Harper & Jewels Brand Rep!

May 25, 2017

I am happy to announce my new journey as a brand rep with Harper & Jewels.   I stumbled upon Harper & Jewels through Instagram and instantly fell in love with their Pom Pom Collar Statement Necklace.   I was impressed with their fast delivery and free United States shipping.    I was certainly lucky to snag this accessory because it is currently SOLD OUT!!!    I wore this statement necklace in Punta Cana with my white AG Jeans and white GAP tank top.  Love, love, love!

As a brand rep, I will be sharing snaps of my personal Harper & Jewels picks on my social media outlets. If you are not already following me, please follow at @citygirlcece and @llbycitygirl on Facebook, Twitter & Instagram.  You, my loyal followers, will be the first to know of new arrivals, sales, my recommended gift ideas and more!  The best news is that you get 15% off your purchases using the code: CITYGIRL.   How great is that!  To kick of this new endeavor, I am sharing my top five Harper & Jewels accessory Must Have’s for the upcoming summer!

This weekend unofficially kicks off the summer for me.   Summer makes me think of light, comfortable clothing, lots of color and bold statement pieces to make your outfits pop.   These Camden Beaded Tassel Earrings are on my wish list.   The white, pink, and mint beads will pair perfectly with a messy bun, blue jeans and a cute summer top.

This summer is all about the Pom Poms and Tassels.    Caution – a little Pom Pom and Tassel will go a long way.  The multi-colored Pom Pom Clutch is a must have and perfect accessory to complement your summer dress, cute shorts or skinny jeans day or night.  The clutch has a detachable chain strap, a magnetic snap closure and is lined.

With the summer coming along, don’t forget your SPF & sun glasses – no one wants premature wrinkles. For a chic boho look, hit the beach boardwalk with your Straw Tassel Fedora.   These multi-colored tassels are definitely Instagram-worthy.

I love the bold blue Lars Threaded Bead Tassel Bracelet.   What’s even better?  It also comes in a hot pink and vivid green.  Stacking these with different colored bracelets is a definite option.

My last pick, but not least, is Harper & Jewels Pineapple Round Beach Towel.  If your bikini is cute, why shouldn’t your towel be as well??  Look super sexy laying on this round beach towel while you gaze at the waves and sip on a cool drink.  I don’t know about you, but this sounds like the perfect photo-op.   The towel is 59″ diameter and is 100% cotton.

Ladies, in addition to the lovely accessories, you can also find cute T-Shirts.  Gentlemen, we have something for you, too!   See the H&J Man collection which consists of cuff links, key chains and tie clips.  H&J has a great selection of personalized jewelry, but please keep in mind that these personalized accessories can take UP TO 3-4 weeks to arrive.

I am a huge fan of lychee martini’s. @red_thest I am a huge fan of lychee martini’s.  @red_thesteakhouse in Miami makes a great one.  It pairs beautifully with their signature Four Cheese 🧀 Macaroni & Cheese.  Our waiter suggested that we add lobster 🦞 and it’s was maginifique!
I may be biased - because I am a Texan, but @visit I may be biased - because I am a Texan, but @visitsouthpadreisland restaurants make the best fried red snapper.  Here’s an excellent one from @dirtyalspelicanstation .
I can’t decide what I like more, Cocktails 🍸 I can’t decide what I like more, Cocktails 🍸 or Cake 🍰? After years of driving by Maximillians Grill & Wine Bar on Chapel Hill Rd. in Cary, I finally went with my friend @ejdevita for a Taurus Celebration Dinner.  Everything was fantastic.  If you are a Martini-lover, try the Max Martini with blue cheese stuffed olives 🫒. My fellow Taurus introduced me to Martinis on the Rocks and I don’t plan to have a Martini shaken or stirred anymore.  Maximillians makes all of their gelatos and desserts in house.  If the Coconut Cake is on the menu - order it!  It’s been one month since I had a slice of this dessert and I am still dreaming about it.  The Pei Mussels are another must.  Focaccia accompanies the mussels to soak up the delicious seafood broth.  Other notable mentions are the Voodoo Of The Day and the Double Cut Pork Chop.  @maximilliansgrillandwine menu is farm to table so dishes may change.  If it’s not too hot out, grab a table on their patio.  I do recommend you make a reservation - to guarantee your spot.  Maximillians is located on 8314 Chapel Hill Rd. Cary, NC 27513.
Celebrating National Burger Day with @whataburger Celebrating National Burger Day with @whataburger Double Meat, Double Cheese on a toasted bun.  After all, did you really go to Texas, if you did not eat at Whataburger at least once.
Pure Vegan Cafe is a juice and vegan food restaura Pure Vegan Cafe is a juice and vegan food restaurant focused on using high quality, healthy ingredients to create premium juices, smoothies, and 100% vegan food. I visited their
8369 Creedmoor Rd. location in Raleigh after work last week and sampled their delicious plant-based menu items.  While I am not Vegan, I do follow a diet rich in vegetables and fruits.  Some of the food I sampled included the Banana Toast Crunch, PVC Tiki Burger, Chipotle Bowl and Novid Orange juice.  I could not stop eating the PVC Tiki Burger.  It is made of potatoes, peas, carrots and spices topped with lettuce, tomato, avocado, microgreens, chipotle mayo & honee mustard.  In addition to the flavors, I like that I could see the veggies in this burger.  It wasn’t a patty of mashed or compressed vegetables.  I also enjoyed the Chipotle Bowl Salad made of romaine, black beans, avocado, quinoa, pico cashew dressing and cilantro dressing.  Do not leave @purevegancafe with out trying an order of Sweet Potato Buffalo Ranch Fries!  Make sure you bring a friend or two to sample these fries because you may end up eating the whole basket like I did 😂. Special thanks to Pure Vegan Cafe for hosting me and @bitesofbullcity for coordinating my visit.
