Trend Setter

Let me introduce you to my friend, Romi.
Romi is one of those girls who just has an inherent sense of style. She’ll effortlessly throw on an outfit that is understated, but so impossibly chic that it would take us mere mortals hours to attain the same effect.

In fact, the first time I ever spent any real time with Romi was at Amy’s Atlanta bachelorette weekend back in 2006. I am here to tell you that after dinner on the first night, 3 of us all ordered the watch off her wrist by noon the next day and I was already scheming on how to copy the rest of her ensem. True story.

The girl’s just got a gift.

So you can imagine how excited I was when I heard she decided to channel all that fabulousness into her very own line of jewelry!
Predictably, it. is. GORGEOUS.

When I asked her what inspired her to start her line she said, “I took a jewelry making class in high school and another one after college and just fell in love with all the aspects that go into creating each piece… from designing to choosing the colors to making the piece myself. I love fashion and keeping up with the trends. Mostly I wanted to make cute jewelry that is affordable!”

Here are a few of Romi’s favorites:

Positive Energy

Love Letter (features hand-cut initial and heart detail)

Crazy in Love (the center heart charm features a single 1 pt. diamond accent)

Romi hearts Josh!

Flutter (24K gold plated filigree butterfly)

Instant Shimmer (stretch to fit most wrists)

Lola James Jewelry (lovingly named after Romi and husband Josh’s sweet pup) is available at a handful of boutiques in Miami but never fear: we Atlantans are able to purchase online at the recently launched www.lolajamesjewelry.com.

Now to decide which pieces…
