Earring Haul - LoveliiYou Button Earrings - REVIEW

Box 1: Candy Cane, Authentic African Wax Print, Blue Polka Dot
Box 2: Nautical Baby, Authentic African Wax Print*gifted pair
Box 3: Colored Chevron, BlackMusiq, RRRR
As promised, here is the more comprehensive post on my collective earring haul from LoveliiYou .









I purchased the
1 1/8 " size earrings for $6.99 a pair. These are the large size.
The Nautical Baby earrings are 1.5" and sell for $7.99.

The smallest pair underneath the Nautical Baby set were a gift to me from the owner, Angel.
Shipping prices are reasonable. Communication is excellent. I am excited about wearing my new earrings as I am sporting short hair these days. Which pair are your favorite?

Mirrored Jewelry Armoire (Updated with Price Comparisons)

I had been dreaming about this for several months.
I finally was able to purchase it.
Overstock.com sells it for $109.99 US.
However, it goes out of stock quite often.
I purchased mine from getorganized via
ebates. I got 7% back.
My grand total minus discount plus sales tax was just over $117.
It shipped to me in five business days.
It was very well packaged. It arrived undamaged.
I was very excited to fill it with all of my baubles.
Unfortunately, my bangle collection could not be contained in this unit. I have alternative storage for them.

Over-the-Door Mirrored Jewelry Armoire Features:


36 hooks for necklaces

100 holes for earrings (holds 50 pairs)

12 compartments for watches, bracelets and more

91 ring slots

Interior mirror

Comes ready-to-hang with included hardware

Measures approx. 14"W x 48"L x 4" Deep

Made of wood, glass, plastic, wire and foam

Made in USA


There is a full length mirror on the exterior as well as a small mirror on the inside.

It only took me about 10 minutes to screw in the hooks to hang it on my door.
If you prefer to mount it on the wall it comes with a template, anchors and screws.











I had fun filling this. It took me more than an hour.

How are you currently storing your accessories?
















How does ebates work? ....Price comparisons
The link to ebates is simply for the referral.
(You will get $10...gift card & I will also get $5 credit)

http://www.ebates.com/rf.do?referrerid=MlligMjDC%2FOeTiq91TzIsQ%3D%3D

1.Once you have signed up,
2. then you type in the store you want in the right hand top search bar.
3. Any coupons for that store will pop up.
4. You simply click on the deal you want (e.g. 15% off, or free shipping or whatever)
5. Next ebates will redirect you to the site.
You can start shopping & you will get credit for your purchase.
6. If you connect to that site in a different window you will not get the credit through ebates.

e.g. of stores that sell the armoire...
csn stores (jewelry armoires direct)
get organized (shopgetorganized)
hsn
Walmart

(All of the stores I know of actually buy from csn stores, or some ship from csn stores).

7. After you have navigated to the store/coupon of your choice, you need to then go to the search field of that website & type in "over the door mirrored jewelry armoire".

I chose shopgetorganized b/c I did the math & 20% off (plus $14.98) total shipping & (8% tax) got me the armoire for like $117 & some change total.
With my credit, the armoire cost me $111.00
$129.98 Regular Price
$119.98 Sale Price
-   24.00  (20% discount)
-----------
$  95.98
$  14.98 shipping
---------
$117.62
      6.72 ebates credit (cash back to be paid August 15, 2011)
---------
$111.00

$That 20% off coupon expired. But they do have a 15% off coupon. Generally through ebates, the free shipping will not apply to the purchase of the armoire at get organized b/c it is a "W" or "D" item. W=weight, D=drop ship.
get organized ships the armoire from a warehouse closest to your geographic location.

If you shop the get organized store through ebates by clicking on the 15% coupon (expires 7/31/11),
the link will take the price down to $112.
You need to add $10.00 for shipping because of the weight. That takes it to $122. Your local tax needs to be applied as well. That will be your grand total. You will receive 7% credit ($7.84) to your ebates account in 2-3 days after your purchase. The armoire is backordered until 7/30/11 on getorganized.

I do believe you can still lock in the discounts/pricing etc if you "preorder" b4 the coupon expires.
You might want to call to confirm this. They only have the armoire in black on this site.

csn stores offer "free shipping" on the armoire, but the cost is $136.99 plus tax.
on their site, the colors offered are Black, Silver, White and Gold.
The return if purchased through ebates is 2.5% ($3.42)

Walmart also offers "free shipping" on it but the price is also $136.99 plus tax.
The return to your ebates account if purchased through their link is ($3.42)

hsn offers free shipping. But the cost is $149.99. However their color range is greater.
They have Silver, Leopard, Black & Cherry. They also offer the option to break up the payments 2x.
If you choose to purchase the armoire from hsn through ebates, you get 2% of your purchase price ($3) credited back to your ebates account in 2-3 days.

Overstock.com does not currently have any deals through ebates. Your shipping costs will be $2.99
Overstock does offer you free shipping & 5% back on your purchase if you are a part of club "O".
(It cost $19.95 to join)
The armoire is $109.99 in Black on the site. ($112.98 plus tax)
$125.99 in White. ($129.98 plus tax)
$129.99 in Silver. ($132.98 plus tax)

I believe the armoire is also available via acouple of  sellers on ebay
($129.95 plus tax  and $151.97 plus tax , available in Black, White, Silver, Leopard),
however you do not get any return for your purchase.
I hope this has been helpful.

Accessories Haul - Beauty Supply Store

I want to go back to buy more feather earrings. There are two colors I am missing.
I love unique wooden bracelets.
The gold and silver hoops are staples for my collection.

All items were $1.

Do you have a beauty supply store in your area? Do they sell jewelry?

Funky Peacock Belt - Torrid



I stumbled across this funky belt while window shopping at Torrid
I like their wide variety of plus sized accessories.

I found a coupon code for a $10 discount. This made up for having to pay the shipping cost. Shipping was FAST!
There is an ongoing special where you may purchase one belt and get a second for 50% off. I was unaware of this when I placed my order.
I love my belt.

Thread Earring Haul



I bought these from a local grocery store for $1 a pair!
I've found with the less expensive earrings, it would be a good idea to reinforce with glue. They have a tendancy to unravel.

Storage/Organization


I recently cleared out all of my drawers of my costume jewelry. This freed up space for more makeup organization! It cost me like $50 with the shipping. SO worth it.

Hopefully I can keep up the habit of replacing things where they belong so that I won't lose another piece of jewelry ever again.



Check Out The Video

on HSN, they suggested using this to store your makeup. They encouraged use right on the back of the bathroom door. What do you think about this?

What do you use for storing your costume jewelry?

PEACOCK


I LOVE Peacock Feathers. I recently acquired some of these beauties from my local Ashley Stewart. You can find some like them @ my friend Candiecc from YouTube's website.

I did this look for a contest on YouTube. I was wearing a smaller pair of peacock feather earrings. I enjoyed making the video. I prefer to just get to business with the makeup, but she wanted us to chat it up. LOL
