Stella & Dot Review and Giveaway

June 12, 2010

***This contest is now closed. Congratulations Teresha! An email has been sent.***

Stella & Dot was founded by busy mother of two, Jessica Herrin. She co-founded weddingchannel.com in 2004 and wanted to put her business and creative talents to good use. With an education from Stanford combined with real world experience, Jessica was able to find a balance between career and home by creating Stella & Dot. She established a vision for this company by developing a business based on the concept of marketing a fabulous product through e-commerce and social networking as its foundation. This has lead to the major success of women running their own businesses representing Stella & Dot in the last few years.

I was introduced to Stella & Dot for the first time by an independent consultant, Seana Kromann, and I have to tell you I am very impressed. Part of the immediate draw for me (other than the gorgeous jewelry) was reading about how this company was established. Many young women with drive and determination have paved the way to show that with some creativity and hard work a “big idea” can turn into a reality. The founder and creative director of Stella & Dot certainly emulate this. I have read about this company in the press before but haven’t had the opportunity to try the product until now. I reviewed The Garden Party Chandelier Earrings in ivory:

These gorgeous earrings have gold plated brass and hand painted enamel. They also have 14kt gold wires. Lately, I’ve been in need of sprucing up my wardrobe and feeling good about the way I look as a WAHM so these earrings are the perfect start. They are a wonderful accessory for date night with the hubs but I must tell you that they totally give me that beauty boost even when I am just running out with the kids to the store. I was impressed with how adorable and well made the earrings are in addition to what I have read. Stella & Dot is certainly a company that has built an amazing brand and it is one I fully endorse. They truly have an amazing product!
