Mother’s Day is fast approaching and this special day is the perfect time to show your Mother, or Mother of your children, just how special she is! The new “Flowerbox” necklace from Twisted Silver is a fabulous way to make Mother’s Day special since it can hold a special surprise inside!

Twisted Silver’s new “Flowerbox” necklace offers a large, locket-style box adorned with a sweet flower made from aged copper and brass. The roomy box can hold anything special which your Mother, or Mother of your children, would find meaningful. The “Flowerbox” necklace can easily house one or more photos, a lock of hair; or any memory you can think of!

This beautiful and meaningful necklace offers a long, adjustable chain so Mom will be able to adjust the length of the necklace to suit her ensemble and/or taste. Love that! Of course the flower allows the “Flowerbox” necklace to also fit into spring/summer 2013’s hot floral trend; which happens to be continuing into fall 2013. Love that too!

The “Flowerbox” necklace debuts online today at Twisted-Silver.com for $50. Use coupon code INSIDERS for a 15% discount. Happy shopping, Happy Mother’s Day, and stay fabulous

Laura Mercier has a new fragrance for the fall season which has been added to her line of body products this month; the new scent is warm “Ambre Vanille!” Ambre Vanille is perfect for the fall season as it combines warm woods, florals and sweet vanilla to create a warm and cozy fragrance expereience for the moderate to cool weather found in autumn. Ambre Vanille by Laura Mercier also happens to contain Fall’s ultimate “HipNote” of sandalwood. Love this!
Top notes: tangerine, coconut, almond

Middle notes: tiger orchid, milk flower, helitrope

Base notes: vanilla beans, brown sugar, sandalwood

Laura Mercier’s new fragrance Ambre Vanille is available at Sephora.com in a honey bath soap at $40, a bath scrub priced at $46 and a body cream priced at $55.
I tested out the Body Cream and it was A-MA-ZING! As is always the case with Laura Mercier’s body cream, the Ambre Vanille body cream is moisturing without leaving a greasy film and locks in your skin’s moisture. As someone who has sworn by Laura Mercie’s body creams for the past ten years, I am in love with this new scent! Ambre Vanille is a must try.
I rate Laura Mercier’s Ambre Vanille body cream five out of five stars!

Laura Mercier’s Ambre Vanille can be found online at Sephora.com and at Laura Mercier counters.
