I can't believe that it's already February and yet another Fashion First is upon us. Seeing that Valentine's Day is right around the corner, we figured we'd celebrate with a jewelry trunk show! And as soon as we decided that, I knew exactly who to bring in- Mary Kelly Stribling of Give a Penny Designs. An old college classmate, Mary Kelly and I reconnected almost 2 years ago thanks to good ol' Facebook, and, as I'm always scouting for new jewelry lines, I noticed that she was posting images of her designs which really caught my eye- the pieces were affordable and gorgeous. So I wrote a small order to test the waters and sure enough, it flew out. People loved it! Not only for the aforementioned facts, but because the philosophy behind her company is based on giving back; for every purchase made at a jewelry show, Mary Kelly gives a portion to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society...and who doesn't love charity?!
At any given time, you'll be able to find at least one of her pieces in our jewelry case, but they don't last long- it seems like I'm always reordering her jewels to keep our case stocked for our customers (and myself- I must admit, I own more than a few pieces from her collection!). And I'm happy to report that she was more than willing to ship her new spring collection up for our Fashion First event this coming Thursday from 12-8. If you want a preview, check out www.giveapennydesigns.com. Hopefully you'll be able to make it out to take a peek and get yourself excited for Spring!
Enjoy the week- I hear it's supposed to be 65 on Wednesday?!
