Beach & Resort Jewelry – Freshwater Pearls and Leather

Beach & Resort Jewelry – Freshwater Pearls and Leather

Wendy Mignot Pearl & Leather JewelryLike most women, I love jewelry and I am totally addicted to pearls. Lucky for me, I’m a June baby and it’s my birthstone and I’ve amassed quite the collection over the past 48 years. One of the great things about pearl jewelry is that is never goes out of style and is always an heirloom classic.

Recently I was introduced to the gorgeous jewelry by designer Wendy Mignot. No one takes the classic white freshwater pearl out of its shell and into fresh, trending jewelry settings better than designer Wendy who for over a decade has been the leader in fashioning pearls found naturally in freshwater rivers and seas with naturally tanned and hand-rolled leathers.

We recently were on vacation down at the beach and let me tell you, I saw women everywhere sporting around freshwater pearl & leather jewelry. On top of that, almost every jewelry store I walked into…had this type of jewelry on display. That’s right ladies, this classic is once again…hot & trendy!

For this review, I received a complimentary freshwater pearl & leather bracelet to review for all of you. While on vacation, my mother & I (she’s shown in the photos) took turns wearing it. Okay I admit, she was trying to snatch it away from me because she loved the bracelet too!

The bracelet features 3 gorgeous pearls on the front of it and they are strung on a brown leather cord. The clasp in the back is a single pearl that hooks into a loop which fastens the bracelet closed. It sits very comfortably on your wrist and I do recommend that you size up a 1/4″ in size when ordering. Mine fits a little snug, but still very wearable, so that’s why I recommend sizing up.

In addition to pearl bracelets, you’ll find freshwater pearl necklaces, earrings, pearl accent key chains, cuffs, etc. when you shop at Wendy Mignot.

PicturesOnGold - Heart Locket Necklace

I have 2 grandchildren and had the opportunity to create one of these sterling silver heart lockets for myself. I had them engrave Grandma on the outside of my locket and inside I have two color-engraved photographs of my grandchildren. On the backside of the locket I had them engrave the words “My Precious Grandchildren” and I selected the 18″ long box chain for it to hang from. The entire process took me less than 5 minutes to complete!
