fashion jewelry that lifts the spirits of those who lay their eyes upon the beauty of fashion jewelry. In fact, a lot of people get the happy vibes by simply getting online in search for fashion jewelry. One of my female best friends says that, for her, going online sifting through all the excellent pieces of fashion jewelry works just as good as a melt-softly-in-your-mouth piece of smooth and sweet milk chocolate. She cannot explain how this happens to her but she sure loves the fact that it does. I think there is something about beauty that tends to lift the emotions of everyone in its presence and that’s why we love art so much. Well, if one day you decide to go online and peruse through all the fashion jewelry options out there, you will find that there is an abundance of beauty in fashion jewelry. Just last week, while at my friend’s house, I saw a sterling silver necklace that has my happy hormones going crazy all over the place.

My Daughters Cubic Zirconia Fashion Statement

Thu, 24 Sep 2009 07:26:04 GMT

My daughter was flashing her cubic zirconia ring to everyone. She loves it. It all started with her getting a summer job. She saved money all summer, putting most of her paycheck into a savings account for school. Her friends were going out and partying while she was working and saving. I was impressed at how seriously she took her job. So was her boss. When the school year started she was offered a weekend position that would not interfere with her school work. She accepted it and has kept up her school work and even took on extra shifts to help people at work. I told her she has done a great job and should treat herself at least once. I thought she would buy some clothing, go to a movie with friends or get an MP3 player. Nope she ordered a cubic zirconia ring she had been admiring. Her friends all think the cubic zirconia ring is very fashionable and have asked their parents for one. My daughter told me it does not matter if they all end up with the same ring as her, she is the only one who earned and paid for it herself. That is always going to make her cubic zirconia fashion ring special.

Using Fashion Jewelry to Compliment Band Image

Tue, 15 Sep 2009 20:33:19 GMT

Being in a band these days, whether you are a guy or a girl, you need to always be conscious of the fashion jewelry that you wear. For me, being the lead singer of a group has prompted me to buy loads of fashion jewelry over the past few years. My favorite kinds of male fashion jewelry consist of bracelets, wrist cuffs and necklaces. I have found, however, that after buying tons of fashion jewelry over the past few years that I have actually become quite hooked on the process. Since I only shop online for the fashion jewelry that I desire – as I tend to find the best prices, quality and selection, not to mention the convenience of shopping at home – getting my hands on hot accessories is rather easily done. Most often, I find myself looking at newer pieces so that I have more selection for style and image online. I usually like to shop on the weekends, when I can browse from my laptop while watching TV in the living room.
