Jewerly Haul from Canada

Although I am yet to upload onto my computer the 500 (or more!) photos I took on my three week Canada trip, I have already photographed all my new jewelry from there that I got. I honestly wasn't planning to do much shopping on this trip, but as I walked into a small jewelry store in Old Town Quebec City, I fell in love with the jewelry they sold! $10 a pop, sometimes even cheaper. And the added bonus of the lead-free guarantee kind of won me over. So I decided to do all my back-to-school jewelry shopping back in Canada. Don't laugh when you see how many feather-related products I got ;)


 I love these earrings! This was the first time that I was able to find feather earrings being sold that weren't so long that they were up to my shoulders, nor were they those tacky neon ones that I so didn't like. I love the color and the style!

Lately I am easing into a boho style, and these earrings fit the mark. Kinda long, but oh-so-bold and I just fell in love with them!

$12.90 for designer earrings, anyone? Most designer knock-off jewelry is so tacky looking, but these look so authentic. Even if there was no such thing as the Chanel logo, I would have gotten these, they're so cute and go with everything.


And yet another feather print. This bright peacock print just caught my eye and when I saw it, I instantly thought of three shirts that would look great with it. Kinda went feather-crazy when I walked into this store, I know. At least I didn't grab that third pair of feather earrings I was so coveting ;)


And now, some Forever21 accessories that I got before. I feel that my style has changed a lot in this year, and I know it might change yet again, so right now I'm going for cheap buys that I can wear for a few months while they're in trend, and that's what I did with these pieces:

I don't wear a lot of arm-candy, but I do like wearing a bold bracelet once in a while, and these two seemed to fit right into my style.

 This photo doesn't do justice to my favorite necklace at all. But anyway, it's a bronze metal with that circle (Although the metal floral piece fell off the wooden circle, the horror! :O Better get a hot glue gun soon...) And I think I have worn it 10 times since I bought it, don't judge!

  5. Hey Coco,

    Love your blog - I found you via IFB! The right sidebar is just too cute, did you design that layout yourself? I hate the way my blog looks =/ I'd love some tips from you to jazz up the site!

    I really love the jewelry you blogged about- the pieces are so ornate and unique! My favorite is the vintage necklace you featured last.

    I'm now following you via Google! I'd love for you to check out my blog and maybe follow as well! =)

  6. I completely agree with what you said about the feather earrings! I'm glad you found a pair you liked. The vintage necklace is great too. It's a nice change from the usual silver or gold.

  10. Awesome jewelry finds, girl! Haha, loving the consistency with feathers here. I too go "iccck" when I see neon feathers. Seriously, what does neon really go with? When I see neon, I think highlighters for school. haha Anyways, glad that you enjoyed your little trip to Canada!
