#birthdayfest2014: tuesday is for trinkets

I was wandering through Amsterdam on a Sunday in the summer of 2001 when I walked past a jewelry store that was closed, but in the window were the most beautiful and colorful necklaces I’d ever seen. They were costume-style pieces, but extravagant and bold and just the most gorgeous shades of the rainbow. As these things happen when you’re wandering through a foreign country, we never ended up walking by that store on a day it was open during the next week of our stay, and I never got to purchase any of those wares. But deep in my heart I still yearn for what I saw in that window that day…

When I happened upon some ridiculously bright baubles earlier this Spring with the same allure, I swiped them up without even hesitating. And then I went and bought a second set with April in mind.

And today, you can win both sets of these ridiculously bright and awesome earrings to dazzle and shine on your own!
