The fam and I flew in the face of this social distancing thing on Sunday to fete my son’s and my mom’s birthdays by breaking bread together while supporting a local restaurant! The menu included Avon’s Striped 3/4 Lace Front Top, Sterling Silver Floral Front to Back Earrings, and Glimmerkiss Liquid Lipstick in Sand Opal!
I sized up to a medium and absolutely love the relaxed fit of this top! Long enough to act as a tunic, it covers all my problem spots AND it doesn’t cling. I’m also a fan of the classic black and white striped pattern–it never goes out of style. Worth every penny!
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.
I attended my daughter’s 28th birthday brunch last Saturday in Avon’s Spring Shimmer Earrings!
While these look just fine from a distance, I am not the world’s biggest fan of the heavily faceted plastic beads/stones that are used in jewelry settings–they look cheap and obviously fake. These are heavily faceted. ::sigh:: Luckily, they don’t cover a lot of surface area, so you really do have to get super close to see them in detail. Thus, folks seeing them on me at a usual distance won’t know the difference and they won’t appear so cheap.
Monday I delivered a ton of orders on my bonus day off in Avon’s “I Am” Inspirational Necklace and one pair of studs (out of 21!!!) from the Everyday Glam Stud Earring Mega Pack! The necklace is in Avon’s Pink Hope line. A percentage of purchases of products from that line are donated to American Cancer Society to help fight breast cancer. That alone always makes me happy to support the line, but lately they’ve been knocking it out of the park with their gorgeous jewelry pieces–and this one didn’t disappoint either! Empowerment is popular nowadays, so this fits right in with that trend too. Genuine, inspirational, kind, beautiful, worthy, unique, and confident–all words we all are (or should be) described as at some point in our lives–even better if they are all at once! This would make a terrific gift for the women in your life–showering them with love, compliments, and affirmation all in one go. The earrings have a retro feel to them, and are super sparkly–a terrific pair with the necklace because of the starburst on the charm. Also, can we talk about this mega pack of earrings?! What a great set!!! I don’t think there is a single pair I won’t wear–most all of them are classic, and they mixed goldtone and silvertone pairs to suit all tastes. It would be an amazing “starter kit” for a young girl just getting her ears pierced for the first time. Even the largest pairs are still dainty enough for young uns to wear!
