fly me to the moon







The lovely Nadia from the online jewelry store, Ice.com, sent me this gorgeous 9 carat Moonstone & Iolite ring. I love how the moonstone is surrounded by the dark iolites, giving it the edge I need. And the white moonstone will be the perfect compliment to my summer wardrobe. This ring couldn't have come at a better time...Thank you Nadia & Ice.com!

P.S. I'm a stickler for packaging and presentation so when I opened the box to discover the delightful box tied with a perfect ribbon, I was immediately won over. Not only does Ice.com have a beautiful selection of jewelry at great prices, but they obviously care very much about their products and their customers which is always reassuring when purchasing from any online store.

Oh, and this ring?...Super comfortable. It's light and the stones don't portrude out as much so it's not cumbersome nor does it get in the way or snag on anything. And ladies, we know how important that is. ;)



Pssst...Don't forget to vote...Tomorrow is the last day. :)

Oh that is really stunning. I LOVE big cocktail, costume-jewelry rings!

BTW, in your photos it looks like you cut your hair--and it looks really cute! haha... just letting you know in case you ever decide to go shorter.

Leia said...

Oh my goodness, that ring is *gorgeous*! I love the way it looks with the blue nails as well. Also, did you get a haircut? Your waves/curls look so pretty in those pictures!

Nina (femme rationale) said...

Thx ladies! The ring really is pretty. I love it!

Jozee & Leia: I didn't cut my hair...I curled it w/a big barreled curling iron which is probably why it looks shorter. And I've actually had my hair very short a la Katie Holmes like 2-3 years ago and I vowed NEVER again. I hated it so much that I have no photos from that time. haha
