SHOPPING SPREE: FOREVER 21 and ALDO JEWELRY HAUL

Hello all! I hope you are having a great day so far. I still can't believe we are almost through half the year. Time seems to be zipping right on by, LOL. Anyway I wanted to share with you a quick post of my shopping haul / spree from a few weeks ago. It is mainly jewelry; costume jewelry to be more specific. Nothing too fancy or expensive but some really nice pieces just the same.



I bought these earrings from Forever 21 for $5.80 USD. I thought they matched fairly well with the bracelet below. I tend to buy pieces that I can mix and match with other jewelry already in my collection. Also, the pieces don't always have to match exactly (size and shape) and they don't always have to be same exact shade or color either. 


I absolutely love this bracelet. I purchased it at Forever 21 for $8.50 USD. The color is reminiscent of green Jade which I love even more. I am an avid collector of all things Jade, especially the green Jade so this was a definite "must have" for me. The bracelet is described as mint and gold in color and the design is a faux stone pyramid. It is a stretchy bracelet so it should fit most everybody. Typically I wear a 7in. bracelet and on my wrist this bracelet was a tad loose but not so much that it would fall off. 


Later when I went to ALDO I found these earrings for $8.00 USD. I knew they would compliment the mint green bracelet pictured above so perfectly. Also, since I have multiple piercings in my ears I have the option to wear both pairs of earrings at once. Or I can go for a more subtle look and wear just this one.   


How cute are these rings!

I purchased the two rings as a set at ALDO for $7.98 USD. However there was currently a sale going on. If you bought one item then you got another item for free. Also I believe there was an additional discount given on top of the BOGO (buy one get one free) but I honestly don't remember what it was. Anyway, the mint green ring matches perfectly with the mint green ensemble and the peachy pink ring matches with the other ensemble. I love how this is all coming together so nicely.


Of all the items that I purchased these earrings are my absolute favorite piece. I purchased them at Forever 21 for $4.80 USD. They are described as peach in color (although personally they look more pink to me) and the design is a graduated square drop earring style. Even though they have a little bit of weight to them they are still super comfy. This is the peachy-pink theme that I mentioned above.


I purchased this bracelet at Forever 21 for $8.80 USD. The bracelet is described as peach and gold in color and the design is a faux stone pyramid. It is identical to the mint bracelet pictured above except this one is a different color. At first I wasn't going to purchase this bracelet because I wasn't overly fond of the peach-y color. It wasn't until after I had found the peach graduated square drop earrings that I decided to get the bracelet. I think the two will complement each other very nicely. Overall I'm happy with it.


I purchased this set of bracelets (there are a total of six) from ALDO for $14.98 USD. As I mentioned earlier, ALDO had a BOGO (buy one get one free) promo currently advertised and these bracelets qualified for that discount. Now, I can't take credit for choosing them because I had a little help from the wonderful SA (sales associate) working. She saw me trying to match up my FOREVER 21 jewelry purchases with stuff being sold at ALDO. So she suggested these bracelets because 1) they are very versatile, 2) they were part of the promo going on, and 3) they complimented the ivory coloring in my other bracelets.

Well, that's it for my Jewelry haul. I hope you have a wonderful week and I wish you an even better weekend!
