i declare!

I'm not a huge fan of jewelry. I'm definitely not into the big flashy pieces that seem to be all the rage these days. Give me a plain silver necklace, bracelet, ring and I'm good to go. Now pair this with running, and I found myself a piece I'll never take off!!

i declare gives you just that! i declare was started by Annette Allen as a way for her to represent her loves, inspirations, accomplishments, etc. Each charm is sterling silver and is hand made by Annette so you are guaranteed your piece is unique. There are 5 different charm sizes to choose from and a handful of different fonts. Once you pick your charm size and font, you can pick from different styles of chains and order yourself a bracelet or necklace which is unique to you! In addition to the stamped charm, you can add adorable 3D charms, spacers or birth stone crystals to accent your piece of jewelry. There are really a lot of different options and prices vary accordingly.

The necklace I was sent had two charms, one stamped "ultra", the other "running." It is so perfect and simple and I love it! I don't have a picture of mine right now but here is a close example.



I love the idea of simple jewelry. I love that it's personalized and good quality. I've been wearing mine almost every day and it looks great. I take a sterling silver cleaning cloth to it when it starts to look dull and it cleans it right up. I've gotten tons of compliments on it and definitely see myself ordering i declare charms in the future. I'm giving i declare 10 biscuits!!! woo hoo!
