everyday pieces that sparkle and shine to breathtaking statement jewelry.

Bling Jewelry was conceptualized by Elena Castaneda, a fashion industry professional who saw a gap in the market for a fashion jewelry site that any woman could shop. Her first venture was Castaneda's, a high-end women's specialty store in New York City that she owned for nearly a decade. Her next venture was to launch New York Image Consultant alongside Amanda Sanders, which gave her an opportunity to work with some of the world's most influential clients, stylists, designers and entertainers. With opportunities in E-commerce on the rise, Elena knew the timing was right to marry her fashion expertise and business acumen with the Internet. So in 2008, out ofher tiny apartment in New York City and with just $10,000 of her own capital, Elena started BlingJewelry. com. In just six years the destination website for beautiful but affordable jewels has grown into a multimillion dollar business that has seen substantial growth despite the economic recession. •
