Disclosure: This post is brought to you by Cate & Chloe. I was provided with product for review in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts expressed are my own, as are any photos included. No other compensation was given.
I’m absolutely thrilled that I was asked to review the Cate & Chloe VIP membership and two of their pieces of jewelry. I am a self-admitted tomboy, but when I go out with my fiancé (soon-to-be husband) I like to look good for him. We don’t get a lot of opportunity to go out together and enjoy each other’s company. We spend most of our time running errands, so when we actually get a night together that doesn’t involve running around like crazy, I jump at the chance to dress up for him…to feel pretty. And maybe to make his heart race a little.
And what better way to get that feeling then with sparkling jewels? The right piece of jewelry can make a girl feel like a million bucks. And when I feel pretty, I’m more confident and my fiancé loves that. He finds it sexy.
I put off sharing this review of the jewelry I received from Cate & Chloe solely because I wanted to take photos of them alongside my wedding dress. I felt after seeing them that they deserved to be shown in the best light, and what better way to do so then on me (the bride) on her wedding day when I’m glowing with happiness? However, I realized I probably wouldn’t have a chance to write the review while on our honeymoon, so I figured I would post it now and update later with new photos of me dressed to the nines.
Packaging:
As you can see, the box the jewelry came in had an elegant look to it. I’ve received several different types of subscription boxes to review over the past year and this one definitely stood out. Not only because of the color combination but because of the unique shape of the box. (Note: I’m not sure if every month the box looks like the one above.)
The actual jewelry box was also very elegant looking. (I loved the gold stamp!)
And the hand-labeled envelope? A great touch!
And what was inside the included card was extremely sweet and actually something that I put in a memory box for my fiancé and me.
The wedding well-wishes included meant a lot to not only but my fiancé as well. It told me that the company appreciates their customers and goes above and beyond to make them feel special.
Before the review items were sent to me, I spoke via email with one of the ladies who works at Cate & Chloe. I told her that this review request came at a great time because I was getting married and had not purchased any earrings or a necklace to wear during the wedding. They told me to pick out what I wanted. I didn’t expect to get the necklace and earrings. I was over the moon excited when I saw I did. I actually cried.
So what was inside that beautiful box? The stunning Kayla “Slim” Pearl Pendant Necklace and the Kayla “Slim” Pearl Earrings.
When the light catches this set just right, they truly sparkle. And when I wear them, I feel elegant and beautiful….like a real princess, which is EXACTLY the feeling my fiancé wants me to have on our wedding day.
And as I’m sure you can tell for yourself, these two pieces are absolutely gorgeous and would make any woman feel the way I do when I wear them. Seriously, I can’t wait for my wedding day to get here so I can wear them. Only nine days to go!!
Though I can’t reveal my entire dress because I’m keeping it a secret from my fiancé, here you can see part of it, along with my earrings and necklace. I can’t wait to share my photos of the big day with you so you call can see just how well pieces went with my dress and hair.
About My Pieces:
Both feature CZ (cubic zirconia) detailing and pearls. The posts on the back of the earrings are butterfly ones. As for the necklace, it’s 18″ long and has a standard clasp.
To be honest, the $39.99 per month you’re paying for two pieces of jewelry is a steal. Separately, the earrings cost $112 and the necklace costs $109.
