CELEB PHOTOS Part 2!! (A well kept secret)

All men, women, and children who browse the Victoria's Secret Catalog on a daily basis know how consistently hot Alessandra Ambrosio is. So it's no secret how amazing she looked in this dazzling dress. It was accented perfectly with this necklace/pendant combination.

CELEB PHOTOS! Part 1

Hello All!

 We here at SkyeSterling thought George Clooney's new moustache in Ocean's 13 was a smash hit! We loved it!

We did not, however, enjoy his necklace/pendant combination. We thought it was hideous! We thought he would have looked much better in our own Sterling Silver Large Open Heart Cable Chain Necklace 18in

-PHEW- They're finally in stock and uploaded.

For all of you who found the perfect ring, just to find out we did not carry your size, now we do!

We've been waiting for a long time to get as many sizes as possible of all of the rings we carry and they just came in.

Personally, I can't wait to scoop up the gorgeous Sterling Silver Abablone Celtic Ring that I've been eyeing. It's finally here in size 8. YEA!

So Ugly, She SCREAMED - Why Skye was Redesigned

It bored me. It was not fun. It confused me.

In my extensive site testing of two people who walked by my desk, they confirmed my beliefs.

I know our best products and pictures were not showcased. I knew navigation need some work.

Coming from a million years of experience in jewelry photography, our site was fugly. That was my professional diagnosis.

Taking the lead from our most popular Google ads, I decided when people clicked on Top 10 Hot New Toe Rings, they should end up there. People could end up where they thought they were going AND our top 10 products would be showcased for every category. Groundbreaking concepts for sure. What can I say, as a newbie to ecommerce, sometimes it takes a while for common sense to sink in.

So, although always a work in progress, I am now excited and amused by our fun, visually stimulating, easier to navigate, SkyeSterling.com.

Personally, I smile as I click around the site now, and go there on a regular basis for no reason at all. Before...not so much.

By all means, be my third site tester and let me know what you think.

SkyeSterling’s First Bridal Jewelry Sample Sale a Success!

In case you missed it, SkyeSterling Carle Place was the site of our first Bridal Jewelry Sample Sale. We received hundreds of new designs in sterling silver, cubic zirconia, and freshwater pearl just for the event.

"We've never really focused on bridal jewelry, but we've had a lot special orders from brides both through our two Long Island stores and online recently, so we started to pay attention. We realized that we really do carry a lot of jewelry for brides, bridesmaids and even flower girls. I even found a thread on LIWeddings.com where brides to be were talking about us. I don't know why we didn't think of it sooner." – Nina, SkyeSterling

Although we already have a few thousand styles at the store, we were able to secure even more styles that we felt were very weddingish, but only for a few days. Many designs had very limited runs. They were samples created by our parent company and what did not sell, they needed back. The customers loved the merchandise and the prices were amazing.

We're looking into the possibility of having more sample sales at the stores and will probably be creating a bridal jewelry department. In the meantime, you can always check out SkyeSterling.com's Bridal Jewelry Boutique.

2 Noahs 1 Tornado and a Birth Online

Yelling Kicking Screaming

Push Breathe Push

Drama, Near Violence

SkyeSterling.com was finally born.

Nine months after the concept was conceived and a deal was made to sell on Amazon.

During that time SkyeSterling saw overnight success on Amazon. It just took 35 years to get here.

We-as in the few of us molding the new creation - dealt with a bizarre tornado and two Noah's arcish floods. I even had a baby somewhere during that time.

Its now nine months since I returned from maternity leave and my son is almost as demanding as the website.

Our quest to make every woman Divalicious has just begun.
