This post featured a slew of JewelMint sneak peeks styled by Cher Coulter, but what ever happened to the Jasper Plume Feather Necklace that was featured in this shoot?
At this time, it's release date is still unknown according to JM CS (JewelMint Customer Service). It's been such a long time since it was initially featured in this online editorial shoot which makes me wonder if it will ever be released? Guess it's one of those pieces, such as the Covent Garden Bracelet, that will have to remain a mystery for now...
How many times can you shown sneak peeks before they are no longer considered sneak peeks? :) It's only mid-march and we've seen quite a bit of April's new upcoming collection.
I'm a little bit on the fence here - while I love seeing (a few) sneak peeks of new items from JewelMint, another part of me is thinking that we've seen too much, too soon. The clutches have yet to be released, but I feel like they've been around for a long time now, and the pieces featured below were shared with us by Cher Coulter last week. Additionally, a few pieces we've been waiting for what seems like months now still have yet to be released (i.e. Covent Garden Bracelet, "Horse" Bracelet, Lioness Bracelet, Envelope Clutches, and so on)...
Anyone else feeling antsy? To tell you the truth, I've even gone as far as searching for pieces that resemble these future pieces, and I have found a few already. I'll share my finds with you in a few upcoming posts!
Here's another look at JewelMint's April 2012 Collection from SidewalkHustle.com...
Lately, Kate has been spotted non-stop with her new envelope clutches that are set to be released next month (April 2012). She's been seen here, here, and here with the gold envelope clutch. Meanwhile, Cher Coulter recently shared two photos of the silver clutch with a beaded strap over on Tumblr as seen as seen in this post here and seen in this photo below...
While I'm loving the concept of the two envelope clutches and the addition of a beaded strap, I can't stop wondering about this third mystery clutch in another photo also released last week by Cher Coulter...
This clutch reminds me so much of the Sierra Bracelet! I'm really hoping this clutch will be available in April as well! I'll be looking forward to getting my hands on both this one and the silver clutch as soon as they're both for sale.
Actually, I have a super cute and fun idea in mind for the silver clutch that I'll have to try out as soon as I get my hands on one! I'll then share with you guys as soon as I can. :)
Will you be purchasing JewelMint's new handbags when they debut next month? If so, which ones?

They say a picture is worth a thousand words right? Well, how about a total of 6 pictures of JewelMint sneak peeks Cher Coulter released last night over on Tumblr? While the captions only read "JewelMint (Taken with Instagram)", these photos include some major eye candy for what we can expect to see from future collections!
I seriously don't even know where to begin with all the pieces, handbags, belts, etc. shown in these photos! I'll just let it all sink in, and I'll try my best to pick apart the pieces to see if I can match up any names! :) You'll also notice that some pieces are from past collections as well!
What are your thoughts on all of these new items?! Which are you most excited about???

So there are a lot of future sneak peek photos floating around this blog and a ton of buzz surrounding all the upcoming pieces. So I thought I would recap all of the pieces we've been eyeing into one post! All the pieces above are supposedly future pieces that may or may not be included in March's collection, and may even be future mid-month releases.

I stumbled across this photo taken by Cher Coulter a couple weeks ago and I completely forgot to share them with all of you! Silly me.
This set of JewelMint pins have yet to be released, and will be the second set of pins following the Holiday Hayworth Pin Collection that included the Forever/Very Audrey Pin, Wonderland Pin, and the Faye Dynasty Pin. This new collection seems to include the Unlock My Heart Pin, East Side Beat Pin, and a floral cluster pin that I'm hoping is an extension of another upcoming floral piece!
The release date for these pins is unknown, but I'm sure we can expect them soon!

Two of the best things in the entire world: jewelry + shoes! I got some Mint-Spiration from Cher Coulter's jewelry and shoe creation from this StyleCaster photoshoot with Kate Bosworth as seen here!
As you can see, I've refashioned JewelMint's Petite Coeur Necklace by adding it as a cute little charm on the buckle of my brand new ShoeMint Edith's in Blush Suede!
Watching JewelMint's Saber Tooth Ring video, I noticed two very gorgeous rings on Cher Coulter! To the right of the photo above you will notice two gold and emerald rings on Cher's pointer finger.
Thing is, Cher tends to wear JewelMint pieces in all of these videos so I'm assuming these rings will be a future set!!!
I would purchase these in a heartbeat if they were available for the upcoming holiday season! I mean, who doesn't love anything emerald and gold?

P.S. For those curious about the gold/yellow/ruby ring on Cher's middle finger, it's one of the rings from the Desire Rings Set.
Hi everyone! I couldn't figure out why I wasn't receiving some of my JewelMint emails over the past couple days and it turns out that my Newsletter Email Notification setting was switched to "No" in my JewelMint account. I hadn't been receiving some of my messages so this one is a little late, but here it is!! By the way, you may want to check your setting to make sure it's set at "Yes" in order to make sure you are receiving all the emails and offers JewelMint has to offer!
The above email was sent out on October 1st. It's a thank you letter to JewelMint Members from Kate and Cher.
For those of you who may not be able to view the photo above (Mobile readers, JewelsAndMints iPhone App viewers, etc.) the letter reads the following...
Dear JewelMinter,
We can't believe it's already been a year! October marks JewelMint's 1st Anniversary and we couldn't have done it without our incredible members. Growing with our loyal community is what made this past year so special and memorable for us, and we're just getting started!
In the coming year, keep on the lookout for more seasonal style tips and trends, the arrival of new amazing guest curators, fun contests and, of course, a ton of epic new JewelMint pieces in your showroom every month. You, our fans inspire everything we do.
To celebrate this special anniversary with us, keep a look out all month long for special promotions, give giveaways and new product announcements. Show us our love with "Likes" and don't forget to invite your friends to join the JewelMint celebration, too!
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts - JewelMint would not be what is is without you!
Kate + Cher
This letter is especially lovely because it points out one specific phrase that really stood out to me..."Growing with our loyal community is what made this past year so special and memorable for us."
For those of you who have been with JewelMint for the past year, we've been witness to it's amazing growth, some growing pains, and more importantly, how it's been dealt with. I know that if there is ever an issue, JewelMint has always been more than willing to correct it. They want their members to be satisfied, and it is true...they are growing extremely fast and hopefully their customer service team (those employees who take calls and operate the live chat) will only continue to grow larger as well, but this sort of thing takes time. It will be very exciting to see what the next year brings, and to watch JewelMint continue to grow!
Moreover, I want to thank JewelMint for all the support they've given their fans including the JewelsAndMints Blog. While this blog's one-year anniversary will not be until March 31st, 2012, it's been great how supportive JewelMint has been been - just another reason why I couldn't be happier to continue to host this blog dedicated specifically to the JewelMint brand.

Here's a breakdown of JewelMint's latest Trend Report...
The Trend:
American Moment: We "love the fresh look of a necklace worn over a shirt buttoned to the color, spotted recently on Kate." This look was seen on Kate Bosworth back on August 3rd in Los Angeles for a Coldplay concert (seen in this post). This look was later revealed as one of the looks for JewelMint's StyleCaster photo shoot (as seen here)! Cher Coulter styled Kate in a button-up shirt from Missoni's Winter 2011 Collection with JewelMint's Lost City Necklace strategically placed peaking out from under the collar!

JewelMint's latest email offers a style tip from here plus $5 off any two pieces with the Promo Code: FALL5
Here's a recap of Cher Coulter's fall style tip! "This fall season, think Printed Leopard Shoes and richly colored Outer Coats. Just in time for cooler weather, Leopard Footwear adds a hint of bold yet sophisticated fun to a great pant or skirt, while your favorite floral dress pairs well underneath deep mustard or emerald tones of a heavy outer jacket. Combine these looks with the Midnight Soiree Ring, or the Faye Dynasty Earrings, and your look is unmistakably 1940s glamour."
Another look I'm loving right now is pairing two similar bold colors within the same color family. For example, emerald and teal or fuchsia with plum! Pretty much any piece from JewelMint's September line would easily compliment any bold outfit concept!

So I'm totally laughing as I'm typing this because JewelMint had us fooled! Do you remember all the buzz about a recent set of earrings seen on Kate at a recent red-carpet event in France? It was at the Deauville Film Festival to be exact. There was a beautiful white dress from Chanel involved, pearls and crystals galore, and a particular pair of earrings that had us talking! See the post here.
JewelMint recently posted two blog on JewelMint's Style Diary (both here and here) featuring Kate wearing a refashioned version of the Versailles Earrings. Take a closer look at the photo below. Look familiar???
In one of JewelMint's posts, they mention the following:
"Kate and Cher love reinventing their favorite JewelMint pieces in new ways. They get creative by taking past favorites and “refashioning” them into different types of jewelry; recently Cher took the chandelier Versailles Earrings and turned them into studs for Kate to wear at the Deauville Film Festival in France. Read more to find out how you can take part in the “refashioning” phenomenon at JewelMint."
I'm laughing because on the day these photos were originally released (September 2nd), I spent a good amount of time trying to assess Kate's earrings. I just never put the two together!
My original interpretation was this: "And here we have a close-up of Kate's cluster earrings. It's hard to
tell, but these earrings look as if there are two "winged" metal loops
that adorn a centerpiece of faceted crystals. What do you think?"
I can only imagine if anyone at JewelMint reads this blog, they were probably giggling if they happened to catch that post.
Well, never again JewelMint! We're on to this whole "refashioning" thing you have going on (which we love by the way)! Oh, and while you're at it, can you refashion us some Gatsby earrings? Thanks! ;)
From now on, we're looking at sneak peeks with a different set of eyes as it seems anything has a possibility of being refashioned.
So far we've seen the Mystic Secrets Necklace turned into a pin in Kate's recent C Magazine shoot (in this post here) and the Paramour Bracelet take on a whole new look as September's Paramour Necklace. There's also currently a contest going on right now over on JewelMint's Facebook page (here) for us to vote on which piece we would like to see remade. And now, this crystal looped earrings mystery being solved as simply being the Versailles all along!
Tricky, tricky, tricky.
xoxo, Lily
P.S. How amazing would that be if JewelMint actually released future sets focused solely on their new "Refashioned" thing they have going on? For example, I came up with a few ideas of my own that I think we would all love! Just know these aren't actual future sets, just ideas. Here it goes...
Future JewelMint Set Possibilities?
Set 1 - The Secret Set: Mystic Secrets Necklace & Refashioned Mystic Secrets Pin
Set 2 - The Very Versailles Duo: Versailles Earrings & Refashioned Versailles Studs (glam/casual) Set 3 - The Perfectly Paramour Trio: Paramour Bracelet, Paramour Necklace, Paramour Rings Set 4 - The Gatsby Duo: Gatsby Bracelet and Gastby Earrings (or Necklace)
I would personally purchase all four in a heartbeat! I think many of us would - Would you?
