I had my first opportunity to see Stella & Dot jewelry last fall. My friend Sherra clued me in about this “up and coming” company a few months earlier. When I looked at the website, I wasn’t sure it was my style. I love jewelry. I enjoy checking out new things so when another friend Leigh Anne had her party, I was game!
Stella and Dot consultant Nancy Conway traveled from Fresno, California to show us the jewelry. Immediately I could see the photos didn’t do it justice. I loved it and had a very hard time deciding what to get! I was in major debate. Stella & Dot does a great job of mixing it up. Their jewelry is unique with gold and silver equally represented. Their designers also do a beautiful job of adding many different elements (pearls, chains, crystals and ribbons) Some designs are inspired by vintage pieces found at flea markets, others are trendy & very contemporary. The combinations are fabulous (as is the packaging)! Thank you Nancy, Heather and Leigh Anne for modeling!
Celebrities have been featured wearing pieces in almost every magazine from In Style to Lucky. Stella and Dot is known for “statement pieces”. My definition of a statement piece is a necklace that does just that—makes a statement! When you are wearing a statement piece, the eye is drawn up to that necklace. Statement piece necklaces are usually bold in style or color, are a bit “chunky” with lots of detail. This is one of my favorite tactics for steering the eye away from a flaw.
Don’t see anything you love quite yet? I’d say Stella & Dot’s biggest selling point is choice. If you like jewelry that is more dainty or not quite so bold–they have that too. I believe it’s all about choice when it comes to style, size and metal. Stella & Dot offers it all! Prices range from $20-200 with half the catalog being under $50
In January I convinced my friend Mollie to consider selling Stella & Dot. She was so impressed with every aspect of the company. She couldn’t stop talking about it. To seal the deal, I told her to give Sherra a call. Mollie signed under Nancy and already has her own recruit. I’m pretty sure she is happy she listened to Sherra & I.
It’s so much fun to help other women get started. Now for the Giveaway!
