Leave A Comment So where do you think I went when it came to finding the perfect accent jewelry for my Holiday parties? You guess it, Fantasy Jewelry Box. I have a couple of low key holiday dinners to attend as well as some more glitzy parties where I will obviously want to make an impact with some statement jewelry! I ultimately decide that I need some bling to rock out for either my Holiday party or New Year’s and I went with the following:
Gennyfer’s Vintage Style Floral Accented Faux Purple Pearl Earrings These glamorous imitation pearl earrings have a gold tone finished setting that has been inlaid with high quality crystal stones. They really pop due to the rich setting. To contrast with the faceted stones that sparkle, you have smooth and lustrous faux pearls that complete the look beautifully.The babies are STATEMENT. I think with earrings like this it’s important to wear the earrings and not let them wear you! I have a gorgeous black Mahtab Azimi dress that I am going to wear these with. Simple and stunning dress with daring and colorful earrings make for an amazing holiday ensemble! Even in person, these earrings are gorge and that is no lie!
Some of my honorable mentions?
Kendri’s Fancy Nature Inspired Pear Shape Crystal Earrings, Carroll’s Fancy Large Black Cluster Drop Earrings, Jeri’s Fancy Rhinestone Cluster Style Silver Dangle EarringsWhat do you think? Do you love my bling or would you have chosen something different?
We were pretty much psyched when ICE.com asked us to join in the contest to be come their next Guest Stylist! Obviously, we consider ourselves to be somewhat stylish and of course, we LOVE sparkly baubles, beautiful jewelry included and that is why we LOVE ICE.com! So we were asked to pick out two of our favorite items on ICE right now and let me just tell you that there are WAY too many to choose from, but I managed to narrow it down to the following two:
Sterling Silver Black Swarovski Crystal Earrings- Dramatic black Swarovski crystals provide a striking contrast to gleaming sterling silver in these delicate heart-shaped earrings. A unique and beautiful look.
Tahitian Pearl, Black & White Diamond 14K White Gold Ring- The hottest look in jewelry, deep black diamonds get their exotic beauty from a special irradiation process. In this pretty ring, dramatic black diamonds are paired with white diamonds and a single dusky Tahitian pearl, all in a setting of cool 14K white gold. The perfect look for any occasion.
I love the simplicity but also the drama of Black and White together. Whether I planned to wear the earrings with a little black dress to a holiday party and the ring all the time, these two choices would most definitely ALWAYS be in style. Hey, even if I am not dressing up, what’s wrong with pairing these with jeans and a tee… absolutely nothing! So how do we become guest stylists at ICE.com? Well, it’s up to you guys! You can either comment on this post or “LIKE” our ICE post on Facebook and it’s considered a VOTE for us. So c’mon, help us out!

I chose the Here to Eternity Set, which let me tell you, is just lovely. Jewelmint sends their jewelry in a precious mint green box tied, literally, with a bow. Receiving this piece was quite the experience. Dainty and right up my alley, this piece is simple yet statement worthy. I received multiple compliments on how adorable this necklace and earring set is. While I know that Jewelmint prides itself on being affordable (which is awesome), they don’t compromise on quality. This set seems more expensive. Kudos Jewelmint for finding a fan in me! I have definitely become a member.

If you are a fan of Modern Family, then you are totally a fan of the sassy Sofia Vergara. She was recently spotted on The Hollywood Walk of Fame honoring Ed O’Neill wearing Adeler Jewelry worth over $20,000! I don’t know about you ladies but I don’t have $9,000 for a chunky cocktail ring… but that doesn’t mean I shouldn’t get the look.
Some of my favorite “gets” are from Nordstrom, Fantasy Jewelry Box, and Max and Chloe. Where do yo ladies like to find your celebrity looks for less?

Moms are busy! You get the children up and ready for the day, ensure the older ones get off to school with their lunches and backpacks, and you plan daily activities for the younger ones. If you are like most moms you also clean the house, do yard work, wash laundry and a zillion other things to keep your home beautiful and running smoothly. So, when you get ready in the morning, you probably choose clothing and accessories that won’t interfere with your day. It’s tough to chase toddlers while wearing heels!
Yes, moms, you are busy but that doesn’t mean you have to give up on fashion completely.
You can do all the things need to do throughout your day and still look fabulous. Perhaps it isn’t sensible to wear all the fashion accessories you would include, if you were headed out for the evening but adding a little sparkle can go a long way.
Some great additions to your everyday wardrobe would be; a diamond bracelet, diamond stud earrings and multi-colored gemstone jewelry. While these may sound like extravagant items that you would only wear if you were out on the town – they can actually be great additions to your everyday style as well.
The reason diamond bracelets for women make a perfect fashion accessory, has to do with their versatility and durability. They come in all shapes, styles and sizes; because of this they are available in a variety of price ranges. They are practical in the sense that they are timeless pieces that can be worn for many years to come. If you are hard on your jewelry, you may want to choose a bracelet in which the diamonds are bezel set – versus prong set – for added security to your stones.
Diamond stud earrings can be worn every single day. You really get your money’s worth out of them! Slip them in your ears — and away you go. No muss, no fuss, just gorgeous sparkle. They look just as amazing with jeans and a t-shirt, as they do with an expensive evening gown. They are classic, timeless, and elegant.
Multi-colored stone jewelry is another great accessory to add to your collection. They are less expensive than diamonds and come in several combinations. If you have gemstone pieces that feature several colors, it makes them more versatile and you will get a lot of wear out of them. You should consider adding an entire ensemble of colorful gems which include — earrings, a necklace, and a tennis bracelet.
Great fashion really can be simple, stylish and affordable! For more tips about customizing tennis bracelets for your wardrobe, visit the Anjolee website today!
