Arm candy

y Oia Jules order came in today. I've been eagerly waiting its arrival since I placed an order for them last week via Style/Stalk- a discount shopping site that is curated by some well-known stylemakers. You can also purchase Oia Jules jewelry through Etsy.

I purchased 3 bracelets- the chunky gold chain link bracelet with faceted aquamarine quartz; the gold chain link and pavé ball bracelet; and the textured gold link bracelet with gold pavé skull charm. I bought each bracelet for $36 + $7 flat shipping rate to Canada.

I thought the bracelet on the far left (with the aquamarine quartz) would be a lot heavier, but it's very light.
I'm not sure if that's a good thing. Maybe it feels cheap? But it's still very pretty. I can't wait to layer
these bracelets with other bracelets in my jewelry collection. I wouldn't necessarily wear these
3 pieces altogether. I just took a snapshot of them all on my wrist.

Here are some other bracelets that I've purchased within the past month and a half.
The top bracelets are by Expression from The Bay. I think I got 3 for $11?  The pink bracelet
below that is from J. Crew. I bought this for $22 a couple of days ago.

Cellphone case obsession

've been having a cellphone case obsession lately. Last week I purchased the Kate Spade NY iPhone case after I saw it on Stephanie Sterjovski's blog. I got mine via eBay and it came with 6 home button gem stickers in colours complimentary to my iPhone case. I stuck the gold one on the home button because it matched the gold spade colour on the back of the phone. The only negative thing about this case is that it feels flimsy. I feel like the case will snap out easily. I got this for around $20 on eBay.

The second case I got yesterday at Pacific Mall. I've seen this case around in various blogs [Pink Horrorshow and HRH Collection (at the 18:57 mark of the video)] and when I saw it yesterday I had to have it. It came in lots of different colours, but I liked the pink and white one. I got it for a steal at $10. It's a much sturdier material than the Kate Spade one so I currently have this on my phone. I absolutely love this case!

Stocking up before the baby is born

ll I've been doing lately is stocking up on things before my 2nd baby arrives (due date is July 21). I know that it'll be hard for me to go out in the first month after baby Kendall is born because I'll probably be getting no sleep and getting used to the schedule of the baby. So I've slowly been purchasing items on my shopping list in preparation for that.
One of the things on my shopping/wish list were these Anthropologie bowls that I first saw at a photographer's studio a year ago. They are made in Japan and come in the most beautiful patterns. I love how the inside of the bowls also have the patterns. I've seen people use these bowls as serving bowls and even to store their jewelry. I'm not sure how I'll be using them, but I just know that I needed to have them.

Look how pretty they look stacked on top of each other.

I got these bowls for $10/each. They also came in a bigger size, but I liked the smaller size.

I think there were 2 other patterns that I didn't purchase.

I'm so excited to have these in my home collection :-)

So while I was at Anthropologie I noticed a sign that said 25% off of the already reduced sale items. I love Anthropologie, but I find their price point to be a bit too steep. So when I saw this sign I immediately browsed the sale section of the store. I found this beautiful tunic top with an asymmetrical hem that was by the brand Leifsdottir. It was originally $268CAD, but it was reduced down to $49.95 + an additional 25% off. Score!

I wore this top on my 2nd last day at work- July 11. I love how I can wear it after I have the baby.
I refuse to buy maternity clothes! 

The colour of this top is gorgeous.

My favourite part of this top is the beaded detailing.

This is the back of the shirt.

Isn't it gorgeous?

I love finding deals like this. It just makes my day.
