Mark Ronson & Bruno Mars Perform 'Uptown Funk'

Cap off September Passion Park Lane jewels with always passionate Uptown Funk.

September Passion - Raspberry Ring

The Fall season is well under way and as October nears, the painted colors of the leaves are reflected in the painted colors of the Park Lane Raspberry Ring - vibrant, bold, and vivid.

Where the Fall leaves eventually litter the ground and crunch underneath feet, the Raspberry Ring remains always.  

The bonus to the Raspberry Ring is linked to the cost - Free Shipping at or after $90 (otherwise standard $9.00 shipping).  Park Lane also offers a special at or after $90.

The One - Park Lane

The One

My Park Lane


The One now rests with Park Lane.

Park Lane was established in 1955 and has grown by the fold.  

The jewelry is on the higher end in terms of quality, pricing, and uniqueness.  Some selections resemble couture jewelry but at more than a fraction of the cost.

I have a huge crush on the ring selection, especially the statement pieces.  I also love the Impression bracelet collection.

The Park Lane bonus, beyond sourcing customers, is earning commission on self-purchases...and the commission is standard to all at base 30%.

As with Chloe + Isabel, I have a dashboard corner office where I can follow sales, commission earnings, and so on.

As with Chloe + Isabel, I started out as a Stylist & Fashion Director.  These are base titles.  The Stylist title remains always.  Fashion Director has the opportunity to grow, which leads to higher commission rates and 5% pay raise from 30% to 35%.  The downfall is that in order to climb the Park Lane ladder, a Stylist has to create a team and for every milestone comes the next title step and higher commission rates.

Although I will never achieve beyond Fashion Director, I love the Park Lane jewelry first and foremost and that is why Park Lane is the one.

The One

Chloe + Isabel

Chloe + Isabel was a luxury fashion brand rooted in direct sales.  The fundamental products were high-end statement and delicate jewelry.  C+I eventually branched out to other fashion accessories such as sunglasses, scarves, makeup, and a partnership with hair stylist, Jen Atkin.  Jewelry, though, was the one.

Everyone who joined earned the base title "Merchandiser."  The next title up was "Merchandise Manager" but that was sales dependent.

Merchandisers had online boutiques we could personally customize & place a stamp on our interest in fashion and fashion jewelry.  We also had a "corner office" where customer orders were entered and commissions could be paid out.

Chloe + Isabel could be seen as a destination or a stepping stone.  For me, Chloe + Isabel was a destination because I was new to fashion and I adored jewelry that could easily pass for display case worthy.

Chloe + Isabel was also a destination for building a business on my terms.  I used my Merchandiser discount to build my jewelry display.  I stocked up on seasonal catalogs.  I networked daily, from family to friends to local businesses that would best make sense to fashion (such as hair salons, boutiques, etc.).

I felt independent.  Just like Set List, I felt like Chloe + Isabel was the one because with my passion, it truly was the one.

Chloe + Isabel shut its doors in July 2019.

The One



In April 2010, I launched my first blog.  I do not remember the title but I do remember how much fun I had.  It was a general blog, no niche and no direction.  I suppose you could say a journal style but without personal notes.  From day to day I realized the addiction to blogging.

In May 3010, I wanted to clarity and focus on a niche specific level, so I reached out to a professional web design company.  I do not remember their name but I do know they claimed my requests were not stated and so said I pay them more or not at all.  I highlighted in yellow what I wanted and they falsely disagreed - in other words, they knew they were wrong but would not admit so.  I claimed back the money spent and branched out on my own...which leads to Set List.

In 2010, I got to personally customize Set List - no template, no specifics I had to follow...just Set List - exactly all I wanted.

From the first post published on Set List to the present day, my heart was with blogging and Set List was the one.

Whether article style, video style, or affiliate style, Set List is about anything music.  No two posts are the same - even if there is a day to day theme.  Every day has a different tone of voice.  Every day has individual eagerness to post.  If I find myself in a blogger's block, I look for inspiration from previous posts or outside sources.

The Set List journey from launch post forward is long and winding.  From time to time I feel exhausted yet I keep going if only for my passion about music and sharing my interests.

Set List is the one.

Platinum

In this year 2022, Elizabeth II was honored the Platinum Jubilee for serving 70 years on the royal throne.

The band, Queen, released The Platinum Collection: Greatest Hits I, II & III in November 2000.  In the U.S., the box set was released in September 2002.

Her Majesty Elizabeth II set the bar for future monarchs by celebrating the Platinum Jubilee (at least from home).

Queen set the bar for pop culture and the music industry, hence The Platinum Collection:  Greatest Hits I, II & III.

From one royal title to another, platinum is an impressive theme.
