Designer Valeria and myself showing off some Bombom Jewels
Thursday night I had my part-ay skirt on for my very first co-hosting event! The lovely jewelry company, Bombom Jewelry, invited me to co-host an event with them in their New York Pop-Up Shop. This was an opportunity I was over the moon about. Not only was it my first time being asked to do a co-hosting event, but it was with an amazing start-up company. Valeria started Bombom Jewelry with her mother Maria, both woman love jewelry and had always wanted to go into the jewelry business. Before Bombom was created Valeria worked in the financial business, where her love for office appropriate statement jewelry started. While Valeria loves the subtle statement makers, her mother on the other hand loves bold modern designs. Both ladies work together to come up with their own designs for the company. Even though they might have two different taste they make the line look cohesive.
Here is the thing that I love about this line. While their pieces are modern, fresh, and super wearable, they don't break the bank-- which is something I truly stand by. It's hard to find companies that make quality pieces but still make them affordable. A lot of the Bombom pieces run from $50 to $200. Some might say that the over $100 pieces might be pricey, but think about all the crappy costume jewelry that you buy that doesn't last. If your looking for a piece that you will always wear and that you want to last this is more then the right price. Not only do they make sure their pieces are beautiful, but they also make sure you are getting the right quality. Their jewelry is made of only the finest stones and metals. I mean really, how can you beat this?
I had the pleasure before the event going to the pop-up shop a couple of days before hand and talking with Valeria. It's hard sometimes to find genuine sweet people that have such raw talent. What I thought would be an hour meeting ended up being much longer then expected. I mean we chatted for hours about EVERYTHING. This made me even more excited about the event and working with her and the company. Thursday night came and we had a small gathering of people. I'm really blessed to have people in my life that stand behind me and that are willing to support me. It's great to have these people in your life. Sometimes, especially as a blogger, you feel discouraged but then amazing opportunities come to reassure you that you are meant to be doing what you are doing. That you are doing something right. The night was full of beautiful jewelry (that I got to play with all night), friends, chocolate, and champagne.

While at the event I had a table set up of my finds under $100 (which you can see above). Some pieces like the necklaces are pieces that you can only find at the Pop-Up shop. But below you can see more information on some of the pieces that I had picked out for the event, which are perfect gifts for the Holiday season!
