Styling Opportunities

Valentine’s Day was a week ago. Can you imagine how much money consumers spent on jewelry for this one day?


That’s a lot of money spent by a large portion of Americans.

If you were wondering, PANDORA heated up the valentine’s market this month. Everywhere I turned I saw the brand jumping out, enticing me to indulge and treat myself to some bling. I saw Jared’s Galleria commercials featuring PANDORA on ESPN (typical) and on ABC the days and week prior to the special day. I saw a charm on my instagram news feed (pictured below) that one of my followers purchased for her mother. Ellen Degeneres gave all of her audience members fabulous PANDORA necklaces on her Valentine's Day episode and I even spotted a dog handler sporting a stylish PANDORA charm bracelet during the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show on NBC last Monday night.

It seems that PANDORA successfully saturated our Valentine’s season and encouraged extreme consumerism in true American custom, but what’s next?



Whether you were part of the holiday consumer statistic or missed the chance to generously participate, I've got some styling opportunities for you to look out for:


Mardi Gras (2/21) Today is the day to let loose and step out of your comfort zone. Tomorrow begins 40 days of fasting!


St. Patrick’s Day (3/17)  The luck of the Irish could come in handy today.


The first day of spring (3/20) New season, new life, new charm...can't go wrong with that.
Easter Sunday (4/8) A day of faith.


Earth Day (4/22) Save the Pandas!



Mother’s Day (5/13) Great Mother of Pearl!

Prom Season (May – June) 
Think back to your wonder years when life was easy and all that mattered was the color of your prom dress.

Graduation Season (May – June) Whether it's graduation from high school or college, oh the places you'll go!
Of course leading up to…

Sizzling summertime (6/20) Shine bright!

What is a PANDORA bracelet?


For those of you who don’t know and I hope most of you do…
This is a PANDORA bracelet. Actually this is the bracelet that I plan to purchase next month as a birthday present to myself (3/22 if anyone is curious). 

Pictured above, my bracelet contains unique charms that I have chosen to represent my personal story. I have a turtle because I’m a TERP, a breast cancer bead for my mother, an assortment of pink because that’s my favorite color and many other charms that hold a special meaning to me. 

Women can visit PANDORA concept stores or even some authorized jewelers that carry the PANDORA brand to make their unique bracelet and proudly wear their stories. If you need to take your time to see what charms are available, I recommend going online to www.PANDORA.net to build your own bracelet with the bracelet designer. This way, you can virtually play around with the charms and see how they look in your preferred arrangement. 

PANDORA also makes more than charm bracelets. The company also produces necklaces, watches, earrings, stackable rings and other charming pieces. Don’t feel overwhelmed! I know it all sounds so great and you can’t wait to see more! Don’t worry; I will definitely showcase the other items in the upcoming weeks. I figured I’d start off with an original design by yours truly to give you a taste of PANDORA and a taste of me. Enjoy!
