Debra Leather Like  Hexagon Chandelier Earrings

Jewelry can add so much versatility to your existing wardrobe. The Philadelphia area online jewelry and accessories company Sonia V. Boutique offers affordable jewelry and accessory options for ladies. The details on how to enter the giveaway and win these earrings is at the bottom of this post.

Here is a brief interview from Sonia V. Boutique's founder, Sonia Patel:

Shen Dove: When did you start your jewelry company? What motivated you to start your business? 

Sonia Patel: I started my business under another name in November 2011 and then officially as Sonia V Boutique in February 2012. I used to work in the pharmaceutical industry and left that job to spend more time with my two young boys. After contemplating it for a while, I kept coming back to my childhood dream of having "a women's shop" - my original dream was a dress shop/boutique but created my business model as a traveling/mobile boutique which has now morphed into an online boutique I decided to start out with accessorizing those clothes I dreamt of and so went into Jewelry and Accessories. I hope to still venture into clothing in the near future. 

Shen Dove: Describe the type of customer (style-wise) that you curate your jewelry for? 

Sonia Patel: I love to style a women from 20-60 years of age that likes to make a statement through their style. It could be a subtle style or even a bit wilder. I actually cater to many styles of a woman that keeps up with the trends of today! 

Shen Dove: What do you like most about having a jewelry company? 

Sonia Patel: Firstly I love helping other women find jewelry and accessories that help them express their style and stay trendy yet unique. I feel women most times forget about themselves and then find it too expensive to express their style, so they just forget about it. But I love being able to bring that back to them.

Shen Dove: What is your favorite jewelry piece of the moment from your collection?

Sonia Patel:  I'm not sure I have a favorite piece, but I really like a style that is edgy yet classic. That would describe my style and I like to see that in my collection.

Silvery Holiday Look + Giveaway {Closed}

Hi Friends! Burlington Coat Factory contacted me about participating in a holiday style challenge. As a girl on a budget, I am quite familiar with the store.  They provided me with a $100 gift card to create a holiday look and also gave me a second $100 giftcard to raffle to you lovely readers!

I went to a nearby Burlington in Maryland and perused the store for my items. I was a little nervous about finding shoes that fit me but I managed to find a pair in my size. I basically built my outfit around my shoes and came up with a New Year’s eve look. The skirt is a bit shorter than what I’d normally wear, but overall, I like the look. I had my heart set on adding a topper of some sort to my look, but didn’t see one that worked with the pieces I picked. 

The cost break breakdown is below.

Sequin Skirt: $ 15.99 + Top:$14.99  + Shoes:$24.99  + Earrings:$5.99 + Necklace: $7.99+ Cuff Bracelet:$5.99 + Clutch: $12.99 = TOTAL: $88.93

To be entered into the giveaway for the $100 Burlington Coat Factory gift card;

follow @BCFtweets on Twitter, Like the Burlington Coat Factory on Facebook and leave a comment below (please include your email address). 

I'd love to hear what you plan to wear for the holidays in your comment!  Entries will be accepted until 12 midnight (EST) on Monday, January 2nd. I will announce the winner on January 3rd.  

Good luck!
