speakable newness.

30 June, 2014 by Gracie 12 Comments

Helloooo and happy Monday!

I must admit I’m always a bit wary that I’m posting too much about Speakable - mostly because I never want to seem too self-promoting. BUT…Speakable is my baby and something I’m extremely proud of. So why wouldn’t I share it on a blog about my life, right?

With that being said, I just wanted to let you in on a few exciting things going on over in Speakable world. First of all, (as you may have seen on yesterday’s post) NEW YORK is back!

Secondly, all of the necklaces are now available in lower case lettering, which has been getting a great response.

The new nameplate necklaces have also been getting a ton of love…

And last but not least, I’ve released not one but TWO new words to the Freedom Collection! Well, phrases

BE STILL and BE BRAVE.

Both of those were just really on my heart, so I thought they’d make a perfect addition.

So, that’s that! Thanks again for all of your support and encouragement. You can check out all of the necklaces (and contact me if you have any questions) over at www.Speakable.co, and stay up to date by following Speakable on Instagram.

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

7 May, 2014 by Gracie

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.

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!

speakable armed & anchored {mini} collection.

17 February, 2014 by Gracie 6 Comments

If you follow Speakable on social media, you may have seen me mention that I’m currently working on the third full collection. I’m really excited about this one because it includes a handful of the words that YOU have requested most!

I’m aiming to reveal that collection in March, but I couldn’t leave you all hanging until then.

So, in the meantime, I’ve released the Armed & Anchored MINI Collection.

I’ve always loved charm necklaces, and I know that so many people love the symbolism behind them. So I thought, why not let your charm speak for you?

Check out the (limited edition) mini collection here!
