What Would Peggy Do?

What says cool? Peggy Lipton, that's what! She is one of our all time fashion inspirations. We love her and the way she has always seemed to make style look effortless. We mean that in a good way, of course.

You know how you can look back at some old photos of your self and say did I really think I was Alexis Carrington? Or, my makeup could have won first prize at a Halloween party! Or, MC Hammer pants...REALLY???!!! Well, we know the feeling and we're guessing that Miss Peggy Lipton doesn't share the same problem. The girl is timeless.

The moral of the story here is when deciding what you want to adorn your body with, follow this simple rule: Am I going to be happy ten years from now when I pull out an old photo and see myself wearing it? If that doesn't work for you, just do what we do. Would Peggy wear this?

The Winner Of The Giveaway Is...

We are very happy to announce that Ally Roy is the winner of the GIVEAWAY!!! Ally will be receiving this Chalcedony, Pink Sapphire, Bone Carved Tusk & Peace Charm Necklace, with retail value of $165.

A special thanks to everyone who participated! XO

Inspired By...

The UPS driver delivered this today from one of our awesome customers. Kathe C. told us that she was so inspired by the necklace that she bought from us that it made her want to break out a canvas and begin painting again.

This is the painting that she did on the day that her necklace arrived. How cool is that???!!! And how cool is she for sending it to us as a gift???!!! Love it, love it, love it.

You never know what or who will inspire you and when it happens, it feels so good. Such a high! There is nothing better than a fresh dose of inspiration. Personally, we'd be lost without it. And out of business! 

We are so grateful for getting to take part in inspiring someone in any way. There is a reason we use the color of stones that we do. For this exact reason. Such a great feeling to know when others feel the same way!

Thanks, Kathe!

Trends? Nooooo

Trend is not one of our favorite words because who has ever wanted to be thought of as trendy? Jumping on a major trend wagon is also not one of our favorite things. There is nothing wrong with adding a fresh accessory to your look, but "trending" head to toe is never a good idea.



Above is the new $80 trend for this Fall. Really?

We are all individuals and we believe that it's important to express yourself with style. It shares a little insight on who you are as an individual. Our best style advice to you is to not become trendy. Find ways of setting yourself apart from the rest. We know that this takes courage for some people because sometimes you don't always have faith in your style choices. But have faith! Go with your instincts and what makes you feel good. Don't make rules up for yourself. A lot of people do this. "I'm too short for that," or "My neck isn't long enough." It is really amazing actually, how many rules people make for themselves. Trust us, we've heard them all. It's time to free yourself of rules.

The way we design is by making things that are not trendy but instead, timeless. That way you can wear a piece for a while, put it away for a little bit and then rediscover that same piece by falling in love with it all over again. Isn't it fun when you get to go shopping in your own closet or jewelry box and get to find an old friend? We love this! It makes investing in an item you truly love priceless because you will enjoy it for years to come.

So, the message of the day is don't be trendy...Be yourSELF!

Gratitude

We would like to show our gratitude to our fans on Facebook so we are offering a 20% discount on all jewelry today and tomorrow! To get the discount code click here. Love you all so much and thank you!!! XO

The Fun Is Over

I guess that all fun things must come to an end. Vacation and family time ended today. They are all on a plane heading home. All that remains are smooshed Goldfish crackers, sand and half empty water bottles on the floor of my car. Gifts from my nieces and nephews:)

We went everywhere and did everything. Catalina Island, Moonlight Beach in Encinitas, Universal Studios, Hollywood tourist ssshtuff, the Farmers Market, Laguna, the ferris wheel on the Santa Monica Pier, made s'mores, resort day of swimming and lots more sssshtuff.

All in all it was very successful family time. We only had one boogie board injury that required first aid, no major fights, one cell phone lost to the sea, one wallet lost but quickly recovered by the nice people at Universal, one case of sea sickness, one cousin accidently kicking the other in the neck while swimming and I think that just about covers it. A group full of kids? I think we came out pretty good!!!























































And Last but not least, my niece wanted me to make her a dayglow peace necklace. How gorgeous of a young lady is she???!!!



Miss the family already:(
