2012 Primetime Emmy Favorites

The only reason I watch awards shows, like the Primetime Emmy Awards, are for the amazing dresses, nails, makeup and shoes. The color of the night - 50 shades of red and orange. The color of the year is "Tangerine Dream" so it does not surprise me! There were also a few beautiful royal/cobalt blue dresses - which is a fall/winter color trend. Here are a few of my favorite looks from the night.

Stella & Dot Collaborates with Alice Temperley

I'm excited to share Stella & Dot's new partnership with famed British fashion designer Alice Temperley!

Launching on October 1, 2012, the collaboration consists of a series of whimsical charms inspired by Alice’s own extensive collection and personal icons with a feeling of the dream world of “Alice in Wonderland.” The collaboration collection will include 5 beautiful pieces (including 2 limited editions), priced from $39 to $158.

From Alice Temperley:
"When Stella & Dot approached me I was delighted to work with them; not only do they have a wonderful philosophy by offering opportunities to further and empower women in a fun and accessible way, I also was thrilled at the chance to create a jewelry line - I am a magpie at heart and jewelry has been a constant love,” says Temperley. […] “I hope I have created something that the Stylists of Stella & Dot relate to and find a little bit magical to add to their collections.”

From Blythe, Stella & Dot's Chief Creative Officer:
“We are thrilled to partner with Alice Temperley this Holiday season and have always admired her bold spirit and feminine aesthetic,” says Blythe Harris, Chief Creative Officer at Stella & Dot. “The vintage inspired, personally curated charms in the Wonderland Collection are the perfect complement to our existing charm and layering pieces. This collaboration was a natural fit for us, as we love to create timeless, beautifully handcrafted accessories for the woman-on-the-go, much like our customers and Stylists,” adds Harris.


More information about Alice and the beautiful ALICE by Temperley for Stella & Dot pieces coming soon!

Here's a thought... both Kate and Pippa Middleton are fans of Alice Temperley! Maybe we'll spot Stella & Dot on the Duchess soon...(my dream come true!)?

Stella & Dot: Bachelor Pad Finale Jewelry

Poor Rachel, literally. Her partner, Nick, chose to keep the $250,000 all to himself. Luckily for her, Stella & Dot jewelry is affordable and versatile. At least maybe she can borrow from Lindzi's jewelry box?

Lindzi was decked out in Stella & Dot jewelry on the Bachelor Pad 3 Season Finale! While looking lovely in pink, Lindzi completely her look with the Stella & Dot Tigris earrings, Bello bangle, Eleanor bangle and Rhea bangles. Talk about an arm party!

Stella & Dot: Foundation Bracelet & Charm

In 2011, the Stella & Dot Foundation built two schools in Nicaragua and funded three after-school programs through the sale of Foundation jewelry. In 2012, we plan to sell enough Foundation charms and bracelets to makeover a school and community center in the Bronx neighborhood of New York.

Through the sale of our Foundation pieces your efforts will benefit our three Foundation partners:

• Accion - committed to bringing affordable small business loans to microentrepreneurs
• Girls Inc- inspiring all girls to be strong, smart and bold
• buildOn- breaking the cycle of poverty, illiteracy, and low expectations through service and education

From September 1 through October 15, you can shop for a cause and help make a difference! Join me in supporting the Stella & Dot Foundation and buildOn to revitalize a school in the Bronx by purchasing any of our Foundation pieces - bracelets or charms at www.stelladot.com/wcfields! 

Additionally, during this time period, if I am able to sell enough Foundation jewels, I'll earn the philanthropic excursion to the Bronx in November 2012 to help remodel the school alongside other Stylists! I would love the opportunity to give back to our stateside community. I invite you to pick out your favorite Foundation piece and proudly know that each purchase will benefit these wonderful organizations!

Stella & Dot: Peyton Lambton of HGTV's Going Yard

Another adorable couple from The Bachelor franchise, Peyton Wright Lambton (Season 10 of The Bachelor - with Andy Baldwin - and Season 1 of Bachelor Pad) and Chris Lambton (Season 6 of The Bachelorette - runner up for Ali Fedotowsky) wed earlier this year and launched their own HGTV show, Going Yard.

While Peyton's bridesmaids all wore Stella & Dot earrings for the wedding styled by her maid of honor (another Stella & Dot Stylist), I was able to help get a few pairs of earrings to Peyton for the show!

In the final episode of the first season of Going Yard, Peyton and Chris redesigned their own backyard to celebrate their recent nuptials with family and friends. During the episode, Peyton was spotted in the coral Capri Chandelier Earrings and Bardot Hoop Earrings.

I would say that Peyton is a fan of Stella & Dot as she has been spotted in various other pieces from the collection, including the Adrienne Chain Earrings (on sale!) and Adrienne Chain Necklace!
