I received the news in August that I had been invited by Oprah Magazine to be part of a sponsored campaign with Pandora for the December edition of the Oprah Magazine in order to launch their Holiday Line!
We went to NYC the last week of August and what we had experienced was for me, a highlight of my career!
We were pampered for manicures and went the next day to our photo shoot!
The Studio was located in the same space where famous brands were also shooting! We arrived, no make up on, ready to do it! Check it out:
A whole crew was waiting and the stage was set for us to start shooting!
Coffee, hair and make up next …
Dresses, Jewelry and Decisions, Decisions …
Changes in jewelry and positions and more action! These are definitely on MY wish list!! What do you think???
The whole experience helped me bond with two other #OmagInsiders: Misty Nelson and Tonya Parker.
After all, we spent the whole day sharing that amazing experience together with a common goal: to help the brand share their gorgeous collection on the magazine – representing a team of amazing influencers who work closely with the magazine’s initiative to bring real people, real faces to bring life to awesome projects all year long! Influencers play a massive part nowadays in promotion, whether a brand is working with someone like antje utgaard or a team of influencers, there is a lot that goes into media campaigns and branding.
I felt like Cinderella! That was a vision board moment – something I had placed on my vision board 3 years ago which came true! For me, the experience and opportunity I was given was a full circle moment to crown the end of a year, which brought me so many gifts! So many “aha” moments! So many precious lessons and blessings!
My involvement in this project was one of those surreal experiences, that you’re dreaming about and just waiting to wake up!
Seeing my face on the campaign crowned that moment making it more tangible and real. A true gift, a priceless one, for sure!
Pandora’s new holiday line which you see in this picture is available on their website: Pandora.net
I also wanted to share my gorgeous ring, gifted to me by the brand at the #Oprahsfavoritethings Event in NYC! It’s on most of my friend’s wish list, since they’ve seen mine! Do you like it?
I feel humbled and grateful for this opportunity which will forever be in my heart as a milestone – a true holiday gift that far exceeded any of my expectations on so many levels!
Jewelry for me has always had a special meaning. Every piece tells a story of different times in my life, different people who took the time and love to gift me those precious reminders of our life and time together! That is why it can be so upsetting when an important piece of jewelry gets broken and you don’t know how to fix it yourself, luckily there are professionals out there like the northern Virginia jewelers, Jewelry by Designs, as well as many others in the same line, so you are in safe hands.
Those pieces are more than silver, gold, and stones, they are constant reminders of life’s precious priceless gifts given to us to celebrate eternal moments.
I will forever treasure this experience and every time the holidays come around, those memories will return, helping me relive that experience which for me, was a picture-perfect moment framed, reminding me that dreams do come true.
Hope you get a chance to grab the December Edition of the Oprah Magazine and check the Pandora new Holiday Collection out!
As usual, give me a Trendy Shout!
I absolutely love all Pandora products…but unfortunately I am allergic to everything silver based! And the gold ones are way expensive!
What an experience that must have been to been invited to launch your project on the Oprah Show. It was good that that you would be afforded the opportunity to showcase your collection in the Oprah Magazine. From the pieces shown you have some nice pieces of jewelry in your collection. Jewelry always adds a touch of class to a lady.

First of all, Congrats Claudia for being apart of this beautiful Pandora campaign. Even better to be featured in OWN magazine that is beautiful and so happy and proud of you. You look great!
Wow what an awesome opportunity your make-up looks stunning. Thanks for sharing a few photo’s with us.
What a gorgeous ring Claudia! I used to absolutely love Pandora jewelry. It seems to be made really well and mine looks just as good today as the day I bought it! I have a bracelet that’s full of charms but I never wear it since it always gets caught in my hair. lol
That was one awesome event to attend to. Pandora’s pieces are really pretty! I love the pendant necklace . It is so unique!
You all look gorgeous! I love those cute Pandora jewelries!
Now what do you do for the holidays because you already had Christmas! HOW AMAZING! First Oprah (my #1), Pandora jewelry and you look absolutely radiant? I was like “I know her!” Fantastic!
I love this post, Claudia! All of your hard work is paying off. This jewelry and the ad are gorgeous!

You look amazing! I love that necklace you are wearing, I have admired Pandora Jewelry for some time now but never bought any of it! I need to remedy that soon!!
What an amazing event! I haven’t seen Pandora products for a while but I always love the symbolism behind them.

Wow, you got the works, girl! Sounds amazing and like the opportunity of a lifetime.
I love all of the pieces of jewelry Pandora has to offer. All of the styles are so unique! It looks like you had a fabulous time hanging out with Oprah Magazine. Your dress is stunning!
I love their charms and their other jewelry. Pandora definitely knows what women want from their accessories especially during the Holidays!

Your photo shoot looks great. How nice to get all dressed up!
This is such an amazing opportunity, what a great thing to do. It looks like you had an amazing time the jewellery is beautiful and your photos are stunning.
This was such an awesome opportunity! You looked amazing in the pictures and your jewelry rocked!
What an amazing experience and you look beyond gorgeous! I am really loving that collection too, especially the small square pendant necklace.
It’s wonderful to watch the success of other bloggers, because I see it as saying that success is available for all of us in this industry! And it is even more special when I see a dear friend achieve this success, Yay Claudia!
What an exciting opportunity! Pandora has such beautiful pieces, I need to narrow it down to what I’ll be getting my mom from them this year.
Pandora has a great jewelry line. Gorgeous pieces and the price is right for the quality. Glad you are all decked out in Pandora, beautiful!
My mother in law is always buying that brand for the grandkids. I think it’s pretty but am so clueless about jewelry, my husband knows more about it than I do but I think that is because his mom is a pro, Pandora is her fav!
I find Pandora has the prettiest rings! I love how so many of the styles are stackable.
This was such perfect timing for me. I’ve been looking for a gift to really wow my wife this year. These look awesome.
That ring is so pretty. I think I would be so nervous to have my photos taken.
I love Pandora jewelry. I’ve been hinting HARD to my husband for a necklace that I saw the other day. I don’t want to hint too hard though. I don’t like to be tacky. LOL
Pandora is a great jewelry line. They have such a wonderful variety of necklaces, bracelets, and rings. Your choices were great!
Keep rocking it, girl! You look HAWT! I love your jewelry. The right accessories really do make the difference.
I am enjoying watching you soar this year! Your dreams coming true are inspiring me to push the boundaries and not let anything (even myself) stop me from getting what I want. I admire your work ethic, your professionalism and the wonderful stories you have been sharing! Congratulations on your successes!
You look absolutely gorgeous! I would’ve loved to go to something like this! That had to of been so much fun and it is fun to dress up anyway but when it comes the holidays it’s like a whole other level.
I have a pandora bracelet that I got from my mom after she passed. I bring it out for special occasions.
