New Jewel(s)

by Leave a Comment

Happy Thursday cuties! I need to share with you the sweetest new jewelry I’ve found online lately…

After seeing this post from Glitter & Pearls, I became obsessed with finding a starfish cuff to finish off summer with. I love this one from Anthropologie but it’s oh, you know, only 200 wallet-burnin’ bucks. But then I saw this post from stripes & sequins and found one I liked even more at BaubleBar!

This has got to be my new favorite online jewelry retailer. Not only are the prices way fair, but the package also arrived with a hand-written note from owners Amy and Daniella! Now really, how often do you see that anymore? Will definitely be buying from them again- if not for their jewelry for their amazing customer service! (But definitely for their jewelry…)

I’m also in love with my new rosette necklace from Etsy member the sweet shoppe:

I’ve been at Etsy fan forever, but usually I just browse. This summer was the first time I ever purchased anything. The last two products I bought from Etsy sellers took forever to arrive, but my necklace arrived so quickly and I couldn’t be happier with it! Plus, Suzy is offering a deluxe set right now: choose any ring, necklace, and earrings for $35! You can’t beat that, so please take advantage of it for me!

Do you have any online jewelry retailers you always turn to? Or any other good Etsy shops to recommend?

I adore flowers.

Ok, generic statement, who doesn’t?  But I especially love them because they, like my own style, can either go preppy or hippy.  This Etsy designer, Brydferth, has created the most beautiful rosette accessories.  Headbands, barrettes, clutches, rings, shoe clips, even a bridal veil!

Black Lace and Golden Silk Rosette Bracelet, $25

Lavender Silk Rosette Shoe Clips with Bluette Clips, $34

Turquoise Blue Cotton Rosette Bobby Pin, $8

Rosette Headband, $34

For the Bride Rosette Hair Piece with Bird Cage, $70

Leanna at The Violet Reaction is hosting a Brydferth giveaway this week: winner receives a custom cotton rosette bobby pin!  I don’t know how I’d even choose a color if I were lucky enough to receive it– will probably end up buying a few on my own anyway 🙂

Check out more of these great accessories here, and let me know what your favorites are.  I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: thank goodness for Etsy!
