Coral

How many other people fell in love with the coral color last spring?

And how many are thrilled it's in this spring too?

I LOVE coral! The only problem is that I could never find a cute coral top! I finally found some great nail polish, then I realized Premier has pieces with Coral in them ... duh.

I wore this for our first evening Bible study at our house.



The earrings are called Cabana and were a birthday gift from Brent, and the necklace is called Tangerine, and was a birthday gift from me. The necklace is a long strand that I've doubled. The earrings were a little on the heavy side for me, but since we only had company for a few hours, I didn't have to wear them too long.

We are doing the Love and Respect book study in our group. If you've never read that book before and are married, I highly suggest it. It's so true and practical. We are so excited to study this book with a group and see what God does in our marriages!

Teal & Brown

This dress is the first thing I've ever seen on a mannequin in a store's window and bought. It's so cute and I love wearing it! It's a great spring color and fabric - light jersey material that's so comfortable.

I was torn between wearing the Organic necklace and bracelet and the Wow Factor necklace. My husband got me Wow Factor for my birthday and I hadn't worn it yet, so I went with it instead.



I'm wearing the necklace with pearl stud earrings (Premier has some, but mine came from my dad) and the White Hot watch. I love the Wow Factor necklace because it is so versatile. You can wear it without a twist, really twisted, or just a little bit twisted like I have it on. You can also choose one chain and wear it long by putting that chain over your head and letting the rest hang down. You can also add a pin, like Golden Girl for a more sparkly look.

Wow Factor has matching earrings and bracelet, but I don't have those yet.

Jewelry Party!

I'm going to my first jewelry party with my new spring jewelry. I just LOVE the new line.

Unfortunately, I don't actually get to wear any of it to the show since I'll be using all of it for demos. But it's okay, the ladies love modeling it, and sometimes it's more fun to watch someone else wearing my jewelry than to wear it myself :)



Yellow and grey came out as a popular combination last spring, but I still love it. I am wearing a yellow dolman top with a grey undershirt, the White Hot watch, the Naomi ring, and the Runway necklace and earrings. I love this necklace, and the earrings are light enough for me to wear all day. This is a great necklace for plain shirts and to help you look long and lean. Long necklace and scarves are two of the best ways to look taller and longer.

By the way, a lot of men love this necklace. It's my husband's favorite. He calls it the tire necklace, because the thinks the little circles look like tires. Weird.

Anyway, this is one of my favorite necklaces because it's so easy to wear. You don't have to worry about matching any colors and it looks great on just about anything.

We had a great show and my hostess got almost $500 in free jewelry! I couldn't believe it! I think she had a hard time picking all of her jewelry, but her wardrobe is set for spring.

Valentine's Day

We usually don't do much for Valentine's Day because my birthday just happened. This year, it fell on a Thursday and I had church, so I left a gift box for Brent.


Lots of fun things for a guy spending an evening waiting for his wife to come home!

He made me this:



So creative :)

Valentine's Day is a great time to ask your man for some jewelry! I always encourage the ladies at my shows to tell their men what jewelry they like for gift ideas. I'm even making a card now for them to fill out so I can contact their guys for a few last minute gift ideas.

It's my Birthday

Birthday time!

Over dinner with my husband a couple of weeks ago, I told him I was excited about turning 25 so I could start renting cars. He laughed at me and told me I'm turning 24. I had to pull out my calculator, and sure enough, I'm turning 24.

I feel like I got a whole year of my life back!

Anyway, Brent took me to a VEEEERRRY nice dinner at Ray's on the River in Atlanta. If you haven't been there, make reservations way ahead of time and try to sit by the window so you can see the river. It looked like it was beautiful outside, and they had a walking trail by the river, but since it's February and freezing, we just admired it from our table.


Here we are :) I got this dress from H&M this past summer, but never got to wear anywhere. I have on a retired piece by Premier I bought for half price before joining. I'm also wearing the Jet earrings and the Jules ring, but they are somewhat difficult to see. I love pairing bright colors with black jewelry, especially in winter. My mom laughs at me for seasonalizing my jewelry, but it's just as valid a part of your wardrobe as anything else!

Brent ate a steak and it was delicious, and I had a whole bunch of seafood. Scallops, shrimp, lobster tail, crab cakes, and salmon. Yum!! Our waiter was fabulous and we even got to do valet parking! It was wonderful.

Congratulations Mary!

Hello, and welcome to my blog! This is my first post, and also the outfit I wore for the training show of my first Premier daughter, Mary! 

I met Mary at her sister's Premier party. Mary was interested in doing something more glamorous than her house-cleaning business, and what could be more glamorous than jewelry? After Christmas, she called me to say she wanted to join the family.

I am wearing my husband's old t-shirt that I refashioned into a dress, brown leggings, and a brown long sleeve shirt. I have on the White Hot watch (almost always) and the amazing Francesca necklace from Premier's spring line. The necklace does have matching earrings, but my ears don't do dangling earrings very well, so I just wore a pair of diamond studs, which match the sparkles in one of the silver circles on the necklace.


This necklace is really cool. It has silver and antique-looking brassy gold. Two-toned jewelry is really popular this spring, and I couldn't be happier. We don't have to choose which color to wear, we just get to wear both! Yay!

Anyway, the necklace has a long chain for the back and clasps onto one of the circles. You can also shorten it by looping the chain through the circle and clasping it back onto itself, as I have done here.
