Devon Baer Designs (and a giveaway!)


Hi guys and happy Tuesday! Today's post is special, because I'd like to introduce you to my new favorite jewelry/accessories designer and her Etsy store. (And how much do we LOVE Etsy?)

She is the newest sponsor of A Blonde Ambition, (notice her oh-so-lovely banner on my side nav) and a very sweet person. Her name is Devon Baer and her online store, Devon Baer Designs, is truly one-of-a-kind.

One of my favorite things about Devon is her use of color and pattern. Bright pinks, vivid turquoise and funky animal prints can be seen in many of her pieces. And, as we all know, bold hues and cheetah/zebra prints are super "in" this season. Two of my favorite items: the Beaded Beauty turquoise belt (photo below) and the Luxe for Spring belt.


Another one of my favorite elements of Devon's collection is the use of lace, pearls, crystals and ceramic objects within the designs. Items like her Lace and Pearl necklace and her Gray Bumble Clutch will totally show you what I'm talking about.

(Pictured above: Lace and Pearl Necklace and the Pearl Prepster Necklace)

Looking for a statement piece to wear with your Little Black Dress? Or, maybe you just need a new necklace to amp up your jeans and T-shirt ensemble...

Pictured above: Sparkle Bow Belt


Girls, I promise, you will LOVE what Devon has to offer. It's got A Blonde Ambition's seal of fashion approval, haha.

Note: Guys, (I know there are a few of you out there who read this blog), any of these items are guaranteed to please the lady in your life. They might even help get you out of the doghouse : )

Now, the moment I've been so excited to tell you about!

Devon has graciously offered to give away one of my personal fave items, the Pom Pom Flower and Chain Necklace, to one very lucky reader of A Blonde Ambition!
