Vintage Schoffel Brooch/Pendant Necklace

I was born in an era when gold was the most desirable jewelry.  Didn't matter what we wore it with, if we were lucky enough to have some, gold is what we wore.

Years passed and silver became popular.  We wore huge silver earrings and jangly necklaces with our bell bottoms.  Trends dictated the gold or silver choice.

Now, in 2016, almost anything goes in the fashion world.  Gold and silver are both popular.  When choosing jewelry, we are interested in knowing which metals compliment our complexion and hair color when creating our own style.

We often want to give jewelry as a gift.  Is there a metals choice that suits all skin tones and hair colors? According to this article in the Huffington Post, rose gold works for everyone.

Wearing jewelry is one of the pleasures of being a woman. Looking at glittering necklaces and earrings is fun, and matching up our jewelry choices with a new outfit is a rush.  Having some color direction saves us precious time in our search.  I hope you found that direction today.

What Kind of Skin Care Products Work Best?

I used to know, but that was before my 60's sneaked up on me and shot that all to pieces.  I had good skin and didn't have to worry too much.  As long as I used a mild cleanser and moisturizer, I was OK.

Now I prowl the aisles with the other baffled women, trying to look like I can read all the tiny print on the countless boxes of products that claim to "turn back the clock" or "get rid of those pesky wrinkles around your eyes".  They all promise miracles and they all cost a fortune.  And that's just the brands you find at Target.

I don't ever shop at the department stores.  I am afraid I will find something that works and I won't be able to do without it, so I will be eating generic peanut butter sandwiches for the rest of my aging life. 

I am including a few links to some of the best skin care companies that I know of.  Their products are on par or better than the big box stores' products and have money-back guarantees.

Back in the day, I sold Shaklee skin care.  You know Shaklee, the direct selling company that is best known for their vitamins.
Their Infuselle Skin Care is fabulous!  My good friend, Deb Villarese, can hook you up if Shaklee is your choice. This brand is my favorite.

When my daughter, Kim Perry, decided to sell Mary Kay, I bought a sales kit, too.  I didn't make much money at it, but I had fun with all the pretty colored lipsticks and eye shadows.  The skin care is good, too.

Not everyone is into makeup like I am, but taking care of our skin is a great idea at any age.  As long as we don't expect a facelift in a bottle, we won't be disappointed.

After your skin is moisturized and your makeup looks great, take a peak at my Beverly's Jewelry Box website and treat yourself to a yummy necklace.  Remember, a little bit of bling is just the thing!

Hope you are having a glorious weekend.  Here in Wichita, it is 82 and sunny.  If only they would fix our pool heater...
