Best of Etsy: FOXY Gift Guide

November 22, 2013

Last year it was the Owl. This year the icon of the fall and holiday season is the FOX! Target made a big statement with fox merchandise for the holiday season and it seems to be selling quickly. Hum, wonder if it has anything to do what that song that is topping the music charts?

I rounded up my favorite fox themed items and are bringing them to you in the first of my Holiday Gift Guides!

Enjoy and stay foxy!

September 16, 2013

Good Morning! I hope you weekend was super. Mine was great and I got lots done around my abode and even squeezed in a little outdoor time. Did you feel the change in the air? I surely did and can’t tell you how much I’m looking forward to fall arriving in full force. One of the things that I’m most looking forward to is adding a few new pieces of jewelry to my fall wardrobe. I’ve seen such fabulous looks in all the fashion magazine and it has me in the mood to shop. Good thing one of the items on my to-do-list this week is a trip to the gift mart. Just so happens that on the 7th floor of building 3 there lies an enormous showroom full of on-trend fashion jewelry. I wish I could take pictures of the showroom to share with you but it is strictly forbidden. But I can share a look at three fall fashion trends I’ll be on the hunt for, Bold, Bling and Bodacious!

BOLD

BLING

BODACIOUS

With the jewelry trends for fall such statement pieces, you’ll only need to wear one or two pieces to complete your outfit. This is the season to Go Big, or go Home and I for one will be going BIG!

Several months ago I connected via blogland with Melanie who writes the fabulous blog Lucky and Lovely and who just happens to be a Stella and Dot representative. Melanie sent me a Stella and Dot catalog and that is when my real love affair with their product began.

In getting to know Melanie, I mentioned to her that I am on the board of directors of a non-product organization in Atlanta called The Community Assistance Center. The organization’s mission is to bring together community resources to provide compassionate assistance to persons in need, prevent homelessness, alleviate hunger and promote self-sufficiency.

One of the annual charity events for CAC is a fashion show and sale. The sale features designer fashions and accessories at bargain prices. And, this year Stella and Dot jewelry will also be included in the event. Melanie has so graciously offered to accessorize the fashion show and Stella and Jewelry will be for sale! WooHoo!

This years event is taking place June 22nd (Pre-Sale and Fashion Show) and 23rd (open shopping) in North Atlanta. Click here for all the details and location.

I’ll be there Friday evening so if you get a chance, please stop by, say hello and shop!

It’s been fun sharing Stella and Dot with you. Take a minute to check out their full catalog and make sure to stop by Melanie’s blog to say hello!

p.s. This is not a paid endorsement for Stella and Dot…just sharing the things I love with my readers!
