Chic ‘n Cheap Living Contest – Win aquamarine and moonstone earrings from Little Bit of Pretty

Etsy is truly an emporium of beautiful, curious, and unique things (and you deserve a little gift for you or a loved one).   I’m so happy I discovered this handmade marketplace as well as a few artisans behind some great shops on Etsy.

One new Etsy friend is Kimberley of Little Bit of Pretty. 
Her pieces have a natural, organic style reflected in her use of semi precious gemstones, swarovski crystals and pearls, freshwater pearls, sterling silver and gold fill.  These often have a final whimsical touch as seen in the adorable Keri – holiday edition (inspired by a necklace first worn by Keri Russell) and priced at only $35.

Kimberley first started making jewellery as a hobby while in university because she couldn’t afford it. She was at a corporate job for a year and then realized that she wanted to work on something that made her happy.

These delicate pearl hoops at $20 make me happy – they can be worn everyday or for a special occasion (right bridal buddies)?

She is inspired by images from everywhere – magazines, tv, movies – combining a nice design with her favorite materials.

Her ideal customer sounds like me and you!  Kimberley says “Someone who is fashion conscious, probably career oriented (but not necessarily so), someone with a busy schedule who likes to look pulled together all the time but doesn’t have the time to plan outfits and accessories ahead of time. Therefore my collection must be versatile – everything must go together and look good, and be able to be worn by itself as well.”

One of my favorite pieces are these Botswana Agate pendulum earrings – versatile and pretty, it pairs well with earthy tones and is a steal at $20.
