one of a kind, personalized jewelry, the Designer, the Shopper | January 7, 2013

Obsessed with the COLOR BAR*

*see the bottom of this post for a BONUS

I am a very late Kendra Scott fan.  She opened a new store here in Houston a couple months ago and my friend Laura has been insisting I go and check out her COLOR BAR.  Just recently I finally did check it out with my daughter and the store is gorgeous!!!  And now I am obsessed with the COLOR BAR online and in the store.

What is Kendra Scott’s COLOR BAR?  You can choose from 23 of her designs and personalize them by adding any of her 26 gems anyway you like to create a one-of-a-kind design!  This can be done online or in her store on a giant touch screen or on the iPads available for customers to use.  So awesome!  Here’s a picture of my daughter and her design on the touch screen:

She was very excited and insisted on taking a picture of me doing a similar pose.

If you don’t have a store you can run to right now, no worries, playing online is just as fun!  I’ve been designing on the Kendra Scott website for the past three evenings, clicking like crazy.  These earrings below I tried to buy for myself from C. Wonder but they are now unavailable:

So I’ve designed my own version and I think I like them better:
Kyla Earrings

I’ve also been trying to design something for the Rodeo and the possibilities are endless:

Simms Earrings
Nyla Earring

I think my first purchase will have to be something like this with Tiger’s Eye:

Darby Earring

Then I want to get this for my sister for her birthday coming up, it’s named after her. 🙂

Carly Earring

Lastly, I’ve always wanted something Mother-of-Pearl or Opal looking.  So I’m trying to design something special:

Darby Earring

As you can see I’m obsessed and the possibilities are truly endless.  You must go check out Kendra Scott’s awesome COLOR BAR and sign up for e-mails to get 15% off your next purchase.  The 15% off is waiting for me to make a decision and my Christmas cash is burning a hole in my pocket!  The fun us waiting for you too!

*I’ve decided to do a GIVEAWAY today for facebook followers!  Just “like” the TITYN page and you’ll be entered for a chance to win a $75 GiftRocket Gift Card for Kendra Scott!!!  Happy New Year!

  • Everyday Outfits: Workout Wear Edition
    I rarely buy workout wear. I think it’s because I find it difficult to find cute stuff, and I’d rather buy cute “real” clothes. But when I saw all the cute workout wear on the SAKS website, I knew I wanted to share it with you for this months SAKS collaboration.  I ordered a whole […]

While we were in Cabo we got a call from home that While we were in Cabo we got a call from home that our garage door broke and wouldn’t close. This can be a dangerous situation because it’s a heavy piece of woodwork, the cord can snap and the door can fall! @mygoodsmith was our hero, came over early Saturday to assess the situation and make sure our kids were safe by staying away from it. 🙏🏼 Then their Garage Door Partner was out a few hours later and fixed it! 😅 All of this happened while we were relaxing on a beach 1,000 miles away from home! Thank you @mygoodsmith and Morgan Booth for coming to the rescue! 😃

I like to save my Nordstrom Notes and use them tow I like to save my Nordstrom Notes and use them towards a bag. I’m not sure when this tradition started but I like it! 😃 This time I needed a new bag for travel and this tote has been perfect! Everything fits in here, even my laptop! It’s so squishy and soft, I could take a nap on it. 😴 And it has a removable pouch big enough to hold a change of clothes and flip flops just in case. I appreciate all the details, you’ll have to check them out in the next photos: the red on the edge of the leather, the yellow stitching and the hot pink interior. 😍 If you’re needing a new tote, check this one out through the link in my profile 👉 @tellittoyourneighbor. And if you’re not in the market, check out my aerial photos I took from the airplanes. It’s my in-flight entertainment! 📸 Let me know if you spot your office building, your favorite hotel, your local elementary or maybe your house! 👀 Thank you!!
