{please visit The Jewelry Bar here}

I like my jewelry the same way I like my drinks: clean and simple. No umbrellas, no added colors, and for the love of Pete no cockamamie (yes, that’s how you spell it) names like Sex on the Beach.  Fact: odds of people who drink Sex on the Beach actually having sex on the beach is 19,415:1.

So when I sidled up to The Jewlery Bar I felt right at home.  Yoon S. Park takes a less is more approach to her designs, drawing inspiration from her Asian heritage and the austere beauty of nature to create a line that lets the beauty of the wearer shine through.  Take, for example, the stunning Bare Leaf Lariat necklace.  A delicately formed gold leaf gently brushes your neck while a AAA quality green amethyst briolette dangles just low enough to prove alluring.  The delicate and refined Small Leaf necklace is perfect to layer or wear alone everyday.  Fact: odds someone will offer you a tasteful adult beverage if you pair one or both of these lovelies with a simple black dress is 1:19,415.  Which, if you ask me, is much nicer than finding yourself in a compromising position on what you thought was an empty beach.

The Jewelry Bar is giving away both necklaces to one lucky winner to layer or wear alone. She is also offering a 10% discount on everything in her shop for those who use the coupon code Sunshine. Thanks, Yoon! In order to win, please answer the following question by Wednesday, July 22, 2009.
