Created By Chicks Feature: The Fabulous Creativity of Blue Bijou Jewelry

Posted by bluebijou on February 2, 2010 at 2:42 am. No comments
We recently had the honor of being featured on Created by Chicks and here is the lovely article by Quinn Curtis, a local mompreneur and food photographer.

I’m so excited to feature Sarah Ward’s jewelry company, Blue Bijou jewelry, today!  I realize that I’ve been featuring a lot of jewelry recently, but I think you’ve GOT to see some of the Blue Bijou pieces.  Don’t you just love jewelry, though?  I mean, honestly, it’s like shoes – no matter what your weight, it always fits.

Also, in so many cases it seems that the jewelry makes the outfit.  I spoke with Sarah recently about this and am sure she agrees.  Sarah is a professional image consultant and specializes in helping people look their absolute best.  Also, Sarah is always up-to-date on what trends are happening and incorporates this into her jewelry pieces, so you can be sure that anything at Blue Bijou is going to fit the 2010 fashion, style and color trends.

So, without further ado, here are a few of my favorite Blue Bijou jewelry pieces (click on the pictures to be redirected to the item in her store):

Joy – $25.00 – Gold leaf with 2 Swarovski bicone crystals on gold 16″ necklace with lobster claw clasp.

Sarah – $15.00 – Dazzling circular filigree earrings with gold shepherd hooks.

Brindee – $20.00 – A new twist on the classic Y shape necklace, this leaf lariat with green and pink faceted beads will compliment your V-neck beautifully!

Ruth – $36.00 – Glorious Amazonite and Sterling Silver Bead Bracelet with a Sterling Silver Toggle Clasp.

This last piece is from her Turquoise Color of 2010 collection.  There are many more lovely turquoise pieces that would be such a fast, easy update to any wardrobe.

It was SOOOOOO difficult to only select a few of Blue Bijou’s pieces to feature as I love so many of them!  Be sure to take a peek at Blue Bijou and I’m certain you’ll fall in love with them, too.  Thanks, Sarah, for your lovely creativity!!!

Thank you for the wonderful feature, Quinn!  Definitely check out her website at www.createdbychicks.com.

Did you notice how minimalist some of the jewelry was at the Grammys last night?  Jennifer Hudson, Rihanna and Ciara each wore simple diamond stud earrings with their ensembles on the red carpet at the 2010 Grammy Awards.

This is the radiant Melissa Kesley.  She’s a rocking wedding photographer in Utah who is totally in demand.  She also happens to be a fan of blue bijou!

We caught up last night at Justin Hackworth’s 30 Strangers Photography Exhibit and while chatting, we discovered that both of our Dove necklaces had gone missing!  They must have flown away together!  Hopefully their migratory patterns will bring them home to us :)
