getting my groove back

by Nina on May 28, 2009

Good Morning!!! I’m so sorry that I’ve been absent recently but not to worry… I’m over it & we are going to focus on what we love best… Shopping, Fashion & Gift Giving! Millions of thanks to all of you for continuing to read even when I don’t bring my A-Game!

So enough about that, I’ve been obsessing over Stella & Dot jewelry ever since the day my friend, Meredith, introduced the line to me. Did you catch the correlation… Stella and getting my groove back? Bad I know but I had to laugh!

I won an initial charm in gold on the Misc Mer site earlier this year and I receive compliments on it all the time. These charms are priced at $34 & would make an adorable gift for endless occasions.

You could tie one of the charms onto the bow of a package as a personalized touch or make a necklace for a mother with her children’s initials OR buy one for yourself (story of my life… make it your’s too).

Moving right along! After many frequent visits to Meredith’s Stella & Dot site, I’ve finally landed on a few favorite pieces (key word being, f.e.w.). They are completely out of my comfort zone but I’m IN love with them. These pieces could be worn to dinner on a Saturday night or brunch on Sunday. I adore versatility… and these are just that.

The Adele Cuff priced very reasonably at $69.

resizeresize-2The Aimee Locket Necklace also at a great price point – $79.

My favorite: the “short” starfish necklace (the one with “limited availability” – of course)

Email: doesn’t this give you my email? (erinknoll at gmail dot com)

And, I like the initials, too – but, if I put one of them on a gift – I GUARANTEE that the receiver wouldn’t notice and throw away my $34 tag!!! LOL!

Have a good one!
