The Ellie Bracelet

Evening Blingery Babes!

This week I have been busy creating my latest charity piece, I always like to help out where I can and last months Breast Cancer Bracelets were a huge hit and enabled me to raise some money for Breast Cancer Campaign. This month I am helping raise money for Ellie and The Neuro Foundation.....


Ellie has been diagnosed with NF1 a type of Neurofibromatosis, Ellie has brown patches on her skin commonly known as 'Cafe au lait' marks and her family are running a campaign to raise money for The Neuro Foundation.

It is simple you think of your favourite drink e.g. Beer, Coffee, Tea and you complete the sentence, "I swapped my (insert drink) for a Café au Lait" then you donate your average weekly / monthly or annual spend to raise money for Neurofibromatosis.

Ellie's page can be found here 'Ellie's Fundraising Page' and you can easily donate if you wish to swap your fave drink for a cafe au lait!

I have designed a bracelet to help raise extra money for Ellie and The Neuro Foundation! Ellie's fave colour is pink so Ive made a super girly pink bracelet and £2 from every sale goes straight to Ellie's fundraising page!

The Ellie Bracelet is made with Plum coloured Crystal Faceted Beads and silver spacers, finished with a gorgeous little drop heart charm. Ellies mum told me that Ellie's chinese name is sum sum which means 'Heart'

The bracelet can be purchased at blingery.co.uk and costs £6.99 of which £2 is donated


The Neuro Foundation's vision is to improve the lives of those affected by Neurofibromatosis. Every day a baby is born in the UK with NF. There are over 25,000 people in the UK affected by the condition and as yet there is no cure. Please visit nfauk.org for more information

I myself have a form of NF and have a Plexiform Tumor in my nose, I know what it is like to have this and although I do consider myself very lucky I know how people suffer. I have a lot of this I want to do for this charity and a lot of messages I want to get across but my first thing it to raise some money for the charity by selling as many of the Ellie bracelet as I possible can......that is where you come in ;-)

Please take a look and bear in mind the donation you will be making with your purchase of this gorgeous bracelet, and Thank You xx

A trip back into Bloggington.......

Blingery Meets Star Style...... Cheryl Cole

Morning! I hope everyone is enjoying a Fab Friday, Im on my 3rd coffee of the morning and feeling good!

Ive recently been searching the net for simple summer looks for work and came across this gorgeous piccy of Cheryl Cole in a simple yet stylish get-up!

Wearing some beautifully flattering high waisted grey trousers with a simple white vest top tucked in creates a great look!

Wear this to the office then nip out for a meal and drinks after work and still look amazing.....no need to go home and change, works for me!

Though in saying that I think Cheryl is missing something.......

I would definitely team this look with a bit of Blingery (Its my blog I can do what I like lol) and my Purple Swarovski Necklace would look amazing against this white vest

This piece is made with gun metal chain and 12 genuine Swarovski 6mm Xilion Crystals in Amethyst and looks Fab when it catches the light.

It is a 38" long continuous loop and will literally 'bling' up any outfit!

Priced at £12.00 only at www.blingery.co.uk - Limited supply so go get yours now, more colours coming soon....

Enjoy Your Friday,
Love, B xx

Blingery Meets Star Style...... Eva Longoria

Afternoon Blingery Babes!

Ive been thinking of a new feature for a while now and this is the first of many 'Blingery Meets Star Style' blog posts,

Each week I will choose one my fave celebs in some very stylish get-ups and team them with some Blingery, simples!

First up, the Gorgeous Eva Longoria with a lasting favourite of Fitted Blazer and Skinny Jeans combo

Perfect for the transition of Day to Evening wear

and check out those nude patent platforms......lush!

Now Im loving the Navy bag but I have had my eye on a Paul's Boutique 'Olivia' bag for a while now, im thinking if I blog about it I have to buy it right? So I would team it with this sailor style bag.
Available at www.pauls-boutique.com priced at £76.00

Now for the bit of Blingery, Im going to continue on the stripey road and suggest the 24" long 'Striped Heart Necklace' which would look fab against the grey and white contrast of the top and blazer! Priced at £7.99 only at www.blingery.co.uk


Now all I have to do is Buy.That.Bag and think of a Star Style for next week!

Love, B x

My trip to Bath

I have had a lovely day in Bath and wanted to share with you my beads from a gorgeous little bead shop I found! I was in there for about an hour with my fiance following me round the shop with a box and a clipboard to keep track of my purchases!!

The main reason for our trip was to visit the Roman Baths, this was absolutely amazing and along with the audio tour was so interesting! The natural hot spring looked great and the history surrounding the natural healing properties was fascinatng. I would fully recommend a visit if you can!

Cant wait to use my new beads and get creating, piccys will of course be coming soon!

Have a great weekend you lot :-)

Love Always, B x

Folksy Friday......Pearly Pieces

Now, I am a serious lover of pearls especially the vintage look they bring with them! But you can do anything with pearls these days and coloured pearls make for some really contempary styles.

Go take a look and see what you find....

Happy Friday
