To all of you boys out there who are reading this blog, I apologize in advance for the following content. But, I thought it was high time to pay tribute to the fairest color of them all.

Call me a girl, but I have always been drawn to all things pink. In honor of this attraction, I wanted to share my latest and greatest finds from the world of blush and bashful.

I have to say her name out loud, because I am so angry with myself for just now learning about her.  I recently found the most fabulous necklace at Nordstrom’s and became quickly obsessed with all of the jewelry by this one particular designer…Kendra Scott.

It seems I have been living on Mars, without InStyle Magazine, because prior to my shopping excursion, I was unaware of Kendra Scott. Not only is her jewelry stunning, but her color combinations are strikingly beautiful.

I don’t know how else to describe her jewelry but to say that it is equally antique and modern; boisterous and delicate; mature and childlike, and definitely memorable. What’s more, after visiting her website, it turns out that she has not only been featured in numerous fashion magazines on a regular basis (i.e. InStyle), but she is an avid philanthropist and based out of Austin, Texas (not even an hour and a half from myself).

That being said, I am now passing along her name to any other lost souls in the world who might have possibly, like myself, missed the memo.

Kendra Scott is fabulous!

Read about her company and view her collection at www.kendrascott.com.  Enjoy.
