While sitting down {rare-occasion} with feet propped {again, totally rare} last night, I opened the crisp pages of my September issue of Country Living to discover a full-page article on Emily Maynard and her jewelry business, Elva Fields. Say what?! Emily Maynard from the Bachelorette now is a jewelry designer?
No! Not that Emily, but another adorable blonde who boasts the same name.
This Emily is truly talented {while the other is talented in being beautiful and snagging a cute hipster, water-loving philanthropist}. She got her start shortly after she wed when people were raving about her necklaces she made for her bridal party. Thinking she couldn't make a living, she started out small and asked close friends and family to host trunk shows in the living rooms after her 9-5 job. Much to her dismay, her company Elva Fields {named after her beloved grandmother} took off! She uses vintage bead and broaches to re-create modern pieces. Now 80% of her sales come from her website and she's happy to say that she can do what she loves full-time.
Taking a look at her line, I would buy every single one of these in a heartbeat! I think they are the perfect statement piece. And if I would have discovered her 2 years ago before my wedding, I too would have adorned my neck with one of these:
I literally cannot choose which one I like best. I would take them ALL... and probably try to wear them all at the same time. Aren't they amazing?!
Which is your favorite?
the black one with the yellow..get. on. my. neck.
ReplyDeleteI adore that one too Jessica! I hate that they are a little on the pricier side, but I think it would be worth it for a special occasion. That one would look great with a LBD.
