eBay Success!

A couple of posts ago I talked about wanting some jewelry and instead of heading to the mall, I fired-up my computer and decided to try out eBay!

After two weeks of waiting for my pieces, they finally came in!
Eagle Claw: $2.50
My new eagle-claw bracelet pairs perfectly with my gold watch. 
J.Crew Bubble Necklace: $17.99
This bubble necklace is my new favorite piece!! 
This bubble necklace is the same necklace that they sell at J.Crew. It even has J.Crew stamped on it, so to be honest I feel a little guilty about cutting out the middle man! But in the end, something that retails for $150 and $15 is now hanging with my other pieces for a fraction of the price!

Happy Shopping!

Savvy Shopping

I love accessories. We've talked about this before, so this is nothing new to any of you. 

I also LOVE a good deal. Being young and married, there's not a whole lot of extra to go shopping. So I stick to finding great clothes finds at consignment stores and TJMaxx and Marshals are very dangerous places for me to go visit. 


So recently, I have been feeling the need to jewelry shop. I follow a couple of really great jewelry places on Instagram, but two of my favorites are BridierBaubles.com and LoveAlwaysjewels.bigcartel.com. While I was jewel searching on these sites, I came across these two pieces...



A little hard to see but it's called the Boca Grande

Don't ask me why but I LOVE the claw bracelet
Now, together these two pieces come out to be about $45. Not too bad, I'll admit, but when you're trying to save every little bit helps. So  I decided to do something I've never done before...shop on eBay. 

I did a little searching and I found the exact same pieces for a fraction of the price! I found the bracelet for $2.75 and the necklace for $17.99. While it made me a little nervous to shop on eBay, I'm so glad that I did.

I haven't received the them yet, I did just order them on Tuesday, but as soon as I do I'm excited to show off what this savvy shopper found! 

I hope everyone has a fantastic weekend!

Happy Shopping!
