The first prize in our 2016 #12DaysofSheSpeaks giveaways will make you sparkle.
Although it is valued between $1,030 and $1,200, depending which gemstone you select, this special piece of jewelry should not just live in the jewelry box, only to be brought out for the rare wedding.
According to Jewelry Trends, this year, luxury pendants should not be saved for special occasions. She says, "There is no need to live according to the rule 'This is too beautiful and expensive to put it on today'. Our life is an opportunity – an opportunity to be trendy here and now."
The lines are blurring between the formal and the casual, so make sure you pick something you love and show it off - all day long!
The Timeless Fine Jewelry My Story Collection is a perfect example of how home and work can easily mix. It was started by Timeless Fine Jewelry co-owner Jackie Cohen. She wanted something she could wear every day to honor her adopted daughter, Julia. So she designed a ring that would always remind her of how lucky she is to be a mom. That's when she realized that everyone has their own story to tell, and the My Story Collection was born. Read more about Jackie and Julia here.

My mom for all she's done for us
I would love to honor my mom.
Sooo beautiful, my mom would love this
Love to gift it to my mother
My mother is an amazing and strong woman who had worked so hard for her whole life. She has devoted herself to her family, even now as she's struggles with arthritis and the start of memory issues.
My mom because she is always there when I need her and has made so many sacrifices for me and my family.
My mom who has been an amazing support during my first pregnancy.
My fiance! It's going to sound cliche, but he simply taught me to love and trust people again after so many years of still being hurt after a past betrayal. I'd give him the moon if I could, he's so precious to me.
I would love a piece of jewelry for my mom, and a matching piece for myself. Both to honor my mom, and to symbolize our bond.
I would love to win the ruby long diamond bar pendent for my mother. She has sacrificed everything for her children and even with all of her children being adults she still does whatever she can to help out. She is now an amazing grandmother and the most amazing person in my life. I pick the ruby so it has a touch of my dad in to symbolize her lifelong partner. The connection and determination the two of them have is incredible. I would give the world to my mother if I could.
My mom because she's the strongest person I know.
How wonderful The 12 Days of Christmas gifts. I would love to win this for my mother she goes several times a year does Central America missionary trips right now she's in Costa Rica helping the people that were affected by Hurricane Otto. she is selfless kind generous and she's my hero
I would honor my mother, my best friend. As a retired Postal Carrier, she has endured back surgery and a total knee replacement the last 2 years. She will be getting her second knee done after the holidays and I would love to Brighten her day with a piece of jewelry from Timeless Fine Jewelry My Story Collection.
I would like to honor my Mom for all she does for us.
My STORY is important to me. Through faith and God I've overcame many of life's challenging obstacles.
