[Sammydress] Collective Jewelry Haul - Rings & Earrings


Hi lovelies!

I decided to do a collective haul for my purchase at sammydress.com. This is a website that sells Asian jewelries, accessories, clothes, and products in an affordable price. They now seem to expand a little more as they now have prom dresses and holiday-themed products. I am satisfied in terms of their price and design; however, they seem to unmatch with their displayed pictures. Whatever the issue may be, here's my collective jewelry haul. My bracelet and miscellaneous jewelry haul will come up soon.


Rings

Korean Fashion Romantic and Grace DIY Finger Ring ($1.07 | here)
I bought this ring in order to stack it with other rings.
I love this ring except for the fact that it has little bump that is quite visible with bare eyes.









Korean Style Cute Leaf Design Rings For Female ($1.05 | here)

This is once again a different product from their picture. My ring appears to be made with a shiny and light-reflecting material; however, the picture they have on their website seems to be less shiny and in perfect leaf-shape.









Laconic and Elegant Two Pieces of Leaves Design Rings For Female 
($1.13 | here)

Again, this one does not look as shiny and thin as their picture's ring appears to be.


Angle Wing Pattern Decorated Finger Ring ($1.18 | here)

This ring was the only one of which looked close to what they show on their website.






Earrings
Retro Wing Design Women's Earrings($1.59 | here)

I think I confused this product with other products but again, it doesn't look as gold as it does on the picture.





Korean Fashion Style Exquisite Butterfly Shape Olivet Earrings ($1.04 | here)

By the time I opened this pair of earrings, I was totally hopeless how nothing looked as they did on the website. The products sent to others are all imitations of those photos. Same goes for this earring: the end of the wings are sharp-looking whereas the earrings that I got have more rounded-looking. The pearls don't look as pearly as they do. The gems on the butterflies don't as neat as they do on the picture. UGH! I can't complain enough.







That's it for my rings and earrings haul. I hope you enjoyed my pros and cons!

[Haul] More Jewelry & Clothing Haul

I'm currently writing about my Missha eyeshadows (will be posted on Monday) and my July Hits and Misses (will be posted on either Tuesday or Wednesday) but until then, here's my mini-haul post :)






I purchased this pair because it reminded me of J.ESTINA earrings. Comparing to the ones that costs at least $90 for a pair of earrings, I think this is an inexpensive and offordable choice (I think it was about $1.50). 


$90 vs. $1.50? Ladies, I would buy $1.50 earrings and buy something else with $88.50, perhaps 60 more earrings.

Don't you just LOVE this ring? I don't think this picture really shows but it's a teddy bear with a bow tie :) 



cute. cute. cute.

A pair of classic silver hoops... you can never get bored of this... :)

This is a black see-through T-shirt with white, silver, gold, and black pearls. I think this T-shirt, for some reason, is huge in Korea since it is EVERYWHERE (Department stores, inexpensive clothing stores, etc.). 





Here's a close-up of the pocket with colour pearls :) I think this pocket can hardly keep anything but the detail is simple but amazing (besides, who keeps anything on their pockets?).

I really love T-shirts with very simple or no detail at all, in order to code it with  necklaces. Same goes for this one. I guess the beads try to imitate shape of a pocket...? Whatever it is, I still love this T-shirt :)




I hope you enjoyed this haul and comment, subscribe, or follow me if you would like to keep up with this blog :)

[Review] Jewelries: Swarovski, JEWLIX and Accessorize

Whenever I think of Audrey Hepburn, I picture her as Holly Golightly from Breakfast at Tiffany's. Having an up-do hair with a beautiful tiara, she matches a black dress with her signature pearl necklace. 


I know Breakfast at Tiffany's was a great film, but nevertheless, the film could not exist without these beautiful jewelries. Although not everyone can afford a Tiffany, Hapburn demonstrates woman's desire for jewelries.


And it still continues. we can never have enough.




'Kay, let's forget about this fancy intro and see the jewelries I bought in Korea.
(Disclaimer: these are what I bought in a day + a gift so this will not be a huuuuge review as you may want it to be.)








Accessorize (Necklace):



Two cute necklaces came into my sight when I entered Accessorize. This "Keepsake Bag Necklace" (don't really know what it's really called) is cute. I really cannot find a better word than this (what an English Specialist, eh?) It looks perfectly adorable! I think you can code this with a plan V-neck T-shirt (preferably black or white) and skinny jean :).








Accessorize (Necklace II):




I don't know what this necklace is called but this vintage telephone necklace is sooooo adorable! I'm thinking of giving this to my friend as a souvenir :)








Accessorize (Ring):


 

Here's my rinnnnnng :) I first thought it was waaaaaaaaaay too big for me but it looks really classy when you try it on. Although the pink gemstone-lookin' plastic in the centre looks quite cheap, pearls in the petal-shaped (or sunlight-shaped I guess?) metal makes this ring look cute and classy.  






This was the ring itself also has its unique design (really hard to describe what it looks like). I reaaaaaaally love it! I think I would've bought the ring even if it didn't have the gemstone-looking plastic and pearls.  









Swarovski (Tinker Bell Dangling Earring):


Here comes Swarovski :) I own necklaces from Swarovski but this was my first pair of earrings from them. This was a gift from my cousin and they are called Tinker Bell Dangling Earring. 


 
( It says 'Disney' at the back )

Aren't they adorable? They look like "Tinker Bell spreading the magic of her star dust" (according to Swarovski), made with Aurora Borealis and clear crystals. They look quite attractive as they demonstrate the contrast between their white colour and my black hair but I think they will work for the lighter hair colours too since the Aurora Borealis and crystal really attract surrounding lights and capture people's attention. 
 




JEWLIX (Earring):


JEWLIX is not a famous jewelry shop but it is just one of the brands this store I visited has owned... but who cares? Earrings look perefctly amazing nevertheless. The centre, as you see, has pearl with a mini tiara on top. In case you haven't seen my explanation about JEWLIX from "Review Preview",  the pair looks like a faceless princess with tiara :$ don't you agree? 



I usually wear dangling earrings but I think these suit for any occasions from formal parties to casual coffee dates. I think the pair is worth more than $29. I loved the price and I loved the quality.




JEWLIX (Earring):


This pair of earrings is shaped as Mickey Mouse....again, faceless. Like I said in my Review Preview, I think I'm addicted to these weirdly faceless earrings (I'm seriously kidding, don't take it seriously!) Back to our topic, I love these earrings because of their simplicity. You can match them with any non-formal occasion :)   





And... my review...is done ! I was going to create a video out of the these jewelries but my battery died.... fail... I'll try to do a video review for my next post :)

I hope you enjoyed my review and subscribe or follow me on Twitter if you want :)
