Those that are close to me know my love of unique wooden jewelry and have brought me back some gorgeous pieces from around the world whenever they traveled.  However, I never had a wooden watch or was even aware such stylish timepieces even existed until a rep from JORD sought me out for this review.

I  wasn't kidding about my passion for wood jewelry. 

Though I was debating over a few possibilities, I finally went with the Sully Series Natural Green women’s watch because it looked trendy with that bigger face that is so hot for now along with that carved and detailing around it, giving it striking character that further attracted me.

You can have a wood link or two or how many you need removed to fit, if you need it.  JORD adjusted  mine and you get the links back as well or you can get this done at your jeweler.

The thick wooden natural green band was fresh and unusual with its striped look that would set off an outfit to give it a playful vibe.  I knew that I would have fun with that aspect.

Here's a close up of my Sully Natural Green wood watch.  Look at  how big those numbers are for easy reading.

This chunky watch was so versatile and flattering that in my rush to try it on, and I forgot to take off the tiny wood disc with their logo attached to the band.  It had a deployment buckle that you had to push in two places to secure it on your wrist.

I love how fashion-foward this JORD Sully Natural Green wood watch is.  Look at what it does for my wrist.

Yet, this watch was more than a bold statement piece to amp up almost any outfit. My new JORD Sully Natural Green wood watch was a classically styled timepiece built with precision and a Citizen Miyota Quartz Movement.  Though it was waterproof, this watch also could survive if accidentally splashed or if I got caught in the rain with it on without worrying that it would be ruined.  

Anyone that appreciates standing out in the crowd needs a JORD watch.  I know that I love the originality of wearing that piece that will garnish the most attention from how different it is from the ordinary.  I already have my eye on their Cora series Koa & Rose Gold watch, which is somewhat smaller. 

What about you?  Are you ready to turn some heads?  If so, you can take my lead and follow me to JORD's website to do more browsing!

Anjolee Jewelry Is What Beautiful Jewelry Dreams Are Made of!

*This is a sponsored post written by me on the behalf on Anjolee..*

When it comes to that unsurpassed feeling of elegance, there is nothing like beautifully set diamonds to make this woman giddy with pleasure. A stunning jewelry creation like the pieces that I have been drooling over at Anjolee, the online fine jewelry website, is like walking through a candy store with one delicious treat after the next ready to tempt you!

What sets this San Diego, California-based company apart is the how easy it can be to customize a selection.  Once you see a design you like, you choose the metal setting of white gold, yellow gold or maybe platinum before deciding the length, size and quality of the stone.  Every choice affects the price, which appears instantly on the screen each time you customize.  However, if you let yourself get carried away with too expensive a piece, you just make a change to the size, clarity, metal or length,  and watch the price drop when you press the button again for that final price.

When Anjolee asked if I would like to write about what they had to offer, I thought what could be more fun than going on a “virtual” shopping spree with an unlimited budget to buy whatever my heart desires from their exquisite collection of necklaces and pendants, earrings, bracelets, wedding and anniversary rings-–at least for now.  

I am obsessed with necklaces and pendants above all.  Therefore, this was the first stop at Anjolee. Though I can still be admiring and adding more to my cart, I narrowed the treasures that I longed for down to a select two to share with you.  

Meet my new love, the Gemstone Center Horizontal Diamond Pendant Style No.: SP66-Gem1. The simplicity of this design, with the artful way the diamonds flank the sapphire, is breathtaking and so tastefully done.

As magnificent as that piece, I also adored quite a few others.  Next, I picked out the Shooting Star Diamond Pendant Style No.: SP20.  This is so delicate and refined without being over the top.

Though I could spend all day browsing Anjolee's necklace and pendant section, I also had to check out their bracelets.  Instantly, I was drawn to the Vintage Quad Square Diamond Bracelet Style No.: SB886, which is understandable as you can see from the photo.

I was about to leave that page, but my eyes kept getting pulled back. I had to have the 
Round and Baguette Diamond Bracelet Style No.: B330 as well or be mad at myself for walking away.  Don't you think this one is just as precious?

All that beauty before me was making me heady, however, I needed the Perfect Diamond Strand Necklace Style No.: SN863, which would make the perfect statement piece.  I found it glorious in its classic styling.

If you're planning on getting married, Anjolee has superb bridal sets to dress up that ring finger.  Look at the Woven Band Princess Diamond Bridal Set Style No.:  MS210.  This made my heart flutter with excitement.

Besides incredible selection, the company also has helpful customer service and a wonderful thirty-day warranty.  If you are not satisfied with your purchase during that time that begins the date you receive the order from Anjolee, you can return it for a full refund.  

When you're in the market for custom fine diamond jewelry, make it a point to visit Anjolee
Trust me, but your head will spin too once you start looking through their lovely jewelry.

ThirdLove Lingerie T-Shirt Bra and Mesh Boyshort Panty for Style and Perfect Fit! (Review)

ThirdLove Lingerie

Lingerie can be tricky to buy.  After all, bras and panties differ in sizing with each manufacturer.  If you’re like me and hate making a trip to the store and stripping down just to test the fit of underwear, you are going to love ThirdLove, an online lingerie boutique, and their system of helping you get the perfect fit.

There are two methods to get your ideal measurements.  You can do it the old-fashioned way of taking out the measuring tape from your sewing box and hope it was accurate. However, this company modernized the process with their free phone app that uses computer image recognition in effect to figure out your best bra size.  To find out more on the technology, ThirdLove has a video that explains how easy and more precisely you can be fitted.

When I was browsing through their selection and trying to decide among all their tempting styles from European-inspired lace, memory foam for your bust to the lovely wireless bra styles to their sexy panties, I noticed they cater to both the full-figured to the lesser endowed woman and even to those in between with “half-sizes.”  With all that going for ThirdLove, I had my work cut out for me in my attempt to pick out a bra and panty for this review.

Here is my new ThirdLove T-shirt Bra with Pleasted Straps.

The first item I choose was the 24/7 T-shirt Bra with the Pleated  Straps ($64) in the nude color.  This one has memory foam cups with soft micro jersey fabric for how it can provide that desired smooth silhouette.  It also has an under wire, which I neglected to pay attention to when I ordered, which is surprisingly comfortable and did not bite into the rib cage as some under wires can.   Seriously, I was shocked at how right on the fit was without trying the bra on first.  By the way, none of ThirdLove’s bras state a size if you are looking for one.

As to the panty, I picked up a  sexy number with their Mesh Boyshort  ($10) in naked.  Before I placed my order, I was advised by one of their helpful customer service representatives to go with the next larger size since this almost see through beige panty runs small.  Her wonderful forethought saved me from getting the wrong fit.

Look at how beautifully sheer the fabric of my new ThirdLove Mesh Boyshort is.

After this hassle-free shopping experience, I know that I definitely intend on putting this company to the test again to test if this perfect sizing was a fluke or will repeat itself in another style or two.  

If you too are fed up wasting your time in dressing rooms, I think you owe it to yourself to give ThirdLove a try.  Trust me, but I am confident you will love them!
