Welcome to "Sparkle More" - Our Brand New Blog!

Hello Superstars!

Angela and I are soooo excited to welcome you to the new official blog for Starlette by Tendeza Moda called "Sparkle More" - your new top source for jewelry industry updates, company updates, product education, amazing and inspiring stories from our growing community of Starlette Superstars around the world, and more!

People often ask us what we love most about our jobs, and the answer for us is always the same - we love being a part of this truly "stellar" community of customers, employees, and partners!

I know from recent conversations with some of our customers, that at least a few of you have experienced what it's like to go to work in the morning, put in hour after hour of your best effort, and then be rewarded with criticism and negativity.  Well, Angela and I can relate, which is one of the reasons that we founded Tendeza Moda in 2024 and bought Starlette shortly after that.  We were inspired by you - our customers - by your stories of joy, of love, of courage, of the sacrifices you've made for the people you care about, of your triumphs and the challenges you've overcome, and of the special moments and memories that you've allowed Starlette to play a small part in.

Our dream is to create a company that genuinely cares about people, that both celebrates our individuality and builds connections around the things we share in common.  We believe that beautiful, high-quality, durable jewelry doesn't have to come at a price point that only 10% of the population can truly afford.  We believe that young couples shouldn't have to start their marriages in debt to pay for an engagement ring.  We believe that great style and fashion can and should still be environmentally and socially responsible.  We believe that when you look good and feel good, there's nothing you can't accomplish, and we get out of bed and go to work every morning excited about the opportunity for our little jewelry company to play even a tiny part in your happiness and success.

If you're reading this and you're already a loyal customer and follower - we thank you for being part of this exciting, wonderful, and diverse community of Superstars.  And if you're just discovering Starlette for the first time and you feel the same way that we do - then we extend the warmest of welcomes!  Here's to dreaming BIG and sparkling MORE!

Sincerely, 

Tim Lantz, CEO
