Our chocolate CZ jewelry collection is delightfully delicious…and calorie-free! The cool sophistication of chocolate CZs makes them wonderfully wearable for any occasion, and especially ideal for a dash of affordable elegance. Check out some of our cocoa-colored favorites…

A rich gold tone brings out the beauty of the brown in this chocolate and aqua CZ Charm Bracelet. The always beautiful bezel settings shine with faceted stones and varying sizes, making for a bracelet that is fun and flirty, but definitely grown-up. The rich brown is kept cool and calm with the help of the vibrant blue CZs, making for a bracelet that is more like a spa visit than an accessory!

Mmmm…tiny squares of chocolate! These delectable Dangle Earrings are polished perfection with a princess shape fit for a queen. A wonderful complement to the bracelet highlighted above, these bring an everyday essential to chocolate-lovers for less than $15!

We have always felt that champagne is the perfect pairing for chocolate, and this bold Cocktail Ring more than proves we’re right. Ideal as a middle finger ring, the spectacular smokey topaz center stone is nestled between layers of clear and champagne-colored CZs. This ring looks good enough to eat!

Let FantasyJewelryBox.com be your bakeshop of designer-inspired dessert, whatever your favorite flavor!

What’s even better than our onyx necklace? Making it part of a set! FantasyJewelryBox.com would never leave you hanging on a marvelous match, and our square Onyx Cocktail Ring is just that.

Bring The Bold Black Bling!

Hello, Gorgeous! This Black and White CZ Ring “Paves” the way to dazzling delight! A 1 inch width and low profile makes this luxuriously large but super wearable, while high-quality CZs and a sterling silver setting ensure it will be a favorite for many years to come. Dress it up or down, at home or on the town – this is star-worthy style at a price for smaller pockets.

Sssso Sssstunning! Animal jewelry is making a ferocious comeback, and our Crystal Snake Pin proves just how pretty it can be. For less than $15, this interesting and unique pin can be yours to wear now and for Fall. Black and clear Austrian crystals ’snake’ down the length of the piece, bringing sleek style. Pin it to a summer purse now, and a velvet blazer in the Fall. Or use the pin as a fun and fashionable way to keep gapping shirts closed or to secure a sarong at the beach. Have fun with it – that’s what jewelry is for!

Is there any stone as ravishing and radiant as the ruby? Bringing both the bold appeal of red, and a price tag that reflects it’s standing among the most precious of precious gems, the ruby is rich, rich, rich in every sense of the word. However, that powerful price tag leaves real rubies out of reach for many of us. Ruby cubic zirconia jewelry takes the same amazing appeal and makes it available to the masses. And FantasyJewelryBox.com just happens to carry a few pieces of Ruby CZ Jewelry to satisfy July babies and other ruby-lovers alike!

Among the most intricate, interesting pieces we offer, these Ruby CZ Rings are wonderful works of art. They truly have it all, from a sterling silver setting, to a near perfect review rating from pleased-as-punch owners. A 3 carat total weight is distributed across brilliant cut stones of round and princess shapes, set at various angles for the most visual interest and awesome accenting of the beautiful center stone.

As cute, cool and classic as our traditional Birthstone Earrings are, the lovely lady on your July birthdays list may be looking for something a little different. If studs aren’t her thing, check out these gorgeous Ruby CZ Drop Earrings, with fantastic faceting to capture the most light, day or night!

Happy Birthday July Lovelies!!!

Ah, that iconic shape of love! There’s nothing as special as opening that little box to discover a piece of heart-shaped jewelry. No matter your age, from little lady to spectacular senior, chances are you have at least one heart-shaped gem in your jewelry box that means so much. Why not give the gift of Heart Jewelry to someone close to you? Maybe even yourself? After all, as the quote goes, “You must love yourself before you love another.”

Open Your Heart to a Modern Approach

Cool, comfortable and a soon-to-be classic, mesh rings have been making waves and making fans for awhile now. And as so many jewelry trends have come and gone, they have done nothing but climb the ranks toward that most revered of accessory thrones: a jewelry staple! Those pieces you rely on to look great with everything and make you feel good in the process. You can’t improve on that, right? Wrong – of course you can! You can take that design and add a little love to make a Heart Mesh Ring. And that’s exactly what we did.

One…Two…Three Hearts!

A truly shining example of how lovely heart jewelry can be are our triple Heart Necklaces. Generously decorated with sparkling clear CZ stones, a larger heart provides a cozy home for two smaller hearts. All are set at slightly different angles, creating a gorgeous and unique take on the traditional heart jewelry style. And isn’t that just like love itself? Hearts coming together from different angles to create something more beautiful than any could achieve on their own? I think so.

Lovely lady in your life you want to surprise with some beautiful jewelry, but are unsure where to begin? FantasyJewelryBox.com is here to help! We understand that buying jewelry can be a little overwhelming at times, especially if that fabulous female is a friend and not a girlfriend or wife. As a woman with a great deal of guy friends, I’ve stood in your shoes many times, asking myself, “Does this gift send the wrong signal?” We’re trained to worry about such things, and while there are some gifts that make more sense for couples, don’t let that worry stop you from getting your friend something you know she’ll love receiving from you. I have a few guy friends who regularly gift me jewelry because know I love it, and that I won’t think it means ‘I’m secretly in love with you’! In fact, it lets me know that they pay attention to my likes and dislikes. It shows that they’re beyond worrying about silly things and have placed more importance on gifting me something I’ll adore. It shows me they’re true friends.

If you aren’t sure exactly what your friend’s jewelry tastes are, consider something that has symbolic meaning in your friendship. Do you take a weekend beach getaway together every summer? Our cubic zirconia Starfish Necklace can help show her how much those trips mean to you. Did you spend countless summer nights in high school enjoying ice cream at the local ice cream parlour or road-side stand? Our Ice Cream Cone Necklace is an adorable and affordable way to honor those fun memories. Do you share a passion for charitable work and organizations? Our Save The Elephants sterling silver bangle bracelet is both beautiful and beneficial, with each purchase helping to support The Elephant Sanctuary. There are lots of ways to give the gift of jewelry to a friend. Just think beyond the hearts and diamond solitaires. Think beyond the worry. Think about what makes your friendship so awesome. And don’t think twice about what people who aren’t part of it will think about your gift. After all…they’re not your friends.

We’ve been known to stroll around the internet from time to time, often seeking out the funky fresh styles being dreamed up by fashionistas across the world. Which is exactly how we met Mara, the colorful, creative lady behind kissmyfasshion! With an impeccable eye, and a natural ability to make any piece of clothing and accessory completely her own, Mara provides her readers with a regular dose of what she’s wearing, all interestingly photographed for our enjoyment! And she doesn’t play the ’secret game’ so many stylish bloggers play, claiming that absolutely everything was a vintage find. Mara lets us in on her hot spots, be they Target or Forever 21. Sure, some of her inspirational awesomeness comes from a second-hand shop or her sister’s closet, but we aren’t reading her blog to copy her exact style anyway – we’re keeping posted to keep our own ideas fresh and be reminded there’s no reason to settle for khakis and a black shirt when there’s a fabulous female inside just aching to wear her clothes like art.

Just as we hope you’ll always make our jewelry your own thing, pairing unexpected pieces or mixing a hoop earring with a stud, we also hope you’ll give Mara a glance at kissmyfasshion.blogspot.com. In addition to stopping in to see what spectacular outfit she’s created, and photographed beautifully, Mara also provides a peek at her fashion wishes and wants, many of which you may not have already seen in 100 magazines. We predict a fiercely fashionable future for this young woman, and we’re looking forward to seeing what’s next.
