I love jewelry. Like seriously love it. It doesn’t even have to be “real” as long as it’s blingy and dangly. I’m happy.
Actually the blinger and danglier the better.
Don’t you love it when you put on a pair of really great earrings, or a fabulous sparkly ring?
It makes me feel more confident. puts a little bounce in my step. In fact I often channel my inner KariAnne (who is the queen of confidence building, dangle, blingy earrings) when I put on a new pair.
Even better is getting new dangly blingy earrings in pretty boxes wrapped in white ribbon! I mean really. It’s a whole lot nicer to receive something in a box like this for Mother’s Day.
Than say a new blender or toaster. Not that I don’t appreciate my blender or toaster, but there’s just not quite as blingy as pretty new earrings like these
But here’s the deal. Let’s be honest. Often our sweet husbands and darling children don’t always quite know what we want for Mother’s Day. We usually say, “oh whatever you want to get me is fine.” or “yes I would love another set of dish towels and a new spatula.” But what we REALLY want is something frivolous and yet so necessary for confidence building and overall well being…pretty dangly earrings.
This is when a Momma has to take matters into her own hands! Like I did with my pretty new earrings from Blue Nile. Oh wait you thought Blue Nile was only for fancy engagement rings and wedding bands…nope. You can get pretty bangles and bubbles perfect for everyday or a dinner out without breaking the bank. Especially if you may or may not be picking out your own Mother’s Day gift. 😉
I love you all so much I want to give one of YOU a pair of your own confidence building, dangly blingy earrings for Mother’s Day! I’ll even mail it to you in your own pretty blue box with a white bow and a few extra goodies to show you how much I appreciate you!

Disclosure: I was provided one pair of earrings for review and one pair to giveaway. All opinions, blinginess and overall confidence is purely my own! Please see our disclosure statement for more details.
I would buy myself a really nice pair of sunglasses. My last night pair (a gift) were run over (by me! by accident) and now am wearing a pair from the dollar store…the only ones that I actually liked.
I would find it hard to spluge on myself, like many of us. However, I would would buy myself a layered necklace because I love the look of several chains worn together with various charms attached. Looks pretty with a shirt or dress…and would be fun to wear!
Frivolous? Hmm…I think diamond studs for the “extra” holes in my ears!
The frivilous things I might buy is jewelry. If I see a piece I just have to have. I will scrimp and save until I have enough to get it. Jewelry is a weakness of mine. I luvvvvvvvvve jewelry!
Darn that blogger… it ate my comment. As I was saying… you met the jewelry princess because I am the jewelry queen! I love earrings better than I love dishes, and that is saying a whole lot!
Thanks for the giveaway and feeding my addiction… er, appreciation of jewelry!
Blue Nile has gorgeous things! I am loving gold again… and the basketweave bracelet is perfection for daily wear!!! Wait till I show my husband… this would be a great extra Mother’s day gift!!!
Thanks so much!
I think we all need some Karianne earrings for Haven! I would totally buy myself a maid!! Those earrings are just lovely!!
Oh My, Frivolous.?? I think I would buy a trip for our family to the South 🙂 They love it there!! Okay Those earrings are GORGEOUS and so is their website. I am a Pearl girl and love all their pearl bracelets but if I had too choose one, it would be the Mother of Pearl in Gold.. So Pretty!
Thanks for sharing this with us 😉
xoxo
Oooh, I think I would just buy plane tickets for my husband and me to travel somewhere fun, perhaps New Zealand.
I would buy myself a cute little cottage somewhere near a lake where it is quiet.
If price were no object I would get this: Asscher-Cut Hoop Diamond Earrings in Platinum (7.50 ct. tw.)
$28,500
I love Blue Nile!
What totally fun earrings! Love them. If I could buy myself anything I wanted I’d buy the lenses and camera gear I’ve been wanting!
I’m not very frivolous — at not least for myself. I’d rather buy things for our home — so I’m going to say… a new comfy chair for our living room — and a matching ottoman!!! (There, how’s that for frivolous?)
I love the heart-tag bracelet in sterling silver.
I think I need a pair of dangly, blingy, earrings. Don’t have any of those at all.
I would probably get a really nice leather purse…if I had extra cash!!
I love the freshwater pearl with the heart clasp.
Thanks for giving me a chance to win those, WOW like them a lot
if money was no object I want 3 caret ring ,pear shaped please , white gold, please thank you LOL (dream on Janice )
I would have my house cleaned while I went shopping.
diamond – emerald cut eternity ring – what bling!!!!
I’ve been hurt and out of a job so that really would be frivolous!
I would love to go to Israel if I have the money but if have to choose the jewelry I would love to have diamond stud or emerald ring 🙂
I’d buy a new wedding ring – I lost mine 🙁

Love the Four Stone Emerald Diamond Engagement Ring – my dream ring 🙂
Dreaming big and frivolous – retiring to a cabin in the mountains of southern New Mexico, the land of enchantment.
If I could, I’d buy all of the silver jewelry, love the little bow tie earrings and tear drop ones. Bracelets – the ameythyst because it’s my birthstone – three row strand is gorgeous – wonderful idea!
Happy Mother’s Day to everyone.
I would by me a sports car!! But that is just a dream. For now I’ll stick to the Mommy van Taxi!!
Oh, wow, those are some seriously gorgeous earrings!!
The most frivolous thing I’d buy for myself is a passport and an airplane ticket so I could travel to see my folks. I haven’t seen them in six years and they won’t be around too much longer.
Oh how I would love a new vehicle without a monthly payment. Is that too frivolousness? I’m 52 years old and I’ve never owned a brand new vehicle. How sad is that?
Forgot to mention that this diamond ring would be what I would select if I could select anything from Blue Nile https://www.bluenile.com/tapered-bullet-diamond-engagement-ring-platinum_27487
My weakness….is jewelry, too! That, and totes/purses, are what I spend the little bits of ‘mama money’ I can scrimp up! Though I love earrings and necklaces I would have to say that bracelets are my absolute favorite at the moment. I can look down at my wrist at any point in the day and just smile! My choice from the Blue Nile site: Trio Gemstone bracelet. Love.
If I purchased something frivolous for myself I would get some jewelry or a nice purse. I tend to buy things that I need for the house so a cute Coach purse would be cool. Thanks for the earing giveaway. They are darling!
If my was no option, the item that I would select from the Blue Nile is a Princess Cut Diamond for my wedding band. That would make me so happy!
OOps, That should read, “If money was no option”….
Love to purchase stuff for myself
it makes me happy and special …. 🙂
