Hi.

I started JODIBLK.com in 2014 as a creative outlet to share my style and the things that inspire me.

I live in Toronto, Canada with my husband Jose. My mantra in life is - Less is more.

I look forward to sharing my life + style with you. xx

Hi beauties,

I hope you all had a lovely weekend! I spent some much needed R&R time poolside this weekend, and I took full advantage of the unusual quietness of the city.  

If the title of my blog post caught your attention, chances are you’re a Sex In The City fan like me. When I was 18, all I wanted more than anything was a 'Jodi' necklace similar to Carrie’s 'Carrie' necklace. My mom being the amazing mother that she is, worked with my uncle who’s a jeweller to design + surprise me with my very own name necklace for my high school graduation. It was such a sentimental gift that I’ve always cherished but sadly somewhere along the line, I misplaced it. I remember putting it in a safe place during a move so I wouldn’t lose it. It was obviously such a safe place that I could never find it again (heart breaking).

I’ve been tempted numerous times to replace it with inexpensive options I’ve come across in boutiques and online but it just didn’t feel right. I'm so happy I waited because I recently came across Canadian fine jewellery brand Lafia

Manufactured with love in Canada, each Lafia piece is handcrafted in 14k gold using the finest materials and state of the art technology. I fell in love with the minimal font and dainty size of their Personalized Diamond Necklaces because it's so clean and simple.

I decided on white gold with diamonds to match my engagement ring since a necklace like this is something I will wear forever. I really wanted my new necklace to be a timeless classic that truly reflected my personal style.

I’m so happy with the final result I haven’t taken it off since I got it. I love how minimal it is because it adds just the right amount of bling to any look including this summer pool day outfit I wore this weekend.

The beauties at Lafia were kind enough to create an exclusive 15% discount (JODI15) for my followers so take a browse around and keep this discount code in your back pocket. They also have gorgeous minimal eternity bands and blk diamonds which are next on my list.
