Diamonds Are Forever
A few weeks ago my mom told me I spent too much money on fashion jewelry and I probably could have traded in a few things and gotten myself a diamond necklace, something that will last forever. Of course I objected and told her I’m fine with my fashion jewels and to leave me alone (lol). Then I started thinking…My mommy has a point.

Swimwear: H&M / Necklaces: Givenchy
Take for example, these Givenchy necklaces. They are fun for the time being but after a few years (or months), they will probably end up in the back the closet, rusted. Why are moms always right? I suddenly realized I do need to invest in more quality pieces that will last a lifetime.
Ironically, last week a diamond company called Anjolee contacted me to review their website and some of their collections. Could this possibly be a sign of some sort? :) Well, without much expectations, I checked out the site and was pretty happy with what I found.
The three things I checked out were the diamond bracelets, diamond hoops and diamond necklaces. The latter being my favorite! I love how all of their pieces are custom made and looks very vintage, but I especially love that it can be tailored according to metal type, diamond size, quality and length. I think that’s perfect especially if you’re on a budget. If you have time and are looking for custom pieces within your budget, check them out and let me know what you think!
Question: As you guys know, I love inspirational quotes about love, happiness and this little journey called life. Every since I started my blog I have been adding them under my first picture, but decided to add the quote onto the image this time. What are your thoughts? Do you like it better? Also, if you have a quote that inspired you, I love to know what it is!
Thanks for this review, I checked out the site and LOVE one of the vintage looking bracelets. This is going to be what I want for my aniversary coming up! YAY!
I actually like the comments at the bottom of your post …I did not even notice it in the picture. Either way, I love that you add inspiring quotes.
Amazing pics!
Nice blog here, do you want to follow each other? Let me know!

My favourite quote has always been this:

Your mom is right–every girl should have some real diamonds in her closet. I wear my diamond studs almost every day, and my diamond pendant gets a lot of wear, too. I like having those as foolproof wardrobe staples, but I do love me some costume jewelry, too. I’m sad sometimes when a piece doesn’t last, but there’s always a new cheap thrill to be had!
You look lovely in these photos, dear, and I love your picture and quote combo! Very pretty!
Omg you are sooooooo pretty!!
Awe gorgous photos dear. I love the jewelry you have on but would love to see you wearing one from the company. Are you going to invest in one of their pieces? I think a pair of diamond earrings would go a long way.
Yes diamonds are forever and moms are always right (don’t you hate that!?) :)
P.S. The site is cool, kinda pricey but I haven’t tried the customization yet so we’ll see. SO far I really like some of their “vintage” looking bracelets.
Please keep the posts coming. Diamonds are definietly a must have. “Diamonds are forever”
That is a really cute head band that you have on, is that the same necklace? I agree that us girls need to invest in more timeless pieces like diamonds and such. I always wear my CZ diamond earrings from Nordstrom. It’s shines and looks like a diamond but isn’t and over time I’ve noticed that it’s not as sparkly as the first day I purchased it. :(
Hi KTR, I have been following you since December and I love your blog! I have to agree with you, moms are usually right whether we like it or not and yes diamonds do last forever (until you trade it in and get an upgrade haha). They are timeless and they are investment that all woman should look into. I actually heard of that company and do like their customizable options a lot. It’s my husband and I’s 10 year anniversary coming up and I do need to find something nice to stick on the fridge as a hint. :) I’ll checked out this site and will let you know what I like! As for the quote on your image, I love it! Keep up the good work!
