Valentine's Day Gift Guide: For Her

Ahhh, Valentine's Day! The day of love! The day of roses. And chocolates. And what else? Well, jewelry of course! If you are looking for a chic gift for your girl this year - look no further than BBB! We breakdown our top gifts for her this Valentine's Day this year from luxe to less!

Luxe

Tiffany Key Heart Pendant in Gold/ $850

The perfect "trendy" yet timeless gift from Tiffany's. The heart makes it romantic, the gold metal fashionable, and the little turquoise box? Priceless!

Lovely

Judith Ripka Pink Crystal and Pave Heart Earrings/ $325

Judith Ripka is literally the queen of hearts. For a very special Valentines Day gift, get her something from Ripka's sterling silver collection. We love the pink gemstones because not only are they perfect for this holiday, but they are ultra feminine and will compliment all of the Spring styles.

A little Something

Gorjana Alphabet Charm Bracelet/ $40

Personalization makes any gift special and this dainty sterling silver bracelet from Gorjana is the perfect little something for V-Day. This would even be a cute gift for a son/daughter to give to mom! Get mom the kids initials instead of their own for something really special!

Fashionably Yours,

Daily Bling - Thursday, June 10

Last night we caught the tail end of Judith Ripka's show on QVC debuting her latest line of awesomely-priced beauties! We are a huge fan of Judith Ripka, pretty much EVERY line she puts out, but we were sort of disappointed by her last few collections for QVC. We were happy to see this time she pulled out all the stops with a bunch of fun new styles at affordable prices for QVC.


The piece we are dying to get our hands on (literally) is today's daily bling, the Sterling Cultured Pearl and Cabochon Ring. This sterling silver ring features textured bubbles, round gray and peacock-colored freshwater pearls and beautiful amethyst and blue topez cabochons. We'd love to wear this true statement ring with a black tie look and have it mind as a finishing touch to a charcoal gray bridesmaid dress we will be wearing next month.


You can check out this ring, which retails at $75, as well as the gorg. matching cabochon earrings and pendent and all of JR's beautiful pieces on QVC.com.

The Daily Bling - Monday, February 22nd

Judith Ripka for QVC Sterling Cushion Cut Lotus Ring in Whisky Quartz

Today's daily bling is actually bling(s) as it comes in the form of two! My favorite luxury jewelry designer is without a doubt Judith Ripka. Over the years I have been lucky enough to acquire a few of her couture pieces but about 3 years back I also discovered her Sterling Silver Collection on QVC and was wowed! A lot of her designs in her QVC line look very similar to her couture sterling silver line and are a fraction of the price. Most of the pieces feature real gemstones and the only major difference is that the diamond accents in the QVC line are not diamond, but diamonique - QVC's own version of CZ. In many of the pieces however, the diamonique detailing is so small, that no one would EVER guess the difference.

Last night, I was pleased to find a Judith Ripka three-hour special on QVC (much to my boyfriend's disapointment. He can handle Keeping Up With The Kardashians, he is okay with Glee, hey, he even lets me watch Teen Mom - but home shopping is where it ends!). I didn't order anything but had I, it would have been the Sterling Cushion Cut Lotus Ring in Whisky Quartz (featured above). Its beautiful and affordable at $120. Alas, my size was sold out but its still available in certain sizes here: http://www.qvc.com/qic/qvcapp.aspx/view.2/app.detail/params.item.J35999.desc.Judith-Ripka-Sterling-Cushion-Shaped-Lotus-Design-Ring.

Also, it reminds me much of this beauty from her couture line, the Large Fontaine Ring in Canary but this one is almost 8x the price!

Whatever your budget Judith has something gorgeous for you! Check out http://www.judithripka.com/ to browse her couture line or http://www.qvc.com/ to check out her Sterling Silver collection.
