Is it difficult to buy jewellery online?

Many people say that to me when I tell them about JAM Gallery.

However, it can't be that difficult as there are some very successful online jewellers out there. I think it is a matter of the level of confidence that the purchaser has in the site they are buying from.

Also, when you speak to people who regularly buy online, they have a different attitude to their purchasing. Savvy online shoppers do not think twice about buying 3 or 4 items from one store, then trying them on at home to decide which one (or two) they will keep. Yes, they have to go to the post office to return them but when you consider the convenience of being able to try them on at home with outfits you already have AND ask your friends/boyfriend if they like them, it is time well-spent.

It means that you have an original piece of jewellery that very few people have access to without having to treck over to a different part of town (or a different city) to pick it up.

Think about it and while you are doing that, go to www.jamgallery.co.uk to find some beautiful jewellery worthy of all this effort!

Giving up wine is bad for you.

It happens every January - my husband gives up drinking and insists that I join him. I gave up drinking while pregnant (3 times), I say. I don't need to give up drinking. But he still says 'having a glass of wine, are you?' when I have a glass of wine and makes me feel guilty.

I wouldn't mind giving up drinking if it made me feel good but actually I feel dreadful. Since 1st January, I have had a cold, a cough, a migraine and almost daily sense of missing out that comes around at 6pm. Nothing that a good glass of wine couldn't cure.

Don't misunderstand me, I don't drink a lot - it's just a little treat that I award myself a couple of times a week and at the weekends. A glass of something delicious at the end of the day. Like Prosecco... Sauvignon Blanc... or Beaujolais Villages.

I think I have just given up giving up drinking!

You can count on jewellery...

So Christmas has come and gone and all we have to show for it is an expanded waistline. I ask myself every January - Why do I let myself go so much and allow excess to become the norm instead of the exception?

Oh well, the sales are on and even though none of my trousers fit anymore, there is always jewellery. It doesn't matter how big your bum is, nice jewellery still looks nice! And the same goes for shoes and handbags.

I always think that this is the main reason why women are so weak when it comes to these things. No matter what kind of a day you are having, a beautiful piece of jewellery will always look appealing and will make you feel good about yourself.

Jewellery is linked to self-esteem and therefore is compulsory. Enjoy some with our blessing at the jamgallery.co.uk 20% off sale.
