I have been looking for some casual jewellery wear as I seem to be just slobbing about in my quicksilver clothes as they are they make the most comfortable jeans in the world when you want baggy ones.

I have found that New look do lots of quirky little stud earrings or even  hoops depending on the look you are going for but be careful you don’t look like a chav when wearing hoops and casual clothes because I have nearly made this mistake lots of times.

Top shop and River Island do a good range as well but I have found these tend to be more dress up jeweler with their headbands, cocktail rings, over the top necklaces and even bracelets.

I am obsessed with shoes at the moment, the other day I threw away 8 pairs of shoes which I have not even worn in about a year as they are so dated but I convinced myself that they would come back into fashion one day.

Lastly I have to say that I saw a girl going into the gym the other day with a full face of make up on, bangles all the way up her arm, a long necklace on and big hoop earrings, why on earth would she do that??

beyonce-shoesHow on earth does she walk in those shoes, i thought it was only Victoria Beckham who wore rediculously high shoes.

At 5 ft 6 inches she is the same height as me so she is not exactly small but with these on she must be at least 6 foot (maybe a little exaggeration he).

If i tried wearing these shoes i think i would fall over and that is without a alcoholic drink inside me.

These have got to be from christian louboutin by looking at the size of them.

I am jealous that 1) she owns a pair of these and 2) she could actually walk in them..

I have just had a look on Asos.com and they have a brand new section with items which are £10 and under.  There is a few bracelets and necklaces on there which arent half bad.

There is actucally a nice French Connection bangle which is priced at £4.00 (see picture below) whichi i think is a bargain too good to miss, especially with the summer coming up and all the dresses being dusted down.

asos-bangle1There is a sale on selected shoes as well with up to 50% off so whilst you are looking at the bargain jewellery why not pick up a pair of shoes as well??

I am finding now that a lot of places are using discount codes for the likes of half price delivery, special offer (eg 2 for 1) and they are adding these on to their website.

For example i received a news letter from Dorothy Perkins by email today and the special offer of the moment is half price delivery when you spend over £40 if your use the code when ordering your items.  Another good online store is Asos which recently had an offer for 20% of when you use the code given to you.

There are also lots of sites out there which your can print off vouchers with discounts on which a lot of my friends use and email me the vouchers to which they think would be usefull.  I have been online today looking to see what they have on offer and there are loads of differnt items/ services you can get them for.  Eg – Ipod engraving, clothes, electrical goods, mobile phones, jewellery, flowers.

For a look at what you can get type Discount Codes in Google and have a look at what it brings up,  you may be suprised.

Let me know if you get any great offers that cant be missed.

shoesNow most people are suffering from the Recession but that does not stop Christian Louboutin bringing out a new style of shoe with a whopping price tag of $6295 or £3,975 and are on sale at the designer’s New York boutique.
Not only do they come in yellow they also come in pink and blue and come with a book explaining how they were made.
Only 36 pairs have been made so I am looking out for which celebrity will have a pair on their feet, I am betting that Victoria Beckham will be pictured by the end of the week with a pair on.

If you thought Dune was just for shoes you would be wrong as they have now launched a range of jewellery including statement necklaces, chunky cocktail rings for spring summer 2009, a selection of charm bracelets and other beaded pieces.

I have been on the website www.dune.co.uk and the bracelets range from £28 to £35, the necklaces are around £40-£45 and the rings seem to be around £25 so not the cheapest in the world but you can also save a shopping trip and buy a pair of shoes to justify the postage cost.  he

My personal favorite is the necklace below at a cost of £45..

I have found a top that will go with jeans or a skirt, the best thing about it is that it only costs £14 from Peacocks..

I have always thought of Peacocks as a shop only my Mum would go in but it is not overpriced so is ideal for a top/dress/shoes which you will only end up wearing the once.

They have some funky jewellery and some handbags which start as low as £8.

I am not saying they will always have what you want in but why not have a look and see if there is any bargains you can get your hands on, I did and found some…

A lot of people are struggling buying presents for their loved ones this Christmas period and are resorting to getting Bad Credit Loans to ensure they can afford this but a lot of the jewellers have now lowered their prices because of the change of tax to 15% and also if you log onto the websites and a few of them have a discount voucher you can print off and use or have sales in their shops.

Goldsmiths even do a 0% interest free credit where you get up to 36 months interest free credit. Now that sounds like a deal and they actually have some half decent jewellery on their site.

I am trying to hint to my boyfriend to buy me some expensive jewellery but he is moaning about the cost but now I know about the special offers the shops have on at the moment I will give it another go and leave the vouchers around the house and he may take the hint, but you never know he is a man.

Personally I will be waiting until boxing-day to hit the shops when the sales start because they are meant to be absolutely awesome but I hate the mayhem.

Office have brought out their high platform shoes with a bit of bling on them. Me and all my friends have these in different colours (black, grey, leopard print, tartan, pink, cream etc) but now some of them are going out buying the new style as there is a sale on everywhere at the moment to go with their frocks for the Christmas period.

I love the cream ones with the silver glitter heel and the clear diamante on the front.

“Details

The Real High Platform is exactly that, with a whopping 5 inch stiletto heel and 1 inch of platform you will definitely stand out in a crowd. Purple suede upper, leather lining & synthetic sole.”

When you think of bling it does not always have to involve jewellery, I have found these cute little Ballerina shoes with a diamante on the front. They come in a few different colors and I had to get 3 out of the 4.

Believe it or not these shoes are from Wynsors and cost a mere £7.95 so they are affordable to everyone, but if you went to River Island or Topshop you would be looking at paying £15.00 plus.

For further details visit Wynsors online or there is a list of shops you can visit…
