Valentine's Day

February 14 is just right around the corner, and what woman isn't thinking about a little bit of jewelry? Whether this would be for your special someone or maybe a treat for yourself, all women deserved to get pampered (:

I've only been designing gold jewelry lately.  Gold may not be for everyone, but I've been obsessed with how beautifully it pairs with semi-precious stones and pearls.


Aphrodite Necklace
 This is my newest necklace, which I absolutely adore. It features a long 28" figure 8 gold fill chain and a small polished hammered circle within a large matte hammered hoop. The 1.75" pendent is accented with a faceted lavender quartz drop, faceted rose quartz drop, pearl, and clear semi-precious stone (that sadly I can't remember what it's called!). I don't know whether or not I can part with this.


Sangria Earrings
As a fan of red wine, I love sangria. I would say these earrings will also be a delicious treat - but for your ears! Milk & Honey in Santa Barbara, CA makes sangria to die for. If you're around the area, it's the perfect place to stop by for tapas and drinks.


Dreamer Earrings
Let your spirits run free and let your dreams take flight with these Bohemian earrings. Indulge your desires; you never know where life may take you next. Do what you love and love what you do. This is the essence of these earrings.

Pastel Rose Bud Studs
Every girl needs a pair of delicate rose bud studs. They're feminine and sweet, and they go with every outfit. Simplicity is key to looking effortlessly chic. These are my favorite pair of earrings, and I wear the lighter pink ones almost every day. In time I'm sure I'll personally own all the colors because they're all so irresistibly adorable.
