As we get older, we find ourselves in the constant throws of comparison. The hourglass of life is trickling by and as we mature we become attune to our surroundings more so than as a young child and young adult. If you are at all like me, you were born in the 80′s, reached the end of your twenties and are merely stepping into what others call, “The Greatest Decade” (that remains to be seen), your thirties. You may be asking yourself, how did I get here? You may be comparing your life to the lives of others. All your friends are married or engaged with children, (No? Oh, that’s just me). You may find that you are at a crossroads and like all great crossroads in life, you may be wondering what path to go down, what next adventure to forge? Well, I’m here to advise you, and aid in extinguishing your anguish and unsettled state-of-mind. What better time to fall in love with yourself, to finally allow yourself the time, opportunity and self-reflection that you may have neglected during your twenties.

Part of loving oneself comes from praising your highest qualities, remembering to provide yourself with daily nourishment, nutrients, and on occasion objects of desire. In other words, to treat yo self, as the popular phrase would suggest. I’m not saying, to go into massive amounts of debt because one article suggested you take care of yourself. I’m suggesting to allow yourself to purchase one item, one object that stands as an example, a symbol of the love you hold for yourself. To remind you on the days you feel your worst, alone, and in another perilous episode of self-pity (we’ve all been there). That it can hold that space in life’s hourglass to remind you even if the world around you is falling apart, you are breathing and you are loved. Self-love can sometimes be the greatest of all love, so why not dive into it?

One brand helping to honor all forms of love is a brand based out of San Diego, California. Anjolee is built upon the idea that love transcends time and money. Urging you to finally step outside the idea that jewelry can only be purchased for someone else and honor yourself. A nod to the female who’s living her life solo, she’s a #bosslady, best friend, daughter, sister, and maybe CEO. So maybe you aren’t running down the aisle to marry yourself, or buying a diamond engagement ring. You can still buy yourself something similar.

Anjolee offers a wide range of rings that are easily customizable. Ranging from engagement-style rings to diamond pendant necklaces and much more. I chose to honor myself with a Double-Row-Halo Diamond Engagement Ring. To wear on my right hand as my reminder. (Double-Row-Halo Ring pictured was made with Cubic Zirconia and Citrine center stone).

You may ask yourself why? The answer is, why not? You have one life, so give yourself something that will make you smile. Choose from beautiful diamond bracelets, fall head-over-heels for colored gemstones. Pair a bracelet with a set of matching earrings. Now is the time to fall in love with yourself, wear Anjolee.
The site is extremely user-friendly and with their hassle-free return policy you don’t have to worry about getting something resized or fixed.
