Slight Obsession...



I think it's safe to say I may have a slight obsession with costume jewellery... But if you ask me you can never have enough of it. Opposed to real gold or silver jewellery, costume jewellery is affordable. Due to the fact trends come and go, it's nice to know that you're not spending an overly expensive amount of money on something that may only fit a temporary trend. 

Costume jewellery truly does complete an outfit. It's capable of dressing up an outfit such as a black knit or a simple white tee. Some of my favourite stores to get trendy costume jewelry from include J Crew, Holts (and hr2), Banana Republic and Club Monaco (slightly pricier). 

From top to bottom: 

1. BCBG; gold cylindrical necklace with crystals. Perfect for dressing up a casual outfit or accenting your favourite little black dress. 

2. LuLu's; Taupe and yellow chandelier like design with accent crystals. One of my favourite necklaces- it goes with almost everything and always pairs nicely with knits and collared shirts. 

3. Holts; Coral, orange and yellow glass necklace. Looks great with coral- works with lots but I tend to always pair this necklace with summery coral dresses! 

4. J Crew; Pink chicklet necklace with clear crystal accents. Love wearing grey with this necklace because it really makes it pop and truly adds flair to a simple v-neck tee or knit. 

5. Indigo (who would have thought); forest green and pink crystal necklace. Works well with navy and black. 

6. Holts; Forest green intricate crystal necklace. Pairs well with neutral colours and even funky colours like hot pink! 

7. J Crew; Staple grey necklace. This charcoal grey necklace can be paired with just about anything! 

8. Can't remember.....; Sapphire crystals. This is one of my favourite necklaces I own. It's one of my more expensive pieces but was completely worth it. This piece is timeless and versatile. 

9. Holts; Blue and gold necklace with clear crystal accent. This is also a very versatile piece- it can be worn on a day to day basis or with more dressy outfits!
