Kassiebelle’s New Website

A while back I posted about Kassiebelle Designs, a beautiful jewelry line started by Chicago jewelry designer, Gerri Cicchinelli. I’m very excited to announce that she has a new website where you can purchase her designs and also request any custom orders. Visit www.kassiebelle.com and shop!

Everything is very reasonably priced, of the highest quality materials and super stylish. Buy some pieces for yourself or give to your girl friends…they also make great gifts for the holidays! Her specialties are fabulous charm necklaces with a variety of clever themes, “arm candy” which are layers of bracelets made of various stones and gems, and one-of-a-kind pieces that include vintage chains, pearls and more.

How can you not love this jewelry?

Fun and fabulous, girls and women of all ages would love this!

And just to show how much I love Kassiebelle, here’s a look at my Kassiebelle bracelet collection…so far 🙂

Swarovski Elements Giveaway & Sweepstakes

There is an awesome giveaway going on RIGHT NOW on the Swarovski Elements Facebook Page. Although it’s a giveaway completely separate from ChiCityFashion, it was just too good not to share with you!

Here’s how the giveaway works:

Every morning at 8:00AM EST, a new image will be shown with jewelry pieces over-laid on top. Fans just have to tag an item on the image to enter that day’s drawing by 8:00PM EST that night and 50 random fans will be chosen the next morning from the previous day. Gifts include necklaces, bracelets, broaches and more.

The giveaway doesn’t stop there! On 12/8 Swarovski Elements will be hosting a sweepstakes with the top three prizes as product packages from their 2010 Holiday Collection. A new product image will appear once every business day untilDecember 14th and fans will be asked to tag, comment and/or like the image to be entered in the sweepstakes. The more they interact with the photo, the more they are entered into the sweepstakes. Three winners will be chosen at random the following week and prize packages include items from A7, BB Simon, Skagen Denmark, Ted Rossi and more.

“I wanted to be Alexandria; I didn’t want to be my father’s daughter. I love him… The stereotypes that are placed on you when you have a certain family or background are so harsh and most of the time untrue. I try to stay away from that.”
