Alex and Ani Review and Giveaway!
Are you guys ready for Valentines Day? It
is just over a week away and the clock is tic-ken.
I thought I was starting to hit the bottom of the
barrel when it came to posting gift ideas for
you guys. I have passed on so many as of late
for I determined to bring you guys some original,
quality, entertaining or beautiful to behold items that
will either make the recipient of your gift squeal in
delight or just plain take their breath away. I was
almost ready to start working on an Easter Guide
for you guys then I came across a Jewelry store I
felt I just had to share. Now I feel pretty confidant
at this point that I know jewelry. From out of this
world in price and design to affordable and simple
I think I have covered it all. Once in a while I
locate a store that covers it all in one little kit
and Caboodle. When that stop you dead in your
tracks perfect Jewelry store also happens to have
a heart and dedicates large amounts of time to
helping Charitable organizations through creating
a unique design that embodies the message and
reflects the beauty of each charity I felt it was
my duty to share too! Pull the Bus over, I am getting
off and don't come back to tomorrow. I might
get so carried away I will have to borrow some
of Andrews friends to help me unload! This place
is a jackpot of knock your socks off pieces!
Alex and Ani has pages and pages of
stunning and one of a kind pieces that as if that
wasn't enough they also allow you to design your own.
I got a bruise on my chin from my jaw hitting the
ground when I saw everything their inventory, Yummy!
I contacted them and let them know I was quiet sure
that lightening would strike me dead if I did not put them
on my Valentines Day gift guide and they sent an item
for review and I think they did it for fear of drowning
in the puddle of drool flowing from me to their store!
I received a bracelet that is unlike any I have seen before.
It is totally fashionable and you can wear it everyday,
around the house, heck, this would look stunning to wear
to the beach even or dress it up and take it out on the
town. Sometimes a perfect piece of Jewelry makes a
better date them some of the nut balls on the dating
market. It also makes "The Perfect" Valentines
Day gift for the bracelet is all about love! The Love
Bangle is what I received and it comes in two styles, the
Russian Silver and the Russian Gold and both are stunning.
I loved the simplicity of it and the message it delivered.
For their bracelets it is such a hard choice though for
the have over 5 pages of single charm bracelets alone.
Add in every other variety and the results are staggering.
That is also just one category of the Jewelry selection.
The also have the Charity by Design selection where you
can pick out a piece and watch up to 100% of the profets
be given to that charity. In fact right now the have a
Cornelian Bangle Bracelet where all the profits go to help
those in Haiti.
They carry everything you could ever want
for your jewelry needs and I had a field day strolling through
the selection of new arrivals and best sellers and found a
really stylish and sheek Disco Inferno Expandable Bangel set to
add to my wish list. The Hoop earings are another one of
my favorites and the Cavier Endless Hoops are so right up
my alley followed by the Mother of Pearls for you all know
how I feel about Pearls right now. The Bangle Bar has got
to be the coolest thing I have ever seen. What it does is you
go to that area and there is a rod, 3 D like, and on the side are
alll the catagorys of single bracelets they have for you to look
at and choose for your own stackable design. Your options are
beads that are metal or glass or just a plain bracelet and then
charms from here to tomorrow in all differant designs. You pick
out exactaly what you want and they bring it to life. Normally I
don't like getting gift certificates from John for a present because
it makes me feel like the only reason he bought one was he
wasn't paying attention to the hints I dropped and he just didn't
want to put the effort into finding the right gift. I am weird like that,
I don't care if he buys me something that costs 39 cents as long as
it is something he put thought into and looked for but if he were
to give me one for here and explain he thought I might like to
design my own I would so forgive him! This has got to be the
coolest idea ever!
Alex and Ani is a celeberty favorite too and even
the Great Oprah herself has them in her Magazine and I grew
tired of counting the number of other publications they have
been in for somewhere after the 3rd page it became more then
clear that the list would go on forever. When you make something
with pride and the quality shows and you still find time to give
back to the comunity, you can't help but to end up a huge
sucess and Alex and Ani truly are. So if you are looking for
a simple bangle for your daughter or a whole set for your wife.
Want to start your own collection and pair it with some delishious
earings, these guys have you covered. You may onnly have a little
over a week left but there is still time and many other reasons
to buy your loved one something from here, even if it is
"Just Because!"
