A Letter from Me to You
Hey you,
Let’s be real — life’s not linear.
It’s not always polished. It doesn’t come with a script. And it rarely makes perfect sense while you’re standing in the middle of it.
I’m Kjersten — a mom to three beautifully wild boys, part of a not-so-picture-perfect blended family of seven, and someone who’s lived through enough plot twists to finally stop pretending she’s got it all figured out.
I’ve started things with my whole heart — businesses, nonprofits, dreams — some that soared, some that quietly unraveled, and some that looked “successful” but felt empty. I’ve been the girl holding it all together, and I’ve been the woman falling apart in silence. I’ve had a smile on my face and a storm in my chest.
And somewhere between the chaos and the clarity, the ache and the awe, SayLaVee was born.
It didn’t come from perfection.
It came from the scraps — of old dreams, late nights, relationships stretched thin, moments of magic, and all the messy, miraculous in-betweens.
Our blended family is full of love… but it’s not without complexity. There are people we wish we saw more, moments that don’t fit neatly on a holiday card, and days we’re just surviving the noise. But that’s the truth of so many families — not broken, just human.
For as long as I can remember, I’ve loved giving and making others feel loved. Jewelry has always been that for me. I have pieces from people who meant the world to me and have since passed, pieces from friends who gifted me something special, and pieces from my husband and kids that lifted me up on the hardest days. Each one carries a story. Each one made me feel loved, seen, and cherished. That’s why jewelry holds such a sacred place in my heart.
Out of that came our heartbeat: Your Story, Your Sparkle. Because jewelry is more than something you wear — it’s a reminder, a keepsake, a spark of love you carry with you. And with our Buy One, Gift One model, you don’t just choose a piece for yourself — in whatever way you need it most — you also get to gift another piece to someone else. To spread the sparkle. To spread the love.
Because your story matters. And so does your sparkle.
With love, always,
Kjersten
Why SayLaVee Exists
Because somewhere along the way, I realized we all need something that helps us remember who we are — and how far we’ve come.
We need space for the real stuff.
For men who carry pressure like armor but still show up with steady hands.
For women who build lives from broken pieces and call it home.
For anyone who’s ever asked, “Is this all there is?” and still found the courage to keep going.
SayLaVee is a play on C’est la vie — “such is life” — but it’s not a shrug.
It’s a salute to the survivors.
The hopeful.
The quiet fighters.
The ones who find light even when they’re the ones holding the match.
And it’s for the ones who believe in spreading the sparkle — who light others up just by showing up with love. Because the world needs good right now, and even the smallest acts of kindness can shine brighter than we think.
Every Piece Holds a Story
Whether you wear a charm to remember your child’s giggle as they ran through the sprinklers, or a simple necklace to mark the loss that changed you, or a bracelet that reminds you of a concert, a promise, a birth, a goodbye — it means something.
This isn’t about trends. It’s about truth.
- And truthfully?
- You don’t have to be polished to be powerful.
- You don’t have to have it all together to be whole.
- You don’t have to explain your scars to be seen.
This Brand Is for You If You’ve Ever...
- Grieved something no one knew you lost
- Loved fiercely, even when it hurt
- Started over, even when you were scared
- Needed a reminder that you matter, even on the quiet days
Whether you’re a mom, a dad, a student, a husband, a friend, or simply a human walking through life with your hands a little too full and your heart a little too open — you belong here.
So Here’s What I Hope You Remember
You are not too late. ● You are not too much. ● And you are absolutely not alone.
SayLaVee is a soft place to land. A symbol of your journey. A celebration of everything you’ve been through — and everything you still are.
And here’s to all the lovers, the givers, the light-bringers — the ones who spread more sparkle in a world that needs it now more than ever.
And To the One Who Helped Me Believe Again
To my husband Stacy —
My biggest supporter, my anchor, my peace.
From a relationship that started when most people thought it shouldn’t… From whispers, lies, and lost friendships… We stood through it all. We fought for each other when it wasn’t easy. We built this life with our bare hands and tired hearts.
You remind me what real, relentless, unconditional love looks like — every single day. You believed in me when I didn’t believe in myself. You saw the dream before I had the words to explain it. You are my home, my soft place, and my reason to keep rising.
Thank you for standing beside me in the beautiful mess. This brand — this dream — carries your fingerprints too.
Wear your truth.
Keep your story close.
Shine through the mess.
And live the hell out of the life you’ve been given.
With all my heart,
Kjersten
