BorrowedBling Launches Jewelry Lending Website
May 24, 06
The Crystal Cocoon company, who has supplied jewelry and accessories for celebrities and TV shows, such as “The Young and The Restless” soap opera, have launched the first website to ever offer the borrowing of jewelry online.
The recent launch of BorrowedBling.com offers a new solution for getting that upscale and fashionable “celebrity look” – without having to make any costly or permanent investments.
Jude Ferguson, former buyer for Arribas Brothers explains, “After searching everywhere for a top-quality, exclusive product line that would absolutely dazzle our customers and capture the magical environment of our store locations, which are on over a dozen Disney properties, we carefully selected Crystal Cocoon Designs. Within weeks, the product was selling fast and being requested by our customers.”
When asked what inspired her to create BorrowedBling.com, Carol Wexler, the company's owner, replied, "As a former special education teacher, there were many times I saw items that I would have loved to wear, but just couldn't afford, on my teacher's salary. Usually the kinds of items that we see the celebrities wearing are not accessible to most of the public and I wanted to help make these looks within the reach of everybody. So, I created this website as an affordable, new way for anyone to be able to wear the finest looking jewels and accessories. Not everyone can afford to buy a thousand dollar crystal purse, or a $300 necklace, but most everyone can afford to borrow these items.”
The BorrowedBling.com website stocks the accessories, including: belts, jewelry, crystal evening bags, and sunglasses, which can be borrowed for a monthly fee that starts at $29.95 and rises to $99.95 a month depending on how many items the customer wants to borrow at any one time.
