After looking into what the evil eye is supposed to be able to do for its wearer, I decided to invest in some jewelry with the symbol on it. I wear necklaces frequently, so I thought it would be best to get a necklace if I’m really going to get the most out of its [...]
You know how I feel about the Pop Up Shops in Dayton – but ARIN puts me over the moon with their gorgeous jewelry. Last Saturday, I decided to check them out ARIN and really didn’t know exactly what I would find. Of course, I’ve heard [...]
