Hopelessly Heather

Customers still need their Avon, so on Monday I delivered CONTACTLESS, but still looked fly in Avon’s Modern Pink Y Necklace and Earring Set!

This Y necklace has a solid weight to it, so it stayed in place a whole lot better than lighter ones have–YAY!  The earrings are a light/medium weight, so they don’t drag on the lobe, but they don’t fly free in the wind either–perfect!  

I love that the stones are shaped different and aren’t perfect–it definitely makes them appear more natural.  Some folks like the see-through stones, and I would, if only I didn’t have a yellow-ish skin tone–it always skews the stone’s color.  In this case, the pink tried to hold on a bit instead of turning peach, though it does lose the battle in certain lighting.  That is purely a me issue though, which could be remedied by wearing clothing that would back it up rather than letting it rest directly on my skin.  

Another grey Monday working from home, but at least my earlobes sparkle in Avon’s Sparkling CZ Crawler!

I really love the idea of ear crawlers but, in practice, I find them a bit awkward looking on me.  Like many of my other features, I have smaller ears, with fat lobes.  I felt like these were about one stone too long to look “right” on my lobes.  I’d probably love them on someone who has larger ears.  I had to pull the “stem” out to accommodate my fat lobes, which I found to be a little scary–it wasn’t as sturdy as I’d have liked, and I fear that if I bend it too many times, it will break right off.  That said, the crawlers by themselves are deliciously sparkly and really are cool to look at!

Last Saturday was a double date night in Avon’s Flower Burst Wire Necklace and the bloom studs from the Assorted Floral Earring Pack!
While the wire “chain” for the necklace is figid and lays awkwardly, it really is the perfect delivery system for the giant pendant–it doesn’t distract at all from the showstopper. Throughout the workday, all my coworkers couldn’t help but notice it–even the dudes! While stately, it is rather large, so not all outfits would work with it. The adorable studs were a perfect yang to the necklace’s yin–small, understated, but beautiful all on their own.

I glammed up my lobes to go listen to my bestie perform last Sunday night in the flower studs in Avon’s Holiday Glamour Stud Earring Duo (unfortunately, they are no longer for sale)!

These daisies won’t ever die–and they are perpetually in style with a super art deco feel to them!  They are modernized by their black setting, but that’s where the modern touches end.  From there, it’s all 1960s peace and love, man.
