It’s not a secret that I adore Julie Vos’ jewelry. (Actually, “adore” might be too subtle. “Covet,” “obsessed with” and “head-over-heels for” are more accurate.) Julie expertly mixes colored gemstones with classic styles to create pieces that look like precious souvenirs from a faraway marketplace.
Keep in touch with Julie on Twitter and Facebook!

A statement pendant is a key layering piece for summer and I love the colorful rhinestones crowning the top of this one. It’s a steal at just $24 with LOFT’s current 40% off promotion.
Giveaway Reminders:
Went mod. Admired the first signs of spring. Enjoyed a clear day after weeks of rain. Spent an afternoon at local watering holes. Finally found the perfect pair of pointy black flats. Scooped up a pair of floral shorts. Went to Milwaukee for an overnight getaway. Visited the Milwaukee Brewing Company. Giggled my way through Mindy Kaling’s book. Adored a surprise bouquet of daisies from Dave. Wore this necklace a lot. Pulled out a few springtime accessories.
I’d love to keep in touch with you on Instagram! You can find me at @bedknobsandbaubles.
Created by Loren Barham, Loren Hope is a jewelry line best described as a modern – and colorful! – approach to vintage. An array of rhinestones, semi-precious stones and Czech glass embellish Loren’s hand-crafted designs. It’s almost impossible to choose a favorite from her collection, but the darling sunburst studs in malachite top my list.
Shop the Highlights: Collette necklace // Sunburst studs // Leda bracelet // Clara earrings // Petra pendant
Summer is the perfect time for a stack of carefree bangle bracelets, like this pair from Sequin. The jewelry company sent over a few items for me to try last week and I fell for these hinged bangles. I have such a small wrist that it’s hard for me to find bracelets that don’t slip off. There’s a colorful array of options to choose from (even though I’m drawn to understated white and gold) and plenty more covetable styles on their site!
Giveaway! One reader will win her own perfect pair of bangles! Just mix and match the bracelets from Sequin’s spring collection and let me know which two you’d like to own. Good luck!
This giveaway is open to U.S. readers!
