Falling in Love With: Galit Barak Jewelry Review

Still looking for something amazing and unique to give your Valentine this year? Well look no futher than Galit Barak Jewelry an amazing etsy shop that is full of amazing and intricate jewelry.

This is the second time that Galit Barak Jewelry has been featured on the Giveaway Diva in fact she was the second giveaway ever! I credit her with really putting my name out and really inspiring me to keep up with blogging since so many people entered the giveaway!



Galit Barak Jewelry features amazing and very intricate crochet wire jewelry and she is so talented because as a fellow crafter I know how difficult it is to crochet with yarn much less metal wire!

All her jewellery is made with sterling silver 925 or 14 karat gold filled, semi-precious stones and pearls, so you know they will be guaranteed to stand the test of time and last! You can really tell that she put a lot of love and attention in every piece she makes.


My Review:


I was sent the amazing Pearl Post Earrings with Crochet Gold Wire from Galit Barak Jewelry


These amazing earrings were made with 14 karat gold filled wire which was lovingly crocheted around beautiful fresh water pearls.


Look at the amazing detail on the side of the earrings! I love how they look like bright shiny eggs nestled in a golden nest.

Each piece from Galit Barak Jewelry comes in a special gift box ready for easy gift giving! I love how these amazing earrings featured in the review are only $25!!!

If you love these earrings as much as I do you will be so happy to know that I will be giving away a pair! So look out for that!

Falling in Love with: Beth Devine Designs Reveiw

Valentine's Day is fast approaching and what better way to show your love for that special women in your life than by giving them an amazing piece of jewelry?




Beth Devine Designs features breathtaking handmade designer jewelry that is not only perfect for presents but as the focus during special occasions. Beth Devine Designs features handmade earrings, necklaces and bracelets that are classic pieces that can be worn casually at day or paired with a flirty dress when going out.



Each Beth Devine Designs creation features high quality materials and metals including gemstones, Swarovski crystal, seashells and coral. I love the fact that Beth Devine Designs pieces come in many different price points that can work well for your budget.

My Review:



Each Beth Devine Designs comes in an amazing gift box so that you don't have to wrap it and it's perfect for gift giving


I love Beth Devine Designs beach inspired creations and she features many pearls and colours that are reminiscent of the ocean and the beach.


The first item that I was sent was the amazing Pearl & Moonstone Bracelet

The Pearl & Moonstone Bracelet features large oval pearls on sterling silver and it has a light sprinkling of moonstone to add an extra glimmer.


I love the fact that you can customize this bracelet and you can choose to have it in different metals such as gold filled. Also you can change the bracelet size according to how small or big your wrist may be.


This amazing bracelet is $64 and is a great neutral so that it goes well with anything that you wear.


The second item that was sent to me was the amazing Sea Spray Necklace


The Sea Spray Necklace is so amazing and really does remind me of the delicate foam of the ocean spray with it's large keshi pearls and the lustrous rainbow moonstones that make up this amazing cascade necklace. I love the clasp of this necklace and how it's a fishook closure which is quite different from your regular lobster claw or clasp closure. And every Beth Devine Designs piece has so much great detailing in that they finished off the closure with a tiny pearl and two moonstones.

I think this necklace would be perfect for a bride because not only is it stunning but it is simple enough that you can wear it once your wedding is over! And everytime you wear it you will be reminded of your special day

All the items that were sent to me from Beth Devine Designs would be perfect as a bridesmaid's gift! Can you imagine all of your bridesmaids wearing this delicate and amazing necklace and bracelet?

If you love Beth Devine Designs as much as I do you will be so happy to hear that there will be a giveaway soon! Look out for that! =)

Falling in Love with Event Launches Tomorrow!


Love is in the air! I want to share with you my favorite products in my annual Falling In Love with Event! If you are stumped with what to get your loved one for Valentine's Day have no fear because I have some amazing items as well as giveaways!! So look out for that heading your way tomorrow!

Golden Globes Fashion

I love award shows because you get to see some of the most amazing dresses and jewels. Yesterday's Golden Globe Awards was no exception and the dresses were so amazing.

Here are my top looks of last night!

Sofia Vergara has amazing curves and she's not afraid to flaunt her figure in this amazing Vera Wang.

I love Marchesa gowns and Shailene Woodley looked amazing in this art-deco inspired dress.

Nicole Kidman looks amazing in Versace and proves that gold and silver can and do mix amazingly!

I absolutely loved the drama of Evan Rachel Wood's Gucci dress! The dress featured sequins, feathers and even scales.

I love Charlize Theron's take on the Grecian gown look with her blush Dior Haute Couture gown. It was such a sexy take on the trend and I loved how she polished off her look with a headband.


Angelina Jolie is a definite love! Love the pop of red on her ivory Atelier Versace gown and that she decided to do bold accessories that matched the red of her dress including an amazing Christian Louboutin clutch and a red lip.

What was your favorite looks from last night?
