Design your own tennis bracelet at Anjolee!

I'm not one to go for too much "bling", but a diamond bracelet can be a chic way to add some sparkle to your jewelry wardrobe! That said,  most diamond bracelets are pretty ice-encrusted, and heavy on the aforementioned bling -- and on the wallet. But it needn't be so, especially when you have the chance to design your own! Anjolee, a 30-year old San Diego-based jewelry company, allows you to do just that: visit their website, and create a tennis bracelet to your own specs, choosing a metal, carat weight, stone quality, and finally, length. Voila! You've got your custom creation. Tweak the specs until the price reaches your budget, and rest assured that your diamonds are authentic and certified. The bracelets are beautifully crafted, with a safety clasp to ensure that it stays sparkling on your wrist.  And now that Valentine's Day is approaching, Anjolee is a one-stop-shop for your significant other!


Readers please note, Shopalicious received a sample of the item mentioned in this post for review.
