ben amun bracelet giveaway (this is a REALLY good one!).

If the title didn’t give it away, I’m EXTREMELY excited about this giveaway!

I’ve been a huge fan of Ben Amun jewelry for a while now. I don’t think it’s much a secret that I’m a jewelry/accessories girl through and through, and Ben Amun’s designs continue to wow me.

Ben Amun

If you ask me, Ben Amun is the leader when it comes to eye catching statement jewelry (or as referred to on their website, “wearable art”). Their jewelry is bold and interesting, yet classic and elegant at the same time. Not to mention the fact that each piece is custom made to order.

My best friend Jessi is the social media community manager for Ben Amun, and when she asked if I’d like to do a giveaway, I obviously jumped at the opportunity.

Ben Amun was kind enough to gift me with the box link chain bracelet seen above, and I haven’t taken it off ever since. I love chunky gold jewelry, especially layered with other bracelets (a fun look for summer!).

And as for the giveaway, one lucky reader will win this STUNNING large link chain bracelet - the highest valued prize I’ve ever given away!

Yesterday Jessi and I paid a visit to the Style House PR show room to get a glimpse of some great clothing lines, Oasis and Warehouse.

Both are high fashion lines in the UK, and they recently came over to the US. I loved both lines – Oasis being a bit more my style with lots of florals, rompers, and other fun pieces.

The Warehouse line was beautiful as well. The pieces were sharper and more clean cut.

We also walked away with some Archipelago candles (just featured on my holiday gift guide), which are great high quality candles with incredible fragrances. I took home Harvest (smells like pumpkin pie) and Wood (musky and, well…woodsy).

You can see more of the lines and shop online here!

Is your style more like Oasis or Warehouse? Whimsical and fun or sharp and clean cut?

friday.

I love days where I get to work with my best friend. Yesterday we had a 4-hour long meeting about FreelyBe, complete with homemade lattes a la Jessi.

Jessi also let me borrow this gorgeous Ben Amun art deco necklace to wear for the night. It went perfectly with an (unpictured) all-black ensemble.

The night included a birthday party followed by a charity event, for what ended up being the perfect finish to the work week.

fitness.

I tried to sleep in today, but my internal clock had me wide awake at 8am, so I headed down to the gym.

30 minute strength, 20 minutes cardio – check and check!

Later in the day I headed out for some retail therapy, thanks to a gift card I’ve been saving for an open afternoon. Since it’s gotten a lot colder lately, I finally brought out one of my winter coats (Sparkle & Fade) and a faux fur neck warmer.

(…disregard the under-construction apartment ;))

And of course, gotta keep the hands warm.

food.

I have a love/hate relationship with yogurt. Sometimes it’s good, but sometimes the flavor and consistency just grosses me out.

But this…THIS is yogurt done right. Chobani Flip Almond Coco Loco. So delicious!
