Bangle Charm Bracelets By Disney Couture Jewelry

Disney Couture Jewelry makes some of the most cutest bangles with inspiring quotes on them. The design is so simple that it can go with any outfit. I like the simplicity of it, since anyone of any age can wear them!! All of them are 14K plated. 

The Winnie the Pooh Bangle Charm Bracelet ($38)

 

"You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, smarter than you think."

The "Have Faith in Your Dreams" Bracelet in Black ($35)

The Snow White Bangle in White & Gold ($45)

"Whistle while you work..."

I'm not much of a fan of Winnie the Pooh, but I really want this bracelet the most. The quote is something that everyone should be reminded of everyday. The "Have Faith in Your Dreams" bracelet would be the most versatile, and in my opinion, it looks the most expensive. I also like the charms on the Snow White bracelet, but $45 is too pricey for my budget.

New La Mer Watch Designs

So it's only been a month since I purchased my watch, but new styles are already out. And the price for my watch went down as well. -_-. I should have waited. Anyways, the top 3 designs that I like are:

 Turquoise Crystal Multi Chain Watch ($152)

 Stud Watch in Pink ($90)

The Gold Volcanic Chain Wrap Watch ($102)

And again, the most expensive one happens to be my favorite. I like the pink one only because it just is in perfect time for Spring! It will look so cute with a light spring dress. I won't be purchasing one anytime soon, but I'm so annoyed that they came out with new styles AFTER I bought mine.

Karmaloop.com Purchase Experience

Since I did not write a post about my very first Karmloop.com purchase, (Betsey Johnson Ruffed Out Crossbody), I decided to write one for my second purchase. It came in about a week, and I can say that I don't have anything bad to say about Karmaloop.com. Everything was packaged very well with bubble wraps, and they even give you a free magazine. I only bought 3 things:

The Apple Metal Ring in Black by Disney Couture ($38)

I personally preferred the red/gold ring, but the person I purchased it for doesn't like gold jewelery, so I went with the black one. Either way, they are so cute!

La Mer The Bali Stud Watch in GOLD $115

The Crystal Bow Ring (SOLD OUT)

 

So here are the actual pictures:

La Mer Bali Watch

So here is my overall thought on my purchase. I was anticipating the La Mer watch the most because it was a watch that I ALWAYS had my eyes on. It's really cute and very well made with soft leathers and good hardware. I like that its made in Japan, since I wouldn't have to worry about the quality  :]. One thing I am disappointed about is that it doesn't compliment my skin tone. My skin is medium beige (in makeup terms), and the watch looked way better on my friend with fair skin. I think I would have purchased the gray pyramid, or the leopard print one for my skin tone. My second purchase was the Betsey Johnson Crystal Bow ring that I bought for $14.95. I bought it on impulse (the price was right), but I really like it. It just looks very pretty on my fingers. It makes me happy just looking at it! The Disney Couture Apple Metal Ring was purchased for my friend, and she just loved it! If it was for me, I would have purchased the red one, but that's just my preference.

The Nina Cardi in Black and Silver by Motel

I've never heard of this brand, but I think this cardigan looks cute and chic. You can just wear it with a plain tank, leggings or jeans, and look casual but fashionable at the same time. My only concern is whether it's one of those itchy types of sweater. Its on sale for $37.95 (originally $90). You can get it here for $31.93 shipped with the PROMO code and REP code I have listed at the top of this blog. Promo code expires end of February 2011.

The Cat Ring by Betsey Johnson

I usually think Betsey Johnson accessories are a little too much, but if something is cute, it's cute no matter how unpractical it is!

Case in point- The Cat Ring from Betsey Johnson. I can't get over how cute it is! But do I NEED it? And how would I ever wear it without worrying about poking my eyes or anyone else's for that matter! The ring retails for $26 and you can buy it here.

OTHER CUTE JEWELRY:

The Blue Hoop White Bow Earring $35

The Pink Heart Domes Ring $30

The Pearl Bow Stretch Ring (ON SALE) $18.95

The Crystal Bow Ring (ON SALE) $14.95

La Mer Watches

I've been interested in La Mer watches ever since I saw it in a magazine about a year ago. I like that it is functional but stylish at the same time. Unfortunately I have not seen these in person, so I can't comment on the quality. But it looks like a brand that would be sold at Nordstroms. There's a variety of different styles, but my favorite designs that are being sold at Karmaloop:

1-La Mer Pyramid Stud Watch in gray $98

2-La Mer The Leopard Watch $82

3-La Mer The Buckingham Charm Watch $110

4-La Mer The Gold Egyptian Chain Watch $84

5-La Mer The Bali Stud Watch in GOLD $115

6-La Mer The Bali Stud Watch $98

They come in other variety of styles including ones with silver hardware, but I tend to gravitate towards gold, so I just posted the ones that I like. I'm still debating on which one I should get, but I am leaning towards the last two. I don't understand why there's a $17 difference between the those two when its clearly the same style. It's just my luck that the one I like the most (3 and 5) happens to be the most expensive.

GREAT...

Betsey Johnson Ruffed Out Crossbody Purse

I am ABSOLUTELY in LOVE with the Betsey Johnson Ruffed Out Crossbody! I saw it at Bloomingdales, and the leather was so buttery soft!! It was love at first sight and I KNEW I had to have it. It looks and feels expensive too! I'm so glad I didn't purchase it then because I got it from Karmaloop for $114 instead of paying $158 retail. I am bummed out that it went on sale to $105.95 AFTER I purchased it though. You can get this for $89.15 SHIPPED here if you purchase this now with coupon code: SHIPTV and rep code: HOTDOG!

I am tempted to get the matching Betsey Johnson Ruffed Out Large Satchel, but the color is a bit much for my style. It usually retails for $288, but Karmaloop has them for $208. You can get it at their site for $175.03 SHIPPED with the coupon code and Rep Code I have listed. I think the 15% off + Free shipping code expires end of February though.
