THE BRIGHT SPOT

Food. Travel. Bargain finds. Random thoughts. A bright spot for sharing ideas and starting conversations!

Gold Rings

01.29.2012 by Leah //

When I started my jewelry collection I was buying more rings than earrings or bracelets.   Although I never wear more than 2 rings at a time (not stacked but worn individually), I went on to buy more than what my fingers could wear hehe. My first purchases were those in white gold with moissanite stones, then I went on to buy some with yellow gold and real diamonds.  I have ... READ MORE

Gold Charm Bracelet in the Making + Links of London

09.25.2011 by Leah //

I bought this nice, chunky bracelet last year.   It's made of 14k Italian gold, in alternating white and yellow gold chains in different shape and sizes: Aside from its eye-catching design, what made me buy this was the opportunity to transform this into a charm bracelet.   The last time I owned one was in high school and this time, I want to invest on them, especially after ...

Moissanite Rings

09.20.2011 by Leah //

I clearly remember the day I made my first jewelry purchase.   It was a half-eternity ring from the Moissanite shop at Glorietta that caught my attention.  It took some 3 more trips to the store before I decided to buy it. Here is my first ever jewelry investment -  5 certified Charles and Colvard created Moissanite stones set in 18k white gold: You must be wondering ... READ MORE

Pearl Scallop Bib Necklace from Kate Spade

09.02.2011 by Leah //

This is an absolutely stunning piece that is perfect for weddings! Kate Spade's Pearl Scallop Bib necklace is just lovely. Filipinos have this belief that brides wearing pearls during their wedding will cry a bucket during their married life.  But had I seen this necklace earlier during my wedding preparations, I'd most likely junk that superstition and went ahead ...

Gotta love Bangles!

08.21.2011 by Leah //

If you are a follower of The Bag Hag's blog (like me), you'd know that she's just been to India and has shared marvelous pictures from her trip. I was totally enamored with the structural beauty of the places she's been to, and was totally awed at how they were preserved for us later generations to appreciate. But of course, as a jewellery lover, what captured my ... READ MORE

My Own Chanel Pearl Drop Earrings

08.19.2011 by Leah //

I love customizing my jewelry.   I get my inspirations from celebrities and fashion magazines. Take these Chanel Pearl Drop Earrings that Kris Aquino was wearing during the eulogy she delivered for her mom in August last year: I remember being touched by her eulogy and cried alongside her, but I kept my eyes too on her earrings hehe. The CC-logo in Kris Aquino's ... READ MORE

Kate Middleton’s Asprey London Pendant

08.11.2011 by Leah //

The Duchess was spotted wearing this Asprey London's Round Pave Pendant Necklace at the recent celebration of Canada Day: Photo credit:  duchessofcambridgestyle.com It reminds me of "evil eye" pendants, which are used as protective charms in the parts of the Middle East.   The Turkish Evil Eye Pendant is the more popular one, as it is said to protect the wearer from ...

My Feng Shui Bracelets

08.09.2011 by Leah //

I discovered beaded bracelets with feng shui charms thru eBay.   I saw this feng shui seller who piqued my curiosity about DZI bracelets.  I bought a few to see if indeed they will work as my luck, health and money charms hehe. My DZI charm bracelets:   9-eyed DZI with citrine beads, 21-eyed DZI with tiger-eye beads and turtle shell DZI with lapis lazulis. What does ... READ MORE
