Etsy First Impression/Haul

So I recently came across the awesomeness of Etsy due to funsizebeauty, and I fell in love with their concept of homemade/vintage jewelry. I can't believe I've never purchased from this site before. I decided to buy jewelry (mainly earrings) from this site.

The biggest nuisance is having to order separately from different shops, which is understandable but it was annoying to pay for nearly four orders, each one with an expensive shipping price with it, so basically i spent 20 bucks on shipping which was sort of ridiculous. The ones that were made in the US arrived within a week, UK a week and a half, anywhere else between 2-3 weeks. Overall, I was happy with all the merchandise. 

These Mickey and Minnie earrings are my absolute favorite pair of earrings now. I adore them!

 These elephant earrings come in four different colors: lime green, bright sky blue, brown, or pink. I opted for the blue, which gives plain outfits a subtle pop of color.

 Yes. I'm a Star Wars fan.
I squealed when I saw these R2D2 earrings and received them as a birthday present. Thanks to my great friend Nicole! 

 Ah more nerdiness. Let's face it, I'm a major geek (though in my eyes I don't see how liking Star Wars or Harry Potter makes you a geek). I couldn't resist buying these HP Deathly Hallow earrings, gotta rep my Potter love.

 The epic nerdy streak continues.
I fell in love with this HP braclet online but I find it difficult to clasp since the claw itself has no chain attached to it which can make it a little difficult, especially since I have tiny wrists and really need to get close to the bracelet. It's still lovely though.

Jewelry Collection: Bracelets, Rings & Watches

Here is the next part of my jewelry collection. As you can see from the title, this will be a compilation of all my bracelets, rings, and watch. I say watch since I only have one. In case you did not know, I'm not an avid jewelry wearer and prefer simplistic pieces that you can pair with any outfit for everyday use. 

I purchased this lovely gold charm bracelet from Guess.

I'm a HUGE fan of the TV show, Friends, so I decided to purchase a cute little accessory to showcase my love. I purchased this at the NBC Merchandise store for around $8! It's a little big around my tiny wrists though but I still love it.

This bracelet was from Urban Outfitters. E for Emily!

I got this super cute Hello Kitty watch from Kohl's for around $30 but it later went down to $25!

One of the cutest rings I've ever seen, this ring was at the Hong Kong Disneyland Resort Gift Shop. Random, I know.

This ring set is from H&M, it also came with a gold but I gave it away to a friend.

This Hello Kitty ring I bought when i was a little girl and it still fits since the band's adjustable. A "W" charm used to be attached to the circle underneath but I took it off. Btw, I apologize for the poor quality of the pic.

Jewelry Collection: Earrings

Nearly three months ago, I wrote a blog post on my jewelry storage. Today, I decided to share my jewelry collection, which isn't very big. I tend to stick with simple, dainty jewelry that can pair with any outfit. I'm definitely not an avid jewelry wearer and I'm sure someday I will be. However, my biggest jewelry collection definitely has to be my earrings. I love earrings because you can either go classic, trendy, or bold in a subtle manner. Anyways, here is a compilation of my most worn earrings: 

Left: Comeback Brixton Earrings; Right: Darling Audrey Earrings
Clearly, these are from Jewelmint. Brixton ones are so edgy, I only dare to wear them out with my hair down.

Both are from Claire's. Aren't the little pandas adorable?!

Both from Nordstrom's Rack; Left is by Ralph Lauren, I forgot the other one

Left: Icing  Right: Delia's (I actually find them very difficult to put on due to the awkward curvature of the backing)

Icing (set). I love flower earrings.

Claire's and Icing. I adore pearl earrings.

Claire's

This is by far my favorite pair of earrings of all time. I got this near Christmas time last year at the  MGM Grand gift shop in Vegas.

My Jewelry Storage

So I know I'm a very materialistic person and jewelry is definitely one of my weaknesses. I'm not even an avid jewelry wearer, but I have an uncontrollable urge to buy accessories that I think are cute--although I'd never wear it.

I decided to share my jewelry storage and possibly give you ideas.

This revolving bird cage for earrings is from Urban Outfitters.

 This jewelry tree is from Michael's. It's great for storing bracelets, necklaces, rings, etc.
