Opaleen Jewelry Review and Giveaway

Remember when you were a little girl, playing princess and wearing your mothers jewelry and clothes and feeling like the most beautiful girl in the world? Do you want to feel like that again? That is the exact feeling I got when I put on Opaleen jewelry for the first time!

Opaleen is a sophisticated and trendy jewelry company that sells unique and beautiful necklaces, rings, earrings, and bracelets. More about their products, direct from the Opaleen website "Modern, original, and elegant designs: that’s what we offer. And of course, all of that at the best value to you. We want our customers to love their jewelry, to feel fabulous and chic while wearing it, and most importantly, to be asked again and again, "Where did you get that jewelry?”
And I'll admit, I got asked that the first time I wore the Avellina Onyx and Silver ring yesterday at church. It was great sharing with someone who hadn't heard of Opaleen before, and I was able to encourage them to check out their online store! This ring is amazing, the online picture does not do it justice. It's strong, sleek, and despite being on the big side it did not overwhelm my small hand. I love wearing rings, I just have a hard time picking something that is trendy yet time-honored. Most of what I see in my local stores are gawdy and awkward feeling on my hand. Not my ring from Opaleen. Simple and elegant and chic!

I also had the privelege of reviewing of the Balbec Silver Bangles, set of 4. They are stunning! Each bracelet is different which adds to their uniqueness. I picked these bracelets with a certain event in mind-my husband and I will going to a very formal event soon, and I knew these bracelets would go perfect with my little black dress! These bracelets are delicate, I think you would get the same elegant feel from wearing all four at once to wearing just one. The cubic crystals really shine! Have you ever looked in the mirror when you're all dressed up and feel like your missing something? These silver bangles would be a perfect addition!

One thing that I think helps Opaleen stand out from other jewelry companies is their beautiful packaging. I was so impressed with they way they handle their jewelry-Opaleen gives you the same treatment and care with their packaging that you would get at any high end jewelry store.

Overall I was blown away from the look and the quality of the pieces I received. Opaleen really has an amazing selection of jewelry to choose from. They certainly did not disappoint from start to finish, their customer service is outstanding and they will cater to you as if you were their only customer-their philosophy is simple: customer satisfaction!
