Horseshoe Necklace Archives

Happy Friday! For Steals & Deals I want to discuss the horseshoe necklace. This necklace became even more famous when Sarah Jessica Parker wore one and sometimes multiple layered horseshoe necklaces on Sex and the City as Carrie Bradshaw. This specific one is from Tiffany’s and I love how dainty it is, but not everyone wants to spend that amount of money on a necklace. There are so many options that I have found online that look exactly like this necklace, but at a fraction of the cost. Eve’s Addiction has one that is only $20.30 and is almost identical to the one I am wearing. If you are looking for one that is maybe a little bit smaller than this one, check out Swarovski that have one that is only $79! If you are looking for one that doesn’t necessarily have diamonds or faux diamonds, Tiffany’s does have one that is sterling silver at $150. Another option for a smaller horseshoe pendant without diamonds is from Dogeared necklaces which are known to be small and dainty, but also not as expensive. I found this one on Zappos website and it is only $48. All of these options are great gifts for someone that wants a timeless necklace, but also something that is simple. Sometimes it is nice having a necklace that is simple and elegant and doesn’t require much thought when putting it on. I love mine and I have currently been wearing it everyday. Hope you enjoyed today’s Steals & Deals and go out and buy one of these beautiful necklaces for someone special. <3

Happy Monday! Now what is a Fall wardrobe without including a great black leather skirt. This black leather skirt is from Alice and Olivia and I am obsessed with it! I bought this skirt 3 years ago during summer right before I moved to New York. My mother always says with certain staple items in your wardrobe they are your investment pieces. She says this because these are the pieces that never go out of style and you will wear from season to season to season. When it comes to looking for a great leather skirt find one that is a solid color, but also one that isn’t necessarily a straight cut. This skirt has pleats in it and also it cinches at the waist. Unlike other leather skirts that I have tried on in the past this skirt gives me more of an hourglass shape, but also with the pleats it makes the skirt look fuller than it actually is. Someone one time even asked me when I wore it out if I had something under the skirt to make it look fuller than it actually was. If you are unsure if you would wear a leather skirt every winter then this season buy a faux leather one and test it out. See how often you wear it during the season and if you find yourself wearing more than 5 times before spring then you should purchase the real deal come spring. Like I previously said I purchased this skirt during the summer before I moved to New York because it was on sale. These pieces are honestly the best to buy during the off season because they get heavily reduced, but if you want one right now just remember that Thanksgiving is just around the corner!! Crazy! Hope everyone has a great Monday.
