Sheila Fajl Jewelry

Bohemian Jewels By a Brazilian Beauty
Sheila Fajl is the sole owner and creator of Sheila Fajl Jewelry, a fun and fashionable line of jewelry that has become all the rage for women everywhere. Sheila Fajl Jewelry is sizzling hot in Hollywood, from Eva Mendes, Eva Longoria, Teri Hatcher, and Kate Hudson to Selma Hayek, Katherine McPhee, Paula Abdul, and more. This Brazilian beauty was exposed to the Fashion Industry in her teens as a runway model at only twelve years old. She was always drawn to jewelry and focused on creating her own pieces in 2004 by launching Sheila Fajl Jewelry. These days, her line has evolved into other accessory areas like watches and handbags while she remains the principal designer with a multi-national development team under her. Sheila possesses both brains and beauty as she continued modeling throughout her entire college years and graduated Law school in Brazil in 1988. Sheila is also an entrepreneur because she once had clothing and leather manufacturers that made clothes for Charles Jourdan, Gucci, and Calvin Klein. Sheila’s personal thoughts are, “I love jewelry, love fashion but don’t live for that. I use them to make my life and other people’s life more fun.”
As a child, her creativity emerged in her love for cooking, such as using different instruments like a sardine can to bake bread. Sheila considers her line unique from others because her Brazilian spirit mixed with creativity and international trends create pieces that are both sexy and casual style at the same time. Her customers rave about her jewelry because they can wear the same pieces to the beach or a gala party and still look amazing.
For instance, the Flower and Green Adventurine Earrings are a cute and darling pair with girly flair. Bright apple green adventurine faceted teardrops dangle from 18k gold plated flower silhouettes with simplicity and style. The crisp, clear glint of the green reflects nicely against the brushed yellow gold. They are versatile enough to be worn for any occasion. Sheila’s personal favorite is a special ring with a big chrysophrase stone that has a black inclusion across it. Getting this stone when her youngest son was two, he also has a special fascination with it as it looked like a dinosaur egg where a baby dinosaur might pop out anytime. She wears this timeless piece daily. Her friends also laugh at the fact that out of Sheila’s entire collection, she wears the same pair of hoops everyday. Regardless of what she has on, she ends up with those hoops on.
We love her Stackable Rings with Cubic Zirconias for their subtle elegance and femininity. These lightweight rings feature a mix of colored stones on thin gold bands. The bright and lively colors of pink, green, yellow, purple, and white on each stone atop each ring is a classic. The slender bands are rounded throughout to make these rings easy for stacking to comfortably wear together. Wear these rings as a pair or stack three, or even five together. Sheila brainstorms designs by observing clothing trends and thinking what would compliment and pair well with the hot items for each season. She takes into consideration all different body types and ages, allowing that to translate into her jewelry.
While she does not have one particular favorite designer, she was very influenced by H. Stern while growing up in Brazil because they dominate the jewelry business with their fabulous designs. Sheila is eclectic and loves all jewelry. Everyone could use a little more luck these days, which is why the Good Luck Charm Necklace is both “charming” and cute. This 28” gold plated chain has a ring with a collection of good luck charms, including a horseshoe, four leaf clover, feather, bag of gold, and more. This is perfect for throwing over a tee or pairing with a shorter necklace.
Sheila is down to earth and carefree, a mother of two boys, and constantly on the go. Therefore, she understands the importance of easy to wear jewelry that will add to rather than detract from an outfit. Sheila says, “My pieces are very easy to wear with a very clean look and not very intricate. I love the brushed gold look because it gives the pieces a more casual and rich look at the same time.” Sheila also loves to work with stones while also being very picky about them. She is currently enamored with the outside of the emerald for its dark vibrant green with black inclusions and that each stone is unique and no two are alike. When she finds one she adores, she has to keep it because she knows there is not another one like it. Anyone can see the diverse cultures exhibited in her jewelry. Sheila is always inspired by Brazil and ends up returning with ideas for a whole new collection from her visits. She also loves Indian, Egyptian, and Gypsy jewelry, which is evident in her pieces. Her collection, with now 2000 active items, has increased over the years because she constantly adds styles that remain popular because they are alluring to all women rather than simply being trendy.
The Leaf Branch Earrings in 18K plated gold feature delicate and detailed tiny leaves and branches that will look fabulous for any season. This unique and beautiful pair hangs 2 ½” long and allows movement as it is designed so that the leaves and branches can sway and swing like natural leaves and branches. Available in silver or gold. Another nature inspired
piece that we admire are the Multi Leaf Earrings also in brushed 18k plated gold. Delicate and thin layered leaves cascade downward over the backdrop of a larger gold leaf, as they dangle lightly from a French hook. These 2” earrings are very fluid as they float and move with each step you take. They have just the right amount of sass and shimmer to dress up any outfit.
The Multi Layer Necklace with Discs is an elegant piece that is sure to make a statement. This modern and sophisticated necklace is layered with
multiple gold chains while holding three elegant gold discs alongside. The delicate layering of the dainty gold chains adds depth to the piece while the small and thin gold discs give a focal point. This necklace looks stunning over a simple black dress or a with a business suit. Unlike many other jewelry designers looking to expand, open a store, or increase clientele, Sheila is just plain different. She considers herself a very casual person and chooses to live her life each day at a time rather than constantly make plans. It brings her great joy to reach as many people as she can to make them just as happy as she is everyday.
This wise woman says, “Enjoy life, it’s beautiful and short. Live every day like it is the last one. Live and let live! Don’t get attached to things, get attached to life and love.” A notable and very creative take on the usual semi-precious stone drops are the Snake Wrap Earrings. This unique pair features a slender gold snake with meticulous details curved around a faceted smokey quartz drop. The curved snake stylishly holds the dark brown opaque semi-precious stone and dangles from interlocking gold links.
