Deals of the week:

I've recently become quite obsessed with websites that have random discounted items on a daily basis. And by random, I mean anything from beautiful necklaces, to table runners, to items of clothing. These aren't websites with a large variety of items, but just enough to have you purchase things because the price is so good. Just last week I managed to snatch up four bright pink chevron table runners for a bridal shower I'm designing, the price tag for each was $11.95! I had searched everywhere on the internet for rentals, with zero luck! Here are some items that have me tempted this week! Check the websites often as they add items very frequently. Don't wait though, some items sell out fast!

200 Yard Spool of Baker's Twine from Simple Addiction

Price Tag $3.95

 

J Crew Inspired Rose Necklace from Brina Box

Price Tag $19.99

 

Digital Personalized Chalkboard Print from GroopDealz

Price Tag $6.99

Bubbles:

I was and still am completely obsessed with the Bubble Necklace from JCrew. It comes in six beautiful colors (Pink, Green, Navy, Royal Blue, Pink Blossom, & Turquoise)  and currently has a sale tag of $120 (from $150). Unfortunately, this price tag is still a little high for my pocketbook, specially if you want it in ALL colors! Ever since my obsession began, I have stumbled on many vendors selling look-a-likes for a third of the price (it was fate!). Here is what they look like!

 

 

{ILY Couture $49.00 Got it in Yellow and Ivory}

 

 

{Ebay $13.92 got it in Gray}
 

 

{Ebay $11.89 got it in Navy}

{Ebay $11.96 got it in Green}

 

The only downside to Ebay is that each necklace was bought from a different vendor, because I could never locate the same vendor. I was worried that the purchase would be a scam, but since the prices were so low, I tried not to stress about it! If you need this in a rush for a party I wouldnt recommend it, since shipping can take anywhere from 2-4 weeks.

 

Here are some other great vendors

who sell it as well!

Preppy Chic:

Stumbled on this adorable new shop Swell Caroline! Here are some of the items on my wishlist!

Dabney Glass Stone Bib Necklace {Three Color Options} $175

London Bracelet $34

More is Chic:

I have always been a devoted believer in the phrase "Less is more" and as Coco Chanel once said, "Before you leave the house, look in the mirror and remove one accessory", so I've been pleasantly surprised at all the fashion pictures popping up everywhere revealing that piling on accessories, can actually look chic! I'm sold!

Lost & Found:

I have been obsessed with this necklace from Oliphant Design for a while now. I  had seen it on the Today show a couple of months ago and haven't been able to stop thinking about it ever since! With a $125 price tag, it's not terribly expensive, but with a new baby and a new house, a new necklace isn't exactly on the top of the priority list. As luck would have it, I found an almost exact replica for a third of the price! Can you really tell the difference?

{Sea Green Bauble Necklace from Oliphant Design $125.00}

{Hey, Jade from Modcloth $44.99}

Local love:

I was at an art festival this weekend, and stumbled on this local artist named Cecilia Gonzales who makes beautiful, delicate charm necklaces. There were too many to choose from on site! I will have to visit her store to buy one, but you don't have to live in Miami to snatch one. Her items are also available on her website.
