Calypso Studios: Gorgeous Jewelry (+Giveaway)

I love jewelry, and I love finding and sharing companies with all of you that I adore, including Calypso Studios! 

 

I actually discovered Calypso Studios a while back, but only recently had the chance to work with them.  In case you aren’t familiar with Calypso Studios allow me to introduce you…

 

“Calypso Studios debuted in January 2007 with a line of jewelry and accessories created from the earth's natural elements: clay, shell and glass. The new line was immediately embraced and praised for the unique designs and mediums. The designs are on-trend and span the ages in both technique and the persons choosing these distinctive and exclusive designs. More than a conversation piece, Calypso Studios jewelry symbolizes good taste for an independent spirit. It is our hope that this art will bring much pleasure to who wear it. Calypso Studios jewelry indeed serves to commemorate life’s happy moments.”

 

I was actually surprised at the selection from Calypso Studios, they literally have every item of jewelry you could want or need; Necklaces, bracelets, rings, chokers, and SO much more.  There’s no way I could have chosen one item to review because everything is just so gorgeous and eye catching—thank goodness I didn’t have to pick just one item!

 

 

A couple of weeks ago Calypso Studios sent me a few pieces of their gorgeous jewelry to review…and I was in heaven!  I received pieces from a few of their many lines including the Carnival and It’s a Wrap lines.  While I loved all of the pieces I definitely had my favorites; I completely adore the It’s a Wrap bracelet I received and  bonus it can also double as a cute headband…my daughter rocked this look to perfection!  My absolute favorite piece of jewelry from Calypso Studios is without a doubt the Phoenix Red Sundance multi-strand necklace (pictured above)…simply stunning and so fierce!  I don’t usually wear necklaces, mainly because my children like to play, “let’s pull the necklace off mommy’s neck” game when I do, but this one I have wore so many times and I receive a ton of compliments every time that I do.  From gorgeous sea glass bangles to their beautiful and functional S.H.O.P Totes, Calypso Studios knows fabulous and so can you!

 

From the amazing colors to the elegant simplicity of Calypso Studio’s many pieces it’s very easy to fall in love with what Calypso Studios does! 

 

I actually have a chance for one very lucky MIBR reader to fall in love with Calypso Studios too!  One lucky MIBR reader is going to win her choice of jewelry piece from the Sundance collection (my favorite)!  Details on how you can win below!

Calypso Studios S.H.O.P. Totes Giveaway!!!

As you all know Earth Day is fast approaching (April 22nd.) and everyone is getting into the spirit! I have to admit that I'm not super "green" but I've been introduced to so many great eco-friendly products lately that I'm definitely more conscious than I was before!

I figure the best way I can help spread the word is to S.H.O.P. (Start Helping Our Planet) alright so it wasn't my idea but it's a great one! Calypso Studios launched a super cute eco-friendly line of reusable grocery bags in January of this year and they are called S.H.O.P. Totes! The art for the bags is absolutely gorgeous and they are even being used by celebrities (Calypso Studio S.H.O.P. Totes were included in the swag bags for this years Oscars (how cool is that)!

Why should you use reusable grocery bags? How about some facts about plastic bags...

• Each year, an estimated 500 billion to 1 trillion plastic bags are consumed worldwide.
• According to the EPA, over 380 billion bags are used in the USA every year, which is more than 1200 per resident and it takes about 12 million barrels of oil to make this many bags.
• Over 46,000 pieces of plastic are floating in our oceans worldwide.
• Each reusable bag you use has the potential to eliminate an average of 1000 bags over its lifetime.

What more reason do we need? And Calypso Studio is going to "green" up some very lucky winners lives for Earth Day! They are having a huge Earth Day giveaway so head on over to Calypso Studios and register for your chance to win one of these very stylish totes! But hurry the giveaway ends tomorrow @ noon!
