What's in Style Right Now? Vintage! Part 2

Continuing with the article I saw yesterday about great jewelry buys for under $100, I wanted to look at item number 2. 


It's for sale for $26.96.

I betcha I can find some Vintage Jewelry that has the same style!


VezaVe has this great 1950s Necklace


Shopon Sherman has this great Coro Lucite Set!  (Look! Earrings too!)


Creativegatherings has this one, with fantastic lemon glass and rhinestones!

All these previous necklaces were found on Etsy in less than 5 minutes.

Goes to show, you can find great vintage jewelry that's low on cost and high on style!

More to come!

What's in Style right now? Vintage!

I was reading the news this morning and found an article entitled "Bright baubles: Get statement jewelry for under $100" on msnbc.com. Looking at the image on that page, I saw vintage pieces, even though those pieces were new! 

Lets do a comparison.  Here's a screenshot from that webpage:



Number 1:  The BaubleBar Drop Earrings, priced at $94

I found earrings on Etsy that had a similar style for much less.

Like these from Masterymixedmedia

or these by PritiStar

or these by JanasTreasures


We'll keep visiting these suggestions over the next few blog posts.  In the meantime, don't pay $94 for a pair of earrings when you can pay less for jewelry that's got much more style, and history!
