*Loving* Alex and Ani Bracelets - Charity by Design


Alex and Ani Bracelets - Charity by Design

For the past few months I have been OBSESSED with Alex and Ani bracelets. If you haven't heard about them they are a company that creates STUNNING (average of $24-$38 per bracelet) jewelry all made out of eco-friendly materials with an emphasis on positive energy and charity. 

My favorite items are the charm bracelets (all expandable so they can fit everyone!) due to the large amount of symbols they have to offer which makes each piece you purchase so much more than just a fashion statement. 

I currently own the puzzle piece, which represents my oldest son who is Autistic, the Phoenix, Water Droplet, and my initial. All bracelets come in a choice of silver and Russian gold and they are all made in America. They also have earrings, key chains, rings, rhinestone bracelets, etc. 
Honestly speaking, I really haven't seen any piece that I don't like! 

You can purchase these beauties in person at Nordstrom, Bloomingdales, and Alex & Ani stores. The best places to purchase them on-line are at Zeeberry and of course alexandani.com


A couple of my bracelets - The Water Droplet came with a $5 gift card that can be applied to the location of your choice so they  receive clean drinking water for people in desperate need. 

The Alex & Ani story - Please go visit the website to find out more!

NYX Blues - Swatches & Product Photos

I, along with many, am a big fan of NYX Cosmetics. I find this company to be the most affordable and best quality makeup line in drugstores. In addition to the great price and high quality, they offer a HUGE selection of various shades of eye shadows, lipsticks, lip gloss, blush, etc. There is definitely something out there for every look and every one!

See below for some product photos and swatches of some of my favorite NYX blue tones shadows. Typically I am not a fan of blue ES but these are very pretty :)(Click on the pic to see a close-up)
