Style Friday!!! $5 Statement Jewelry at Walmart and Jewelry Haul....

Hey Everyone!!!

I'm doing a new segment on Friday called Style Friday and today I ran in Walmart and ran into $5 statement earrings!! Walmart is trying to catch up with Target! I've seen similar styles of those earrings in department and speciality stores running $10 and up and UP. I wanted to "clean house"( and I will.:)) but I'll be back! There were so many styles, I took photos so I can go back and choose. Trust me, these are going to nowhere at my particular Walmart. #ruralAmericaproblems

I was also looking for a necklace to complete an outfit ( it's the necklace on the black top below) and also picked up some $1 jewelry at a local boutique.

Have a great weekend!!!!

Let's Shop! Customizing Jewelry with Anjolee.....

Hey Everyone!!

From luxury to handmade to costume, I love jewelry. I think most of my old readers know that by now! The adornment of jewelry is ultimate style for me. I need to be in at least four pieces of jewelry a day and every piece must tie together effortlessly. Sometimes, I get a creative bug in my spirit and think of pieces I would like to make. Then I realize that even though I'm very visually creative, I'm not as handy with tools, glue and paint as I would like to be. That's when sites like Etsy and Anjolee come in.

Anjolee is a jewelry company that allows you to customize fine jewelry to your standard and liking. All of Anjolee pieces can be customized according to preference of metal type, diamond size, diamond/gemstone quality, and length/size. Plus you customize with gemstones and birthstones.


I've always craved a tennis bracelet and a pair of diamond stud earrings. For me, those are two classic pieces for a jewelry wardrobe. The diamond earrings can be dressed with any necklace and the bracelet can worn alone or layered with other pieces. Plus they both look decadent on the wrist and in the ears.

I chose to customize a pair of Royal Four Prong Diamond Studs, 14 carat White Gold with 1.46 carat weight. I thought the prong setting was gorgeous and unique!

I also played around and customized a tennis bracelet. I chose the Princess Cut Dreams Bracelet. It is literally the bracelet I've dreamed of since I was little girl looking through jewelry catalogs and going in jewelry stores with my Granny. It's 18 carat White Gold, 4.05 carat and I also selected the wrist size a little bigger than the 'standard' since I have thick wrists.

That was FUN!!!!

Visit Anjolee at www.Anjolee.com to customize some amazing pieces for you or your love ones!

If you had a chance to pick a piece and customize a piece from Anjolee, what would it be? Let me know in the comments!

A Fresh Coat of Nail Polish: Bonita Starry Night....

Hey Everyone!!

I'm excited to start my Fresh Coat posts again. I have SOOOOO  much new polish, it's ridiculous. However, I was struggling with alot of ups and downs with my nails: the growth, then splitting, and peeling. All of these problems had me feeling so uncomfortable and not confident about wearing polish. I thought, if I didn't wear polish, no one would notice my nails being a wreck. I could see my Granny  getting me together for that decision!

I picked up two Bonita polishes yesterday at a Rite Aid. I've never tried this brand, but they had a beautiful fall color story display and the price was right ($1.49), so why not pick up a few colors. This shade is Starry Night, a green-blue with iridescent fine glitter. I only applied one coat and it was completely opaque. I wonder if all the Bonita polishes have that formula.

What you think about Bonita polishes? Let me know in the comments!

Flower by Drew Barrymore Fragrances in Sultry, Radiant and Cherished Review + TWO DUPES......

Hey Everyone!!

Last week, I spotted the new Flower by Drew Barrymore Fragrances that I heard Nouveau Cheap talking about on her blog. I really like the makeup line, the few pieces of it I have, so I was excited to check out the fragrances. And just like makeup, I wear a variety of price range of scents, from expensive to body sprays. Just as long as it smells good on me.:)

I wouldn't call this a review because I haven't checked the scents with a body chemistry to see how they really smell on me. This post is more like a "first impressions" on how the scents smell to my taste. I found some very interesting things about them, including TWO possible DUPES!

Sultry

"is a sensual and alluring oriental floral"

I do find Sultry sensual and spicy and I'm curious to see how it works with my body chemistry. I automatically wanted to buy this one on the spot. Sultry smell the most original out of the three.

 Radiant

"is a striking and confident sparkling floral"

I IMMEDIATELY thought Radiant smelled familiar. I kept smelling the scent tab and it smells very close, really close to Estee Lauder Pleasures, the original one. I wore Pleasures for years and years. It was the first high end scent I ever bought when I was in college.

Cherished

"is a comforting and nuzzly powdery floral"

It smells exactly like Victoria's Secret Heavenly. Yep. A drugstore dupe of Heavenly.

I think I'll go back soon for Sultry in the rollerball.
