Some of you who are regular readers of my blog may remember that I have talked about the beautiful Murano Glass necklaces from Los Angeles based Yummi Glass in the past. Some readers wrote in after that post to say they loved Yummi, but didn’t find the jewelry priced for Recessionistas. Well, good news! We have a Recessionista exclusive on Yummi’s beautiful read Poppy Necklace just in time for Mother’s Day. This is one flower you can give Mom that she can enjoy long after Mother’s Day has passed. I own one of these and I also bought one for my Mom at a very famous New York department store last year. The Poppy Necklaces dresses up any special top, sweater or dress. I especially like to wear mine with a black dress for an evening out, or in the winter with my red holiday sweater. The necklace is very striking and it’s a classic accessory that will instantly upgrade any outfit. Now for the best part. For a limited time, until May 10th, 2009, you can order the necklace from the Yummi Glass website for $125.00 USD when you enter the promotion code “Recessionista” at checkout. The necklace regularly retails for $200.00 USD from the Yummi website. As a special bonus, Yummi is also offering free shipping on the Poppy as well as any other regularly priced jewelry. Sucha deal 🙂 If you’re reading from overseas, you can still take advantage of the specially priced Poppy offer, but International shipping charges may apply. Check the Yummi Glass website or contact them from their website for details.

For those of you who don’t know about Yummi, these are exquisite, handcrafted glass pendants on either ribbon or small leather chains that are sold at high-end stores like Astley Clarke, Henri Bendel, Neiman Marcus and sometimes Fred Segal. The Yummi flower collection, of which the Poppy is part, was inspired by Georgia O’Keefe. This is wearable art. Each piece is handcrafted from Murano Glass. Yummi Glass is the creation of a local Los Angeleno, Allison Overbeke. The pieces are simply amazing. The jewelry is simple, elegant & timeless. And that’s why I invest in it. This is stuff I can wear forever. And one last Recessionista tip….sometimes Yummi can be found at Loehmann’s 🙂 Loehmann’s let us know when the new Yummi is coming in. We need it for summer.
