Summer is my favorite time of year. I love the summer warm temperatures, the long days and the fun things you can do in all that time! It’s a time when you can wear more clothing (or less) than normal and play more with accessories to score fashion points. I felt it might be great to curate some jewelry that I thought were a great tonal match for spring/summer 2014.. (I know spring is LONG gone. The idea is for next year as well as other seasons when LBD or outfits of neutrals need some “juice” or bite) . Wherever you see Sobral jewelry, don’t hesitate to buy it because pieces don’t last long in retail stores or online!

I was gifted a JORD Fieldcrest watch. That in no way affects my decision to feature this brand nor does it impinge on my impartiality. What’s truly interesting is that JORD offered me a watch and I was not sure I should take it. However the unique presentation, the quality of the timepiece and the affordable price eventually convinced me I should test drive this watch. I am glad I did. It’s a great watch: lightweight, accurate and beautiful.
This series will return with other jewelry brands as well as shoes, bags and other accessories.
