Have Ya Joined JewelMint Yet??

I know I've already blogged about Kate Bosworth's jewelry club JewelMint, but I'm still loving it! I've been a member since March and have been 100% satisfied with my membership. For those of you who haven't joined yet and want to know what type of jewelry you can expect, here are three of my purchases:

Sweetheart Ring

This is the first piece of jewelry I ordered from the site. I think it's really unique. I love that it looks like two separate bands being held together by the heart and the little rhinestone details are so unexpected.

Versailles Earrings

I missed out on these gorgeous earrings the first time they were released, but thankfully the website brought them back last week due to popular demand. I have an all lace, cream, one-shoulder dress that was made to be paired with these earrings! 

Metal Mosaic Ring

I'm a sucker for a good statement ring. This picture doesn't really do it justice, it's truly a wearable piece of modern art. I love the drama of the squares' varying heights and how it looks handmade.

P.S. - The boxes the jewelry come in are almost as pretty as the jewelry!

**I looked around the web for a coupon code you all could use & I'm pretty sure "WELCOME50" should still work for 50% your first purchase.

Freshen Up Your Style With JewelMint

Celeb-endorsed online shopping clubs are quickly becoming all the rage and while Kim Kardashian may have started it all with ShoeDazzle, Kate Bosworth is jumping on the bandwagon with her jewelry of the month society, JewelMint.

Started by Kate & her stylist Cher Coulter, the members-only site is filled with fun & funky earrings, necklaces, rings and bracelets all priced at $29.99*. Here's a screen cap of my current showroom:

This is the third shopping club I've joined & I'm actually saving money! I've cut back my "in-person" shopping trips & limited myself to my beauty samples from Birchbox, a pair of shoes or a handbag from ShoeDazzle & a piece of jewelry from JewelMint. My total for the month is $80 -- I used to spend that in one store! Don't get me wrong, I still LOVE to go shopping, but I love getting pretty things in the mail every month even more!

The Look For Less: Treasures at Ann Taylor!

While watching one of LisaLisaD1's videos on YouTube today I was shocked to hear that an absolutely gorgeous and expensive-looking bracelet she was wearing was from Ann Taylor! Like any shopaholic would, I quickly typed www.anntaylor.com into my browser to gawk at their 51 pieces of beautiful jewelry! 

To my delight they're having a BOGOHO sale right now (just use code SUMMER50 at checkout) so I picked up a couple items for myself. Here are 3 amazing dupes I found for some well known, high-end pieces:

*Rebecca Minkoff was wearing this exact bracelet when I met her & I've lusted after it ever since!

My Mother's Day Wish List

My "B.E.F.F." (best e-friend forever), Lluvia, recently blogged about her Mother's Day wish list and I thought it was a cute idea to share with my readers!

I only want one thing for Mother's Day this year and since my son is only 2 years old, I guess I'll have to buy it for myself!

Introducing the Dalla Nonna calendar necklace:

I first discovered Dalla Nonna jewelry in the Valentine's Day issue of Teen Vogue and then again in People Style Watch a few weeks later.  I love the vintage feel and the uniqueness of commemorating a date that is special to you. (I would get my son's birthday, March 25th)

They come in 14k rose, yellow and white gold as well as sterling silver and range from $125 to $615. You can customize them with a variety of gemstones and can choose up to two dates in a particular month. They also sell calendar bracelets which are strung on your choice of colorful faux suede.

Mommys - What special treat do you want for Mother's Day this year??

Weekly Spotlight: My Favorite Websites

So my idea for a "weekly" website tip is turning into more of a "monthly" thing...

This month I'm spotlighting GirlProps.com! I don't order from them as much as I used to, but they're a great place to find cute jewelry at super low prices. They always send their items in a cute zebra print gift bag with matching tissue paper! Here's a few of my favorites (nothing below costs more than $9.99):
