Why shop online?

The main reason is staying home.

Let's narrow down shopping online - Kiyonna and Stella & Dot.

Kiyonna
Stylish Plus Size Clothing at www.Kiyonna.com!

Women are pressured by society to be a certain size.  Fashion week models do not exactly help the cause for women of any size to look and feel their best, feel the most confident, and feel the most secure.  I am a plus size - size 16 jeans and 3X tops.  I would like to lose weight and lower my sizes, but for now I am okay.

So why shop Kiyonna online?  If I were to shop in person, I might feel nervous to go straight to the plus size section as though I did not want anyone to know.  Yet Kiyonna has so much to offer, clothing can still be viewed up close, and there is no shame ever in shopping for plus size clothing.  The tops, bottoms, and dresses range in the same retail cost as in-person.  The apparel is on trend and, as the link states above, very stylish.  The variety is likewise phenomenal, from style to occasion to types of fabric.  Kiyonna is simply a must when shopping online.

Stella & Dot
Stella & Dot jewelry

As the link states above, Stella & Dot is foremost defined by fashion jewelry - necklaces of all styles, bracelets of all styles, earrings of all styles, and rings.  Yet there is something intriguing about Stella & Dot...products offered are beyond just jewelry.  Stella & Dot has a clothing line, versatile bag styles, and connections with major designers such as Rebecca Minkoff.

The price range on Stella & Dot is the same as retail in-person.

So why shop Stella & Dot?  The jewelry, the clothing, the accessories, the major connections, and so much more yes.  However, when you shop Stella & Dot, you are supporting budding entrepreneurs hoping Stella & Dot will be thee career.

And so I conclude today's Author's Note.  There are definite perks to shopping online, from Kiyonna plus to Stella & Dot luxe.  If I spark interest, explore and enjoy!

Paparazzi

"Jules!  Jules!" shouts from eager paparazzi with shimmering camera flashes much like sparkling diamonds.

Juliet "Jules" Hennessey was a global A-list actress known for her breadth of film, television, and vocal performances.  Her leading roles in film led to several Oscar nominations and wins.  Her leading roles in television led to several Emmy nominations and wins, as well as long-term syndication with translation in many countries (and to further mention substantial royalties on a weekly basis).  She was profoundly talented in so many ways, but Hollywood was not her first passion.

Jules simply loved designing fashion jewelry.  When she was much younger, she dabbled in jewelry sketches but soon realized that drawing was not one of her many talents.  She was self-taught in design and learned how to physically make jewelry of all kinds by carefully studying online video tutorials.  Time, perseverance, some frustration, and admittedly a few tosses in the garbage led her to now.  She used only the best - Swarovski crystals of all sizes and textures, genuine gemstones of all sizes and textures, Swarovski pearls, glass multi-colored beads, pendants, charms, faux leather, decorative flower petal spacer beads, gold and silver metal chains, gold and silver metal plating, and silver wire.

She made necklaces, from chokers to long pendants to fancy pearls to bold statements with large gemstones (some with metal chains, some with string wire, and all with a lobster clasp).

She made bracelets, from charms to beaded stretch to cuffs to leather stud wraps (the charm bracelets were secured as a toggle or lobster clasp and the leather wraps were secured with a snap button).

She made earrings, from studs to dainty drops to hoops of all sizes to delicate designs using a mix of small crystals and small gemstones (all with a variety of backings).

She made adjustable sized rings lavishly decorated with encrusted crystals.  She hoped to someday learn how to design fashion rings with a wedding theme.

Her love was just a hobby.  Yet her hobby soon became a small business when she found enough time to focus on her designs.  Her small business soon became a booming business with hired assistants.

Her designs were a phenomenal success in mass and small retail and among fellow celebs.  She briefly considered leaving Hollywood to focus solely on her jewelry business, but knew that her fans nonetheless wanted to see her on screen.

And so while Juliet was a famous actress ranked highly among critics, Jules was ranked highly for her jewels.

Sparkling paparazzi camera flashes shimmered especially at jewels worn by Jules.
