Ahhhh....jewels.

So, I was NOT a jewelry person a year ago. I didn't know where to buy good quality, cute, affordable jewelry.

Quite honestly, I felt bad buying jewelry from "those stores" at the mall...A huge necklace for $8? How is that possible? Ooooh....tiny fingers made it...that's not ok....

So, one day my friend told me she had started as a Stylist with Stella & Dot. I didn't think anything of it, but agreed to host a "trunk show" for her. She sent me the link to her website, and I fell in LOVE. I wanted everything. Right now.

I saw that you could pay $199 to sign up, and they send you your starter kit, PLUS they give you $350 in free jewelry, and the entire line at 50% off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I immediately signed up as a "Stylist".

I'm all about immediate gratification...and it has been amaaaazing! (PS- if you want to know more about being a Stylist yourself, email me at r.sd.johnson@live.com and we can chat about it.)

Here are some fav's~

Remember- when you are going for a STATEMENT piece-let it do that. And don't over-do it in other areas.

A big statement necklace like the "Nolita", should be paired with little earrings...like the "Ava Cupchain Earrings". Viola! You just updated your plain Tee & Jeans! f.a.b.
