Set to Shine

This post is sponsored by Anjolee.

I have been in the room when many brides open the gift from their groom.  There is no better gift than a perfect pair of diamond earrings. From dazzling hoop designs to the the most elegant of drop earrings, they are the ideal accessory.  Whether it be a bridal or anniversary gift, Anjolee has customizable jewelry to fit your personality.

Anjolee is known for customizing jewelry to the preferences of each customer. In addition to earrings, they create stunning bridal sets, gorgeous rings, and engagement rings tailored to fit each bride. 

Below are of my favorite pieces sure to make anyone look fabulous.  I love them all but this pair is definitely me!  






The trio below are great for every day!







I added a pair of ruby earrings because I think bezel is all the rage right now!


Anne Sportun Trunk Show

Not many designers can say they have their hands (or their work) on a postage stamp – but Toronto-based jewelry designer Anne Sportun can! This is the 2003 Canadian postage stamp that featured Anne with some of her pieces:

On the weekend of May 21-23, Chicago gets the chance to see Anne’s work in person at her exclusive Chicago trunk show at Virtu in Bucktown. She’ll be showcasing her bridal collection – beautiful, unique pieces made to inspire beauty in every day. Gorgeous!





Bridal Event: Erin Gallagher Grand Opening

I am not the type of girl that thinks less is more. More is more. Which is why I ADORE this necklace, Ellen. Designed by Erin Gallagher, it will be 25% off at the grand opening. That alone is reason to attend but the fact that they will be raffling off this ruby ring… well, expect me to cut to the front of the line.
