INTRODUCING THE PINKLETTE ENAMEL STARFISH NECKLACE DESIGNED BY FORNASH! A FUN DESIGN FOR SUMMER

Pinklette, owned by Dove Donovan, is the retailer and she is the person we worked with for this review. As you know we are all about PREPPINESS!!! Previously we featured this item made in Pennsylvania by John Wind Maximal Art sold by Pinklette:

Dove seems like a perfectly nice person though we have not met her-Dove where did you prep? Starfish are always fun for summer, and we love nautical, preppy-themed items of quality. We really like the color and design of this necklace, however although Pinklette says on its facebook page that they are made in the USA, and we would like to think that more products are manufactured in the United States, they are not the designer and they are the retailer. This designer is Fornash and our sources say that they manufacture overseas. It has been our experience that if designers manufacture overseas, often they are proud of the country they are made in and specify it like shoes made in Italy, cheese made in England, wine from France, etc however, it is mostly brands of European origin that say this and rarely do brands manufactured in Asia want to let you know this or the exact country of origin. When we requested to speak to Fornash to find out more, as their designs seem fun, our request was not forwarded as maybe they are aware of our sincere dedication to both patriotism and commitment to quality manufacturing regardless of the country.

The Pinklette website says about this piece:

One of our top sellers, our Enamel Starfish Necklace is beachy perfection. Colorful enamel surrounds a gold and crystal finished starfish inlay while a crystal finished toggle clasp completes the look. Available in blue, light pink and white.

More about the retailer:

Pinklette is an online boutique featuring fun collections of jewelry and accessories inspired by preppiness, which is why we love it. Oooh we're going to have to tell the Goddess of Prep, Mover and Shaker, Awesome Author Carol. Emma Grant wants to know when Pinklette will start pug prep. Pinklette has categories of Nautical, Preppy, Equestrian and Monogrammed pieces.

With their preppy vibe and modern twist on classic chic style, Pinklette has quickly become a favorite of fashion editors.

"As you know from my past features, Peachy Deegan and I were in the same class at Boston College prior to either of us becoming entrepreneurs. When we played together on the BC Alumni softball team in Central Park years ago, she mentioned she could not find a great dentist in Manhattan and could often be found networking on her phone in the outfield hiding from the ball. She was my second patient ever in 2006 when I opened my dental practice; I was one of the first sponsors on Whom You Know and the first Mover and Shaker featured in 2009 and have worked with her continuously since. She's even talked her friends that are doctors into being my patients, and they subsequently send their hospital colleagues. I don't know anyone that is as great of a networker and writer as Peachy, nevermind that she is upstanding and always good for her word. Cosmopolitan Dental is so happy to be in the company of the caliber of major brands she works with today, and although she will tell you a million ways to get your teeth dirty between Peachy's Picks, Terrific Takeout and Peachy's Pantry, Peachy Deegan will tell you there is only one way to get your teeth clean!"
