Presented by Stacia Smilek

 I have the distinct honor of welcoming a newcomer to our wonderful group of MBP Spotlight Sponsors this month! Welcome to Stacia Smilek, an Independent Consultant with Cookie Lee Jewelry. Stacia is a wife and mom, and business woman, connecting women with wonderful opportunities, and with beautiful jewelry! Stacia and I are working together for the first time this month, and she offered to send me a little goodie bag of jewelry from Cookie Lee.

I love jewelry. I find that I can express myself through the items I choose to wear, and jewelry plays into that as well. Cookie Lee has a lot of jewelry and accessories, appealing to every taste, to offer their hostesses and customers, so I knew I wouldn't be disappointed with whatever Stacia chose to send to me.

 Look at what I received from Stacia!

I loved how Stacia with Cookie Lee packaged my jewelry. Everything was tucked inside on a pink organza drawstring bag, with a handwritten note from Stacia. When consultants and business owners take the extra step to include a note like this, it really lets customers know just how much the consultant or owner cares about their business, and their customer relationships, too!

 Heart Pendant Necklace and Hoop Post Earrings by Cookie Lee

Okay, onto the jewelry... Stacia sent me a beautiful Heart Pendant Necklace, and a set of double hoop post earrings, too! Though I could definitely wear these pieces together, I chose to wear them separately- for now.

 What a wonderful addition to my ensemble!

The silver heart pendant is on a leather necklace cord, creating a beautiful combination. The necklace cord is black leather, and it's nice and thin. Instead of a clasp, the leather cord is held together by a tight silver bead, which you simply slide to lengthen or shorten the necklace. I am in love with this! I can wear this with any kind of neckline, because I can make the cord as long or as short as I want! Great idea, Cookie Lee designers! I also love that the silver heart pendant has lots of little hearts within the big heart. I first wore the necklace from Stacia with one of my favorite summer tops while out for a morning of shopping with Balian. I received a ton of compliments on it, with many people noting the unique combination of the leather cord and silver pendant.

 I like them, I love them, I want some more of them!

Next, I had to try the earrings from Stacia. I am not generally a wearer of large hoop earrings. I love the way they look, but I often feel that the shape of my face is just all wrong to wear these types of earrings. I knew that I had to give these a try, though. The design of the earrings alone, had me wanting to wear them. They are a unique twisted design of matte metal- a style and color that will go with virtually anything! I tried them on, and the first thing I noticed was how lightweight they are. Most large earrings pull my ear lobes in an uncomfortable, but I barely felt them while wearing them. The next surprise, was how great they looked! I mean, I knew the earrings would look great- but I didn't expect for them to look great on me! I was thrilled that I could pull off wearing them! When I e-mailed Stacia to tell her how much I was enjoying the jewelry she sent to me, she responded, with this, regarding the earrings, 'Yay...so glad you are embracing them! They can be intimidating to some people, but I LOVE them!' I love them, too, Stacia! And yes- I was definitely intimidated by them at first, but I am so glad that I went for it and decided to give them a try! I can't wait to add these to some of my favorite summer outfits!

Both of these gorgeous pieces of jewelry are from the Cookie Lee Special Edition Collection, and they are available for purchase, but you must contact Stacia directly, if you'd like to order them.
