What is Christmas?

Hello All,

With the unprecedented year we've all had, I wanted to post a special message this Christmas that we can all reflect on and take to heart. I think the following quote by Agnes M. Pharo says it all.

 

 

Merry Christmas to everyone, everywhere.

 

Until next time,

**This post contains affiliate links and we will be compensated if you make a purchase after clicking on our links.

Hi Everyone,

How goes the holiday shopping? I thought I'd help you out with some ideas from the Luca + Danni 2019 Holiday Gift Guide.

Plus, now is a fantastic time to buy because you can take advantage of their "Buy More, Save More" event, which allows you to save on your purchases as follows:

Buy 1 Item, Get the 2nd Item 25% Off - Use Promo Code: FESTIVE19

Buy 2 Items, Get the 3rd Item 50% Off - Use Promo Code: CHEER19

Buy 3 Items, Get the 4th Item FREE - Use Promo Code: HOLLY19

Alright, let's see what's in store!

First up are three festive bracelet sets that will help you "stack" on the merriment. These sets are available in silver tone or brass tone finish and come in regular or petite sizes. The pieces in each set can also be purchased separately.

Most Wonderful Stack of the Year - $99

Frozen in Time Stack - $84

Good Cheer Stack - $84

Next up a customized, sentimental gift idea for the animal lovers in your life. Put a beloved pet on a beautiful handmade bracelet! All you have to do is choose the size, finish, and then upload a photo of the furry friend you wish to feature.

Personalized Pawprint Bangle Bracelet - $48

One final idea is a way to honour a lost loved one whose loss is especially felt during the holidays. Cardinals are said to carry the messages of our loved ones who have passed, and this gift set features both a sculpted mix-metal necklace and a keepsake medallion. The back of the medallion is engraved with the words "I am always with you" and would make a lovely Christmas tree ornament, but of course it can always be displayed year round.

Cardinal Necklace + Keepsake Set - $49

Stella & Dot's Ultimate Holiday Edit 2019

**We were compensated for this post and this post contains affiliate links; we will be compensated if you make a purchase after clicking on our links.

Hi All,

As we begin the month of November, so does the official start to the holiday shopping season. We'll be posting promos and gift giving ideas to help you out over the next 6-7 weeks, so stay tuned.

To kick things off, some inspiration from Stella & Dot's Ultimate Holiday Edit, featuring selections of the season’s best jewelry, fashion and beauty gifts. Let's have a look at what's in store, shall we?

First up, there's no doubt that animal print is big in fashion, but it's also showing up in jewelry. Check out these Roar Studs.

Roar Studs - $39.00

These playful panther studs feature handset pavé stones and are Gold plated with a vintage finish. They measure a 1/2 inch in size, featherweight, and have titanium posts. You can also purchase the matching Roar Ring - $49.00 and the Roar Pendant - $99.00.


This next pair of earrings features a beloved (no pun intended) shape in jewellery. Have a look at these Essential Hammered Heart Hoops.

Essential Hammered Heart Hoops - Silver - $49.00

A unique take on the traditional hoop style, these heart shaped earrings are Sterling Silver with a shiny finish and have a hammered texture. They measure 2 inches in diameter and are featherweight. You can also purchase them in Shiny Gold Plate Finish.


The third item we've selected is available in one of the hottest colours in fashion -- blush pink. Here is The Puff Sleeve Pullover.

The Puff Sleeve Pullover - Classic Terry, Blush - $79.00

With a feminine twist on a sporty pullover, this top gathers at the shoulder to create the perfect puff. Made from the thickest, most traditional terry, the top is super soft, warm and cozy. The silhouette is body skimming and fits true to size, so you may want to size up if you prefer a more relaxed look. The fabric is 100% cotton, so it's recommended to machine wash cold with like colors and lay flat to dry. Additional colours include Burgundy Neoprene and Black Neoprene.


Remember we mentioned that animal print is big in fashion? Well, here's a Leopard Scarf to prove our point.

Leopard Scarf - $69.00

Made from 60% cotton, 30% acrylic, and 10% nylon, this leopard print scarf in soft grey tones is super soft. The 26″ × 76″ size makes it large enough to wear as a wrap. Count on this scarf to keep off the chill and keep you looking oh-so chic.


When it comes to beauty, there's nothing better than a product that's useful for more than just one thing. Check out the EVER Smooth - All Over Beauty balm.

EVER Smooth - All Over Beauty - $26.00

Consisting of natural oils, butters, and botanical extracts, this multi-tasking beauty balm can be applied to soften, protect and smooth your lips, cuticles, elbows, knees, and around the eye area. Store it at room temperature and avoid prolonged heat exposure to prevent melting.


Last up is a beauty product that's part of a revival, the return of Rose Gold. Here's the EVER FLASH - Rosé© Nude (rose gold) lip gloss.

EVER FLASH - Rosé Nude (rose gold) - $29.00

Yet another multi-tasker, this gloss has a hint of colour with a semi-sheen finish, as well as visible lip-plumping power thanks to the mint melange and peptides that bring about a cool tingly sensation. Additionally, the Vitamin E and Magnolia Oil extract help smooth, soften and hydrate. Wear it alone or layered over your favorite lipstick. Other colours include Sugar Nude (pink beige), Blush Nude (pale pink), Sunset Nude (copper bronze), Cameo Nude (nude taupe), and Mocha Nude (light brown).

Have fun shopping!

Until next time,

Eddy
