Accesories: A Turquoise Summer


I love turquoise jewelry. I think they are essential for summer and look great with white or black centered outfits. I got all of these at my local jewelry store called Vines and Roses. Each piece was just under $20 which I think is a really great buy. If you're on Long Island and interested in checking this store out, you can find more information here.

I'm looking to do an Accessories Swap from someone from the United Kingdom. As you have a ton of really great stores I do not have access to- Accessorize, Topshop, etc. Please let me know if you are interested, I can purchase for you from Forever 21, Urban Outfitters, etc. Just send me an email at thebergdorfbrunette1@gmail.com or just comment me back on this post! Thanks :)

Vines and Roses Jewlrey Haul

Okay, so I got a lovely jewelry haul last Friday from a local shop called Vines and Roses which is in my town. It's a great little boutique and it has some fabulous sales for Mothers Day.



I purchased the two necklaces above, they are so so cute. I have a huge thing for flower accessories nowadays, I think it's because I have started to wear my Marc Jacob's Daisy Perfume.



I got the peace sign ring for $15 I think and the bow tie ring for $9.50 which is a great bargain. They were both 50% off so I just had to get them both. I finally got a manicure, so I wanted to start wearing some pretty rings again. I have on my nails Essie's Gucci Muchi Puchi which is a baby doll pink that is a bit darker than Essie's Fiji.


Finally, I got two pairs of earings. God, I love dangly earings. They are so flattering on me and I am grateful my ears can stand tacky, costume jewlrey, unlike many people I know who can only wear 14kt gold in their ears or sterling silver. They both are gorgeous pairs of earings and I can't wait to wear them. I tried the leaf pair on and they are quite heavy, I tend to only wear heavier earings when I go out, so I'm saving those for a special occasion.

I got my mom a wallet for Mother's Day too, but I forgot to take a picture of it. I got her Crocs for her birthday which was last Friday so I burnt a hole through my wallet this weekend! Okay I know what your thinking... Crocs? Really... Crocs? I think she's been lemming these for awhile, as they look quite comfy (trust me I would NEVER wear them) but I was walking through the mall and there was a Croc stand and it was practically calling my name. I got her the Malindi ones shown above for $29.99 and they are quite cute! I think she's going to return them and get them in black, but I tried them on and they are perfect for doing gardening or just relaxing at home. You can purchase a pair here on the Crocs' website.
