Hi.. I am Jennifer the owner of Bella Vie!

My name is Jennifer and I wanted to tell you a little bit about myself. I am a wife to a wonderful man, Shawn and a mother of 2 beautiful children, Bella and Brayden. As far back as I can remember I have always loved fashion and style. My first job was as a sales associate in the junior department at McAlpin's. I worked there while I was a student at UC. I then worked my way up and went through the transition of them being bought by Dillards another department store chain. I oversaw many departments by the time I was 23 and continued in many leadership roles as time went on. I then worked for The Limited, Brighton Collectibles and ended my 20 year retail career with White House/Black Market a privately owned company carrying just clothes consisting of Black and White. I ran the 87th store within that company and the store succeeded, making 1 million dollars in the first 8 months of being open. I then decided that once my daughter Bella was born that I wanted to be in a different role, a mom. I then decided to help my husband with his small business and with that I got to bring some of my leadership roles to his business and be a mom, with that I am so grateful. While helping Shawn with the business, I also crafted many things. I had a small business called Bella Beauty Cuties, making beautiful hair Barretts for little girls. I would just do local craft shows on the weekends and I really enjoyed it. Fast forward many years later and here we are, my husband bought a 3-D printer for his business and I started making earrings for myself for fun! I would be out at stores wearing them and women just loved them! I started giving them away just feeling a lot of joy just giving these beautiful, lightweight earrings to women who saw the beauty in them. Within 2 weeks I came up with a name for the business “Bella Vie” Beautiful Life, named after my daughter Bella, I created a website, designed my business cards and here I am! I can’t wait to share all of these beautiful earrings with you all. Thank you for looking at my page! I will be doing many craft shows within the Cincinnati area and will be selling these on my website www.bellaviejewelry.com “Life is too short to wearing boring jewelry”
