Jewelry that makes a statement

By Mir

July 26, 2010

Want Not reader Amy isn’t just pretty, she’s pretty and she happens to be a stylist with Stella & Dot, which means that she sells really funky jewelry via home parties and on the ‘net. She came to me with an idea for a contest, and who am I to say no to free (cool) stuff?

So! This week one lucky Want Not reader is going to win these delicate drop earrings, courtesy of Amy. And who knows—maybe in looking around her site, you’ll find something else pretty that you can’t live without.

Want to win ’em? First go review the contest rules and regulations, then come on back here and leave a comment on this post by 8:00 a.m. Eastern (that’s 5:00 a.m. Pacific) on Thursday, July 29th, 2010, telling me which piece of Stella & Dot jewelry you like best to enter. (I spent about an hour on the site and found it a tough decision, but as long as I’m fantasizing, I hope someone picks up this pearl bib necklace for me. Did I mention my birthday’s coming up? Hee.)

As always, one entry per person, winner to be determined by random number generation, and hundreds will enter but only one will win. Ooooh, the suspense!

Ready? Go!

Eventually I chose these deco dot earrings (http://www.stelladot.com/sites/amyd/productcatalog?page=productdetail&sku=E113S) because they would make me feel fancy and the only dressy earrings I have are pearls. (Poor me.)
