Dangle Ear Love

I adore these Kira Silver dagger rhinestones dangles from the KL Collection.  Set with a rhinestone stud and set in silver, with a post back. Perfect for a night out on the town. A must have for any diva's jewelry box.



Brielle Necklace By Harriet Grey

This beautiful Brielle Necklace By Harriet Grey is stunning. This piece has 28 thin gold chains drape in three sections to form the Brielle necklace. A statement piece that works from the boardroom to the country club dining room. 


Get Cuffed Up!

Orange and gold combined to make the Divyah Cuff a must have for summer. Wear it with your favorite sundress and brighten your day. Designed by Lara Hennessey.

Expert of Beauty: The Blog

Beauty Expert, Make Up Artist, and Beauty Blogger Monica,  is a true make up artist at heart. I had the pleasure of befriending this awesome woman through a mutual friend. I truly enjoy her beauty blog, her love for make-up artistry and her style. Monica's Expert of Beauty blog is filled with beauty tips and ideas.  In the words of Monica, "I don't believe make-up defines you, however I do believe just a touch of it will boost your confidence and have you feeling a certain sense of SEXY.  We all know that when you looking fabulous you feel fabulous!”

Cluster

Small stones or pearls arranged a larger stone in a setting.

Freshwater pearls

Pearls cultivated in mollusks, not oysters, and found in fresh, warm water. Generally elongated in shape (though they can be a range of shapes), they have a milky, translucent appearance.
