We’re seeing a fashion trend lately….wearing lots of pearls at once!  It’s a great way to mix the real you already own with new jewelry in colors and different shapes.  If she doesn’t have a variety of pearls, she would love to get a new strand, something different, for Valentine’s Day!  Here is an example and some ways you can get this look at Ann’s:

Layering pearls of different shapes and colors is a fun way to wear a classic. Choose Majorica pearls for quality jewelry at a very affordable price!

A strand of white baroque pearls is so versatile.

 

A strand with mixed colors layers effortlessly with her classic white pearls.

 

Several strands of Majorica pearls worn together create the look!

New at Ann’s: a dramatic and stylish new look!  Long scarves of luxurious jersey knit are embellished with silver jewelry.  Wear it centered as you would a necklace with the scarf draped over your shoulders, or tie it around your waist for a belted accent.  The possibilities are numerous and the look is very fresh!  Choose a bright color or wear-with-everything neutral and be the first to wear a new look!

Winter is mostly over in Houston.  We start thinking about Spring right after Christmas, so it’s time for lighter colors and a lifting of spirits.  What’s more “spring” than pink flowers?

Ann’s pink rose with 24K gold tipped edges is a lovely variation on her favorite Gold Roses (click here to see these).  Make a bouquet of pink ones or mix the colors! 

Colored roses dipped in 24K gold, $74.50 each

Pink orchid, $245

 

Carry a pink rose umbrella to coax the rain (we need the Spring showers!) and lift your mood:

Small treasures are sometimes the best ones.  These jeweled animals are charming and collectible.  Snails, seahorses, cats, frogs, and more.  All have hidden interior compartment whose hinged lid opens to reveal the inside…will you discover something small within?

Golden snail, $79.50

Spring-time bunny with tiny pendant, $74

Kitten dancing, $74

 

Turtle pile up, $89.50

The best treatment for dry hands that we’ve found is Camille Beckman’s Hand Therapy.  It’s just the right consistency to absorb without leaving your hands greasy.  Camille Beckman products are made right here in the USA in a factory located outside of Boise, Idaho.  And it smells good!  Try some Tuscan Honey, it’s our best seller.  Comes in tub containers for your home and tubes for travel.

Although Lampe Berger has raised its price for fragrance, Ann’s is keeping our prices the same.  That means you continue to get a half-liter bottle of Lampe Berger for $18.95 each and the liter size for $31.95!  Happy New Year!

If you received a Lampe Berger for Christmas, have you used it yet?   If not, what are you waiting for?  Your Lampe Berger came with instructions, but here is the process in a nutshell:

Fill the lampe only half-way, no more.  There needs to be air in the lampe for it to work.  Insert the wick, let it soak for 20 minutes.  (Don’t “help” it saturate by swirling the lampe; let it saturate on its own.)  Now you’re ready to light the burner with a match.  Let it flame for 2 minutes.  The flame will flair up at first, then recede.  After two minutes, blow out the flame.  Place the grill over the now-hot burner.  Your lampe is now working taking odors out of the air and leaving it smelling like your fragrance!  To “turn it off,” remove the grill and place the small cap over the wick.   Please do not leave a burning Lampe Berger unattended.

You can burn your lampe all the time or just for a little while to clean your air.  Just be sure to let the wick saturate if it dries out.  A dry wick won’t light.

You can mix fragrances (stay with Lampe Berger fragrances to ensure no damage to the wick).  Or you can change fragrances.  Simply pour the fragrance back into the bottle (let the wick cool before you remove it!) and pour in another fragrance.  You may smell the first fragrance for a few minutes, but shortly the second will come through.

 Why not try a new fragrance to start your year right?  We love Fresh Linen for a clean scent.  It’s perfect after the holidays and comes in half liter and liter sized bottles.
