Fashion Accessories Haul From This Past Weekend (Part 1)

This past weekend I went to Chinatown (in Manhattan, NY) and Payless Shoe Source where I picked up some new costume jewelry.  I love costume jewelry to death and I was hungry for more so as I ran into things I bought them.  This post is of the stuff I got from Payless only…the next post will be the couple of items I got from Chinatown.  Here we go!

I found myself in Payless to see what shoes they had for the big feet girls in the size 10 section because they never have anything cute for us and if they do they only order one pair so that means everything cute is sold out.  Anyway, I picked up two pairs of flats – one pleather and the other patent leather – to wear to work during the week.  It’s all good.

I then hit up their limited jewelry rack, but there was so cute stuff on there so I picked this stuff up…there was a buy 1 and get the 2nd one 50% off everything in the store so I was compelled to get some fashion accessories (all Minicci brand, of course and everything was $9.99 and under – less with the discount):

I love love love this bracelet…it was $9.99 at full price.

This stretch ring looks like the color of titanium or maybe a little darker, it’s shiney and the balls in the middle move so they jingle a little bit when you  move your hand.  Cute!  Can’t have enough studs so I picked up another multi-stone pair.

This necklace is gorgeous.  It’s double strand and reaches just above my belly button.  It’s just enough flash for me and it’s my first long necklace ever and it’s rare that I like long necklaces like this.  Very pretty.

Last, but not least, I picked up a pair of shades / sunglasses.  HOT in person…the pics do it no justice.  They are light brown with gold embellishments.  Pure love.  Reminds me of J. Lo.

A Costume Jewelry & Accessories Haul

I didn’t mean to haul any costume jewelry, but I got some good deals on some pretty pieces so here they are…

This first pic is of a necklace which is a Claire’s brand that I got from a Chinese dollar store in Chinatown (Manhattan, NY).  The stones in it look like stones, but they are plastic and the chain is made of cheap metal links and so is the back of the pendant that holds the plastic stones.  I like it.  It’s light weight and it looks good when I’m dressed casually in black.  I got it for a 2 dollars.

The next pic is of the rest of my Chinese dollar store haul.  All pieces are Claire’s brand and I got them for $1.25 each.  The black earrings are black and I think they are so cute and different.  I’ve only seen earrings like that in metal so when I saw it in black and in plastic I jumped on it.  Love.  The silver earrings are just cute.  I can wear these earrings out or to work…I love the charms that hang from them a lot and they are made out of a light weight metal.  The bracelets I bought are identical and are just dark silver plastic, shiney beads on a thin rubber band which is unfortunate.  I bought a second one just in case I break one.  I decided to wear one to work. I wouldn’t wear these out because I can get drunk and break it.  Ha!  Very pretty though.  I know that Forever 21 carries the same bracelets, but the rubber band is better quality.

Lastly, I went to Payless Shoe Source to get my little one a pair of Dora boots…the ones that look like UGG boots and I ran into $2.00 earrings.  Most of the earrings were marked down from $9.99 so I had to buy.  The earrings speaks for themselves.  I have misplaced one earring and I’m sure it’s in the car some where so I posted the one I had with me.  I hope I can find it!!!!!
