l want to start off by saying I am a jewelry fanatic. I love jewelry of all sorts and I wear various pieces every day. As a busy mom, my husband and I don't really go out at often as we'd like. Sure, we get a break from time to time allowing the children to visit with their grandparents, but we're so exhausted we usually come home and fall asleep within an  hour of being home! We sound like a bunch of old people, but it's true. Jace is 4 months. he was starting to sleep pretty well until he start getting congested. Now we've been having plenty of restless nights. So of course just as we were thinking we were finally getting somewhere and getting him on a nice sleeping schedule... welcome to parenthood! So of course when we do get a chance to go out somewhere, even out to dinner, we like to dress up half way decent. I like to get out the mommy pj's and wear a cute outfit of some sort and just feel good about myself. Of course with the cute outfit, every girl needs to accessorize! I mean accessories are what really make an outfit look great if you ask me. Well I found some really great pieces at an online boutique called Chic Designs by Yvette!

l was sent some gorgeous red crystal and diamond rondell earrings to check out and I think I'm in love! Are these real diamonds? I couldn't tell you, but the earrings themselves are gorgeous! Not only do they look nice, but when I took them out and felt them in my hand - they felt like high quality pieces of jewelry. My ears are sensitive to earrings with a lot of weight and I just don't feel comfortable wearing heavy earrings. These have a slight weight to them, but not so much where I can't wear them. It's just a "quality weight" if that makes sense. As in what I feel comes from the quality materials that were used. They don't pull on my ear lobe though and I can wear these, even with my sensitive ears, a whole day without any issues. Usually anything with weight I can't stand for even a few minutes. So these earrings not only caught my attention with their beauty, but with their high quality as well. 

Yvette was friendly and professional to work with. My earrings shipped out quickly and were packaged well. They arrived safely without any damage. From my experience I would definitely recommend checking out Chic Designs by Yvette. I would trust doing business from her again in the future and recommend checking her stuff out for yourself. It's gorgeous and you won't be disappointed!
