Posted on August 10, 2012 by Johnnalynn Lynch in Fashion Tips, Feature Friday, Home, Shopping, Trends No Comments

Hey Afaconados!

As you should know by now, not only do I LOVE fashion, but I’m crazy about a great bargain! That’s why I’m SO excited about today’s feature, Buy A Boutique.

Buy A Boutique is an innovative concept that allows users to purchase fabulous designer jewelry in sets (also called “mini boutiques”) at amazing discounted prices. A set, or “mini boutique” is simply a collection of matching pieces, so you can save time by having pieces available to you that compliment each other AND you can save money because buying a set is significantly cheaper than buying individual pieces. How cool is that?!

What makes today’s feature EXTRA special is that I have a little incentive for all of you who may want to purchase some lovely trinkets from Buy A Boutique. The owner has given me a unique coupon code that will get you 10% off of your purchase. Please use FACON20 when making your purchases to receive the discount.

As always, I’ve taken the liberty of providing some selections to show what they have to offer. Here they are:

Enchanting Emerald Set: $55 for the set on www.buyaboutique.com

Dark Princess Set: $41 for the set on www.buyaboutique.com

Exquisite Bronze & Silver Bangle Set: $65 for the set on www.buyaboutique.com

Polished Gold Bangle: $34 at www.buyaboutique.com

Tribal Brights Necklace: $82 at www.buyaboutique.com

The Eclectic Sophisticate Olive: $85 at www.buyaboutique.com

Gorgeous jewelry at killer prices! If you love beautiful jewelry as much as I do then check out Buy A Boutique at http://www.buyaboutique.com and don’t forget to use the FACON20 10% Discount Code. Happy Shopping!

Until next time!

It’s even prettier in person! Please note that the blue in the picture seems a little brighter than the actual item. I guarantee that the item is authentic, however. Anywhoo…I’m keeping this first giveaway VERY simple…almost too simple seeing as this is a pretty expensive piece of jewelry…call me crazy I guess

Feature Friday: Bauble Bar

Posted on June 15, 2012 by Johnnalynn Lynch in Feature Friday, Home, Shopping 1 Comment

Hey Afaconados!

My favorite day of the week is here…Feature Friday! Today’s feature is dedicated to Bauble Bar. I haven’t spent much time talking about jewelry on this blog so I wanted to make sure that when I did do one, it was for a site that I really like.

Bauble Bar, co-founded by Amy Jain and Daniella Yacobovsky, is a phenomenal website for costume jewelry. I love to hear about success stories that involve friends, and this duo used to be co-workers in the Finance Industry in the Big Apple. During their many lunch/shopping breaks they would talk about how they didn’t spend enough time purchasing jewelry the way they did with clothes and shoes. They concluded that the reason for that was because there wasn’t a good selection of high quality, yet affordable jewelry in the marketplace. Their resolution? The birth of Bauble Bar.

This online jewelry destination doesn’t just have a crafty name, it offers an excellent selection of beautiful, high quality costume jewelry that won’t break the bank. Prices start as low as $22 and go to about $320 so there’s something for everyone. See some of my favorites below:
