First things First.
I’ve got a winner for the Special Mom Contest!
And let me say, reading through all of the entries was nothing short of heart-warming.
So many of you mamas out there are so incredibly deserving, so THANK YOU for sharing your own story or the story of a friend!
I wish I could give everybody a Kendra Scott necklace AND A HUG.
I also wish I could have personally replied to everybody that entered.
I also wish I could have personally replied to everybody that entered.
But please know, I said lots of prayers (and I’m guessing many others did too) for so many of you!
Your stories are SO powerful, and your kids are SO blessed by your love!
So….without further ado….the winner is…..
Sarah Jasinski nominated Kerry with this blog post comment:
My name is Sarah Jasinski and I’d like to nominate Kerry Roy. Mrs. Roy
was my high school biology teacher at McKinney Boyd and she has a sweet
daughter with down syndrome. She is one of the most caring, loving
people you will ever meet and as a teacher and mother she truly deserves
to feel special this Mother’s Day.
Thank you Sarah for nominating Kerry!
(I don’t know Mrs. Roy, but she works in McKinney ISD, the same district I work for! And she works at the high school that is less than 1 mile from our house! CRAZY!)

And the rest of you who want to take advantage of the code….
FIRST AND FOREMOST, make sure one of THESE necklaces is in your cart.
Seriously. Promise me right now you will get AT LEAST 1 of these necklaces.
Right now I have the magenta, but I’m seriously considering a second color. Maybe even the white because I keep thinking how great it will look with every brightly colored tee and tank under the sun!

Because OH MY WORD my obsession is out of control.
Like prescribe some sort of medication for me out of control.
Don’t believe me? I wore it 4 times last week. No lie.
There are 2 times I wore it last week where I didn’t take pictures (because a girl has to have some pride), but I did take pics two of the other times I wore it.

If you follow me on instragram (you can do so HERE), you saw that my little fam decided to go to the Perot museum a couple of Sundays ago, which is one of the times I wore the necklace.
Here we are soaking up all sorts of fun at the museum. Sidenote: I wish I could have bottled up all of the “OH MY GOODNESS”es out of my little guy’s mouth and all of the wide eyed can’t believe what I’m seeing looks.
Let’s just say, he was a fan.
I posted my outfit on instagram before we headed out, and it got a lot of attention.
I get it. Because the top is fab.

I saw it when walking by J Crew at Northpark.
It was on a mannequin, and I immediately knew I had to have it.

For size reference, I was wearing a 4.
I’ve already worn it with white jeans also, and it was super cute with those too!

And I went ahead and made a “Get the Look For Yourself” collage.
Do you girls like these? I think they give you a good idea of what the pieces could look like on their own as well as together. Let me know in the comments if you would like me to keep doing them!

And then on Thursday I went to Carter’s end of year program for Pre-K.
Here I am with my favorite little man.
And I wore some more Kendra Scott jewelry. Because I’m telling you, I just can’t quit her. 🙂
I wore THIS necklace (in magenta) and THESE earrings (in neon yellow).

So…..because of the code….I thought I would just review the outfit and jewelry pictures from last week. This code really is too good to pass up.
Neon Yellow Morgan studs c/o Kendra Scott HERE.
Let’s talk about these studs for just a sec. They are the perfect summer earring to wear to the beach, the pool, or just all day long with your t-shirt and shorts.
They are “just a stud”, but they are BOLD and BIG and actually make a statement.
I LOVE THEM.
I’m getting one more color for sure.
Elisa Pendant c/o Kendra Scott HERE.
I had never seen some of the above pieces, and I absolutely loved all of them!
Let’s take a closer look below.

White Alexandra Earrings c/o Kendra Scott HERE.
I loved how the white earrings show up with my dark hair.

Click HERE to have a little fun of your own in the Color Bar.
I designed the ring on the left, and then it arrived at my door (on the right!)

And just in case you missed my post a couple of Fridays ago, here’s just one more outfit with the Rayne necklace (c/o Kendra Scott, click HERE).
I initially thought the necklace was Hot Pink, but it’s definitely the magenta.
Fatima Necklace HERE (perfect for layering!)
G Ring Earrings HERE
And listen.
I wasn’t kidding when I said I took a bajillion pictures.
Here’s some more pictures I took for you.
I would take one outfit, and then I would switch the jewelry out for
different pieces to prove that you really can’t go wrong with any piece
or any color!

(On the very left, I don’t have on any jewelry.)
Same thing here.
No jewelry on left….lots of different jewelry in other pics.
See? Can’t go wrong.
And even more proof that everything looks good with everything!
No jewelry on the left – BORING.
Rayne Pendant c/ o Kendra Scott HERE and Gold Medallion Earrings c/o Kendra Scott HERE on right. Doesn’t the jewelry make the entire outfit like 100% CUTER?!?
Y’all.
I’m exhausted.
But the jewelry was worth showing off!
Congratulations again Keri, and thanks to all of the special mamas who showed their stories and entered!
We are all in awe of you!

Mix and Match Mama says
You have completely sold me on the necklace. Every time I see you wear it, I want to rip it off your body and take it home. It's fabulous! And your J Crew top…um, love it! My favorite part of the post though was that a really deserving mom won the contest. God bless those sweet mamas.
Susan Jeffries says
Congrats to the winner!! What a fun give a way! I am loving this necklace! Thanks for showing all of the ways to wear it! I have been coveting her dangle earrings for a while, but have been afraid they would be too heavy for me. I love the studs now too! Happy Monday! Susan
Slightly Askew Designs says
How cute are you?!?! And that striped shirt is a horrible, horrible tease! The colors and fit are great!!! Happy Monday, friend!!!
Narci says
Okay, you totally talked me into those studs! They WOULD be perfect for summer! 🙂
Megan says
I work with Kerry Roy. She is amazing and absolutely deserves this win! She is one of those people that just radiates God's love. She is a great coworker who loves on students everyday, there is a reason she was teacher of the year last year! She is also the fabulous mama to 2 precious kiddos. Congrats Kerry! Let me know if you need help shopping!!

Can you share your hair products and how you get that awesome curl/wave to stay? If you have already shared, please direct me to it.
Thanks!
stacey says
the first picture you posted of yourself with the little mister… your make up looks flawless!!
Melissa W says
Sheaffer, I am so glad you've jumped on the Kendra train! I've been a huge fan for a little over 3 years now (got my first piece for my first Mother's Day in 2011) and L-O-V-E all my stuff from her! I'm almost nervous to share this amazing, little-known secret out of fear it will become too popular and KS will decide to nix the whole thing, but here goes: If you go into a Kendra Scott store (not a retailer such as Nordstrom, but an actual KS store) and register your birthday with them, you will get 50% off ANY single item during your birth month. HALF OFF. Amazing, right???
{Hi Sugarplum!} says
Stop taunting me with the hot pink pendant!!! and isn't the Perot amazing?! Love that place. And love to walk to Meso Maya for dinner after. #priorities
Tessa Ernst says
Getting the necklace for myself since my husband didn't get my specific hint that I wanted it for mothers day!! Also, it's highlighted in this week's US Weekly magazine, so Pinterest told me to, and so did US Weeklu; so I am sold. Just need to decide a color!!
Habitual Spender says
Ok, serious question… What nail polish are you wearing in the picture of you holding your makeup? Because I NEED it! It's only a bit of your thumb that is showing but that color speaks to me.
Sheaffer says
Hi there! I can't be 100% for sure…but I'm pretty positive it's OPIs cajun shrimp! I love it too!!!!
xoxo,
Sheaffer 🙂
Bama Girl in AZ says
Darn. No size 7 in the puddy sandals so I went with the Callisto "Tiff" instead! Website says they run small, is that correct?
Because Shanna Said So says
I can't quite Kendra either!! I own three of the tassel necklaces and where them alllllll them time! Ms. Kerry is on lucky lady for winning the contest!! Well deserved!!
Kim Kauffman says
You inspired me to wear my green tee, KS Rayne necklace (in white), must have jacket (I'm seriously considering getting a second because I wear it all the time!!), and white cut off jeans. Love! I totally want some earrings now. Gorg!!!
Sarah Thomas says
Sheaffer, where did you get the multicolored stripe shirt you are wearing with the white shorts and denim jacket? Thanks!
Sheaffer says
Hi Sarah! It was from GAP outlet several years ago! Sorry!!!!!
xoxo,
Sheaffer 🙂
Chic Coastal Living says
Congratulations to the winner! God bless her and her daughter! My brother is downs syndrome too and he is the apple of our eye! XO Love Kendra Scott too!
Amanda Bajin says
Congratulations Ms. Kerry!!! Spoil yourself, you deserve it!! 🙂 The ring you designed Sheaffer is just perfect!!
Brandon says
Hi Sheaffer,
Where did you get the blue and green striped shirt above? Love it! Also, ordered the Magenta Rayne necklace and can't wait to get it! 🙂
Dr.J says
Love the J Crew top. Would you say it's true to size? You said you had a 4, but I am also 'bigger' on top as you said you are 🙂 do I need to size up?
Sheaffer says
Hi there! Yes, I would say it is true to size. I didn't have any extra room in my size 4, but I feel like a size 6 would have been too roomy in the body. Hope this helps!
xoxo,
Sheaffer 🙂
Mary says
What size should I get in the wedges if I'm a 6.5? Thanks!
Sheaffer says
Hi Mary! For sure a 7!
Justine says
Sheaffer! First time I have ever commented- but I love reading your blog! And I am a speech therapist too 🙂
Anyway- I have been WANTING the Callisto Wedges but really have a strict policy about waiting until things go on sale to buy them! I freaked out when I read your blog post and immediately hopped onto Nordstrom's website! Luckily, they still had my size and I should be getting them in about 5 days…SO EXCITED! Just wanted to say thank you for the tip!!! Hope you have a great day!
Stephanie says
Hi Sheaffer. I love your blog and look forward to reading it. I just received the must have necklace for my birthday and LOVE it!! Are any other readers remarking that your email is arriving in their in-boxes late at night?? I only receive your blog through my email (not very techy) and it is arriving between 9:30-10 when I have already "logged off" for the night. Unfortunately I am missing out on a lot of the codes that are for one day only (like the one yesterday for example). I'm so bummed to be missing them!
Sheaffer says
Hi Stephanie!
I'm working on this…hopefully I will have an answer in a blog post soon!!!!!! So sorry about the trouble!
xoxo,
sheaffer 😉
Erin S. says
Hi Sheaffer. I am so bummed I missed the Kendra Scott code too! I just received your email this morning, 5/13, and the code is already expired. Waa! I was so bummed because I had finally decided to get the Rayne necklace after seeing all the gorgeous outfits you wear it with. Hope there will be another code in the future.

Hi, what a fun post! The pink jeans, are they NYDJ or Vigoss – the links for both are listed…Have you tried NYDJ, and can you share how they fit? I have a small waist, but not so small hips 🙂 and don´t want anything to gap…Thanks! -Lisa
Sheaffer says
My jeans are actually Vigoss….but they are sold out. So, the other jeans are just options since mine are sold out. I've heard really great things about the NYDJ on another blog, but I've never tried them on.

Sheaffer 🙂

LOVE this! And love your blog 🙂 Could you share your everyday jewelry – wedding set, etc.? Thanks!!! Mary S.
Leah says
SO glad I found this post:) I was wondering if it was acceptable to wear different colored KS items at the same time? IE – white KS neklace & turquoise KS earrings? I love the way you rocked the white & hot pink together!
Sophistikated Style says
Stumbled across this post looking for sizing on Kendra Scott earrings. What's your opinion on the Alexandra earrings versus the Alex earrings? Trying to blindly order online so help is appreciated!
Sheaffer says
I prefer the Alex. Big earrings tend to hurt my ears, so I love the smaller options! xoxo, Sheaffer 🙂
