    Add Vintage Appeal To Your Look With A Pocket Watch Necklace!

    One accessory of the past that I wish had never gone out of style is the pocket watch necklace, or pendant watch. There's something so refined and sophisticated about this vintage-inspired timepiece, dangling elegantly from a chain and worn as a necklace, or placed carefully inside a breast pocket. While watches can also be beautiful, a watch necklace is not only eye-catching, but unique and practical as well. Is there anything else you could ask for from a piece of jewelry? With the layered look still at the forefront of jewelry trends today, a pocket watch necklace frees up a wrist from an everyday watch and allows you to pile on a few more bangles and bracelets. Plus, a pocket watch necklace nestled amongst other chains and necklaces adds interest and texture, giving the wearer a look that's both vintage and modern. Take a look at some of my favorites by clicking on the slideshow!

    What girl doesn't love jewelry and accessories? The right jewelry can make even a simple outfit of jeans and a t-shirt seem trendy and more dressed up. I'm definitely guilty of wearing a lot of jewelry all the time with necklaces, rings, bracelets and earrings on all at once. Although there are millions of beautiful rings out there though, that is the one item that cannot be piled on in multiples without running the risk of looking a certain Beatle. Cocktail rings were all the rage and still a great piece to add shine and glamour to your ensemble, but the new craze for your digits is the 2-3 finger ring. They're unique and allow you to wear a little bling on more than one finger comfortably and stylishly. Plus, they kind of resemble glorified brass knuckles so make a little more room in that purse by throwing out the pepper spray and just don one of these pretty bad boys instead!

    So unless you've been living under a rock, or have holed yourself up in a dark room, I'm sure you've noticed by now that it is pretty much Halloween. It's this Saturday and maybe you've been thinking about finding something cool to go as or just finding any costume, really, so you can join in on the Halloween spirit and festivities. But what about that bank account? Halloween is still a great deal of fun for any age, but now that you understand the value of a dollar more than you did when you were five, you realize that blowing upwards of three figures for one night that you'll remember through a haze is not that a great of an idea. Your rent is due soon, there's that bill you really can't put off anymore and the Holiday season is fast approaching as well. Have no fear (except for those ghosts and goblins that'll be roaming around in a few days), because after doing extensive searching and bargaining hunting, I've found quite a few Halloween accessories that are easy on the pocketbook and, when added to clothing and accessories that you and your friends already have, make a great costume for cheap! Click on the slideshow to see some great Halloween costume ideas that'll leave enough money in your wallet to buy your own Halloween treats!

    It's all about making a personal statement through jewelry these days. Chunky bracelets, multi-layered necklaces and huge earrings help add character and individual style to sleek outfits, but many times, these gorgeous works of wearable art cost more than we're willing to shell out. The great thing about statement jewelry is that it's eye-catching and highly memorable, but the downside is also how memorable it can be. Sure, you could wear your statement piece every day, and you'd certainly get your money's worth, but people would probably begin to notice and you might get bored of the piece yourself! Check out the slideshow for our favorite standout pieces and scoop up a few to add to your outfits- at under $50 each, you can shift your thinking to style statements, not bank statements!
