Hopelessly Heather

The ramblings and obsessions of a longtime Avon lady

Monday was my last day of staycation, but I also had to attend a video meeting for work, so I slapped on Avon’s Western Wind Statement Earrings for the wow factor!

I wasn’t overly excited about these based on the pic in the brochure, but when I cracked open the box, my eyes nearly fell out of my head.  These things are amazeballs!!  First things first, they are a medium to heavy weight, so I broke out my magic earring backers to help prop up these beauties as they ought to be supported.  Now that the business out of the way, I’m going to gush about these a little more!   I was concerned wearing these would look out of place with anything other than a cowboy hat, but I was dead wrong.  While they definitely have a western flair to them, they more than hold their own when paired with trendy fashion.  Despite being fairly sizable, they don’t overpower any look–mostly because they have a burnished finish.  I never imagined I would be putting these babies in my “must wear again” jewelry box, but they definitely earned their place among my other faves!

Staycationing this week meant a nice, slow start to my weekdays! Monday was grocery shopping and running errands day, which isn’t sexy stuff, but was definitely made sexier in Avon’s Sterling Silver Everyday Necklace and the medium studs from their Sparkling Scroll Earring Set!

When there are multiple charms on a necklace, the smaller charm should not be behind the larger charm.  What on earth were they thinking?!   [insert exasperated eye roll here]  That’s just a serious design flaw–and ruined this necklace completely for me.  On the flip side, the earrings were a lovely surprise!  I thought the earring set was pretty enough, but didn’t really expect much out of it, but the larger earrings are very nicely sized and the medium set (which I thought I’d hate due to the shape) ended up being the first ones I wore!  They certainly brought the sparkle the necklace lacked, but weren’t so sparkly that they looked mismatched with a casual tee.
