Joyful Heart in the News

You wouldn’t know it by looking at me but I love jewelry. I just never wear it very much – as long as I have on my wedding rings I’m accessorized. Between the kids pulling on necklaces and the bracelets getting caught on things while cleaning. It’s really a hassle.

However, when I get a chance to dress up, the jewelry is a must have. Most of it is costume jewelry and not very expensive. But I do dream of the day I can shop til I drop at Bloomingdale’s. Wouldn’t that be a dream come true for any of us?

This Mother’s Day, Bloomingdale’s is thrilled to support the Joyful Heart Foundation, a special charity founded by celebrity mom Mariska Hargitay.  In case you’re not familiar, the mission of the Joyful Heart Foundation is to heal, educate and empower survivors of sexual assault, domestic violence and child abuse, and to shed light into the darkness that surrounds these issues.

Bloomingdale’s invites us to help support this important cause by –

Shopping Bloomingdale’s and bloomingdales.com for two must-have gifts (perfect for mom, or any fashionista!)  that support the cause:
