Love at first sight - my picks this week

There are jewels that simply amaze me the moment I see them. No need to think twice if I like them or not, it’s definitely love at first sight. With every post I write, it becomes clearer to me why I chose “Jewelry Love Affair” title for my blog.

It happened once again to me while discovering these beautiful pieces in the collections of several talented designers. No wonder they received important awards in different jewelry contests.

Colorful necklaces

Spring is awesome! Days longer than nights and thus more energy and time to invest in new projects, desire to spend more time out in the open, beauty in nature – this sounds pretty much like spring to me. But this is not all. The enthusiasm also comes from the revival of colors, don’t you think? Just look around and observe the positive influence of the palette on your state of mind.

These wonderful necklaces would make a perfect match for that scenery:
