MEG Jewelry's "Thankfuls" on Thanksgiving!

Happy Turkey Day to all those who are celebrating! We wanted to share our "thankfuls" with you and our favorite MEG Jewelry piece. We are so thankful for each other at MEG Jewelry and even though a couple couldn't share their "thankfuls", Jill and Jonathan, we wanted to let them know how priceless they are.
Make the day special and tell your family and friends how important they are to you. The simplicity of this act brings warmth to the soul!

"What I am most thankful for is my husband.  He is perfect, in my eyes.  With all of the blessings throughout my life, he is my number one.

  I believe everyday is thanksgiving.  I celebrate the beginning of each day giving thanks to the four directions; The South that brings the "sunshine",  the East that brings the "new dawn", the North that brings the "hills and valleys", and the West that brings the "sundown".  I give thanks above and below and to everything in between."

"My favorite MEG Jewelry piece is the Long Jewel Earring circa 2006. I can't help but love the sapphires that bring a feminine/sexy appeal to wearer!"

"I am thankful for my amazing little boy Nolyn and the home we have built on love. I am very thankful for my position at MEG Jewelry, which I love!!  Also my friends and family that have been by my side and supported me through the years. Favorite MEG Jewelry Piece is the Cleopatra Headband which I have and wear all the time, also love the Maxine post, that never leave my ear's :)"

"I am thankful for my wonderful husband and my adorable son. I am also thankful for all of my wonderful family and friends, that surround us.  My favorite MEG Jewelry Piece is the Urbi Necklace and Earrings."

"I have been pursuing new chapters in my life after finishing my degree last spring and have been incredibly blessed with wonderful people who have helped me along the way. I am thankful for all the opportunities I have had in the past 4 months and so happy to be a part of the MEG Jewelry family. I love little sparkles and my favorite MEG jewelry piece right now is the Vo Earrings!"

"I am thankful for having three beautiful children that are "good young adults" and two of the cutest little grand boys any grandparent would want! Favorite MEG Jewelry Piece, I Love It All!"

{Wear This!} Ingle & Rhode Ethical Engagement Rings

Have you ever been concerned about the origins of your engagement ring? Where the origins conflict free? Ingle & Rhode Ethical Jewellers has a rigorous process for ensuring that their diamonds are not only Kimberley Certified, but that they can trace the diamond source directly to ensure their conflict free origin. Many of their diamonds are sourced from Canada, as the Northwest Territories have strict regulations. Ingle & Rhode is also concerned about child labor and being environmentally friendly. 

Their designs are simplistic and natural. They tell a story about love. 

If you already have that engagement ring on your finger , don't worry! Ingle and Rhode has diamond bracelets, ear-studs, and eternity rings. Perfect for a gift down the road. **nudge nudge to the fiance!**

{Wednesday Wants} The Fall Season Bride

As the fall season is coming to a close, we want to reflect on what a beautiful season it is for your wedding day. Just think about it, October is the new June! You have the opportunity for an outside wedding full of orange, red, yellow, and green foliage colors. Keep the reception warm and cozy with apple cider and hot toddy and have quilts on hand just in case your guests get cold. 

Not only can you reflect the fall season in the decor of your ceremony and reception, you can have details in your wedding attire. Subtle lace leaf designs cascade down gowns that mingle with tiny flowers. We are continuing to see these gowns grace the fall season and wanted to give our complimentary picks of MEG Jewelry.

The MEG Jewelry Cleopatra Necklace, Bracelet, and Hairband have soft foliage shapes that add to your overall fall season look. The Juno Earring falls delicately from your ear while emulating lace details on your dress. 

Pair your MEG Jewelry with these great choices for a fall inspired dresses.

{Wednesday Wants} The STATEMENT Necklace

Tweet
Every woman needs a little glamour in her life and the statement necklace is just the thing you need! Back on the rise, statement necklaces are a popular item trending in the bridal industry right now. Kleinfeld Bridal wrote a feature on their blog about this trend and showcased the MEG Jewelry Polly Necklace. (Great stuff, check it out!)

This led us to think about what is glamorous, or particularly who is inspiring! We thought of the classic actresses of the early 20th century and how extravagant their style was. Emulation is forever repeating itself and that is apparent through trends in the 21st century. We chose a few our favorite actresses of yesterday and today to show how to "make it work!"

We picked some of our newest styles from our Spring/Summer 2011 that we thought you would enjoy. If your a new bride for the summer 2011 season, take a look at what bridal boutiques are carrying MEG Jewelry and find your perfect statement!

A Note!

A big thank you to Meg for adding me into the MEG Jewelry family! I am totally enjoying the collaboration of our Wednesday Wants and Wear This features. It's great to blog about your awesome jewelry and wedding tidbits. Stayed tune for this Friday and see what's next.
