The DL: Upper Metal Class

Monday, October 24, 2011

Upper Metal Class is one of my favorite jewelry shops around. Her simple, dainty but interesting jewelry is right up my alley - we claim we are some kind of style twins. I just purchased the bar earrings (featured in the first question!)

Anyway, I'm excited to bring you an interview - Upper Metal Class has been increasing in popularity all over blogland and even threw a giveaway at Cup of Jo (alright, that impresses me). This month is going to be the opening of her website and she is celebrating it up on FB with a spectacular giveaway that you can get in on here. Be sure to like UMC and enter to win. Unless you want to not enter and let me win?
