Cute accessories will always catch my attention.  Interesting, fresh ideas and inspired drive seem to always also catch my attention.

When I initially stumbled across Stella & Dot, I fell in love with a handful of their reasonably priced pieces.  I have found their jewelry to be the perfect pick-me-up for an old stand-by stuffed in the back of your closet or the perfect gift for a girlfriend, your mom or even your bridesmaids.

After reading a bit more about the company, I also fell in love with the concept.  Stella & Dot was founded by Jessica Herrin – who also co-founded weddingchannel.com {at age 24!}.  Stella & Dot took the old tupperware party concept and applied it to modern day – with local stylists hosting trunk-shows and managing ecommerce sites positioned around the country – modern women have found a way to balance life and career.  Along with the help of chief creative designer, Blythe Harris, – who previously gained experience designing for names like {practical favorite} Banana Republic and {less practical favorite} Cartier – Stella & Dot has rapidly become a celeb favorite and have gained accolades in nearly all popular magazines.
