Anjolee


Today, I'd like to introduce everyone to Anjolee, and for those of who aren't familiar with them they are high-end jewelry manufacturer. Originally, the company started selling their products to retail stores and wholesalers. However, they quickly gained recognition as a leading manufacturer of high-end diamond jewelry. Throughout the years, however their product line have expanded and now includes an exclusive bridal jewelry, rings, diamond bracelets, earrings, necklaces, and pendants.

Today, Anjolee can be found in retail stores across the United States, Canada, and on many online websites. In 2008, they launched their own website and began selling directly to consumers. The decision allows consumers to purchase directly from the manufacturer at the best price with faster delivery on all customized orders.

Although, Anjolee specializes in jewelry pieces that can be customized according to preference of metal type, diamond size, diamond/gemstone quality, and length/size.  They also offer a great selection of gemstone jewelry with choice of several birthstones.  The diamond wedding bands are a great way to select from a range of customizable jewelry, so ahead and customize a piece or pieces of jewelry.

My overall experience with navigating & customizing on Anjolee's website was a positive one. I found it very simple to maneuver around their website and it was easy to customize jewelry pieces. Also, Anjolee has an app for the I Phone which I thought was really neat as well.

Here's a photo of Anjolee's jewelry...

Look What I Got: My J Crew Striped Vest


I'm been eyeing the striped navy excursion quilted vest by J Crew for sometime now, but didn't want to pay $120 for it.  However, last year I waited for the black & white quilted herringbone vest to go on sale, and it eventually sold out.  So, this year I didn't want to make the same mistake again, so I bought my striped vest on sale for $79.99 plus shipping.  SCORE!  Maybe good things do come to those who wait ;)

Blue Skies




H&M Blazer (similar),  H&M Top (here), New York & Company Skirt (here), Floral Pumps (not available), Christian Dior Sunglasses (not available), Louis Vuitton Handbag, and Michael Kors Watch (here).


This past weekend the weather outside so beautiful, my family and I decided to go to the beach on Sunday.  Although, it was a little windy while there my boys still enjoyed themselves in the water.  So for my outfit today, I finally got a chance to wear my blue pencil skirt I bought several months ago from New York & Company.  I mean every time I took my skirt out to wear, I just couldn't find anything in my closet that I wanted to style it with.  Of course, I totally forgot about my blue blazer & yellow top from H&M.   SCORE!

So, I added a bright yellow flower to my blazer, put on my floral wedges, and carried one of Louis Vuitton handbags.

What's in My Bag?


I'm a big handbag girl and often change my handbags daily, and this particular handbag I bought recently from Old Navy.  So, in my new Old Navy handbag I'm carrying a Kikki K berry planner, a Kate Spade planner/wallet, Kleenexes, Tylenol, my I Phone 5, car keys, a pencil pouch, my coin purse, a make-up bag, and L'Ocittane hand cream.

Now, that you've seen what I carry in handbag, what do you carry in your bag?

Denim & Denim




Old Navy Top (similar), Old Navy Skinny Jeans (here), J Crew Giraffe Necklace (here), Nine West Boots (Sold Out), Christian Dior Sunglasses (similar), Michael Kors Watch (similar), Derng Tassel Bracelet (here), and Louis Vuitton Handbag. 


Since it was a beautiful day outside, I wanted to take some photos to get caught up on my outfit posts. So, for today's outfit I thought I'd keep it simple and casual by wearing two different shades of denim.  So, I decided to style my denim top with a darker colored pair of skinny jeans, I added my tall brown boots, and gold accessories.
