Stellar & Dot

Jewelry company Stella & Dot is, in a word, stellar.

When I first saw the line elegantly displayed at the Crave Portland Holiday Shopping Party in December, I couldn’t wait to get my hands on them. The pieces are beautiful, eye-catching and surprisingly affordable.

I had planned on attending the company's trunk show here in Portland this past weekend, but unfortunately the weekend got away from me. I would have loved to have seen the new Spring/Summer collection first hand. You see, Stella & Dot cannot be found in stores. Their unique selling structure means you can only get a peek of the line at trunk shows and events. A trained stylist helps you match the jewelry to your personalized needs. This creates a special, one of a kind shopping experience.

(If the personal shopper structure doesn't appeal to you, you can also shop on their website.)

I did sneak a peek at the new pieces online. The collection ranges from bright exotics to soft romantics. Here are a few of my favorites:
