Also in case anyone is wondering..the Tinsley necklace doesn't have ridges or etching like it at least appears to me...

it look more like a washer (just a plain metal circle). It's still pretty, but I wanted it to have more design!

yeah i know..that link is really long, but because it's sold out on their store if you go to the site directly it blanks out the picture after half a second.
Oh wow, if I got that one I'd be so disappointed. I liked it because of the ridges in the picture on LBB.

o0o0o0 I know! So many "do wants" from Gorjana. LBB portrays them to be a lot bigger than they actually are. The actual site shows them to be so dainty - which I love because I'm so tiny. I like wearing big statement pieces but I feel like sometimes the piece is actually wearing me because of my frame, Gorjana is my new love. I have 4 pieces coming from her line right now but I'm trying and trying to get my hands on that Audrey bracelet. With no luck :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I actually think it's ridges on one side and smooth on the other. Which is kinda cool because then you can wear it both ways :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Stephanie what kind of offers are you getting for your crescent moon necklace?
Not very good ones, i'd say no more than $48-$50 offers. I got a few betsey necklaces and nicer jewelry items but the 2 items trades are terrible (surprise surprise haha)

Those are good offers I guess, but I really want this necklace so someone would have to offer me a LOT considering I traded down a $80 necklace for it haha

Also, on their company site it actually retails for $61

 
Leilani, did you get the shameless necklace yet? If so can I see a picture? :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I'm debating getting the sweet/sassy one haha. I kind of like it haha.

 
Also a question for everyone out there more cultured than I am haha

The Crescent necklace is called "Aman" on Robyn Rhodes' website.  What does this mean? I thought it was something religious but I looked it up and all I can find is the land in LOTR (which would be awesome hahaha but I doubt that's what it means). Any ideas?

I think Aman is the capital of Jordan? Which makes sense since the crescent is a religious symbol in Islam the way that the cross is in Christianity.

 
Yay I got my gorjana necklace back! I was regretting getting rid of it once I really thought about how it would look on me. I calculated it and the original $45 earrings I had (traded $46 for them) that I went down to the scarf for and then from that + my eagle necklace down to the clutch/purse...i ended up still trading up $17 in the end for the necklace :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

by the way Chelsey your offer is really tempting!! I like that betsey necklace but it seems a little long...hmmm.

Someone is offering me a ben amun beaded necklace with the scrub...it's $83 but not really worth it to me

ohhh i wonder why I couldn't find that on google. I did find somewhere else that it means "peace" and "God is with us"

I love learning about different religions even though i'm Buddhist, I think they're all really interesting so I love this necklace even more now!  Plus it's 14k gold...so what's not to love haha

I saw that trade. I think that Gorjana is meant to be yours, the way it keeps coming back to you, and cheap!

I think they're actually pretty cute haha but I have no items under $22 or I would trade for them! They look kind of bad on the picture but in the videos i've seen they are a really bright torquoise which I love.

Everyone once in awhile someone really wants them...someone gave me the glitter floral bangle for the necklace! But it is pretty rare that that happens...

I believe that is what she might actually be referring to as the moon has a lot of significance and symbolism  in regards to the Aman. If you want to get really tricky with it one point of the moon might represent Valinor while the other representing Eldamar. Many people think that both of those places which are contained in the Western continent comprise Aman while others think Aman really only has Valinor in it. 

Idk, but now knowing that the name of the necklace is Aman on the site I'm tempted to close this bag and start over. /Tolkien nerd.

 
It's because I didn't know the spelling, it's Amman Jordan. Even so, I do think that Robin Rhodes is referring to Islam because of the crescent, and it probably does mean peace or something similar.

Ahahahah yes that too. Stick with what Donna said, when you said Tolkien I lost all control of my brain and logical thought.

That's funny, because the only reason I don't want it for myself is because I thought it seemed too short LOL. I have huge boobs so longer necklaces look better on me.
