Lazy Sunday Afternoon: Jewellery Making

I spent the afternoon making bracelets today. I was in the process of cleaning my bedroom when I decided to make some bracelets. This time of year I like wearing more accessories.

I made 4 bracelets and I finished a necklace that I cannot remember starting. They were quite easy to make. I used stretchy jewellery cord that I purchased from the dollar store.

Yesterday I purchased these rings for a great price.  Have fun this summer with jewellery.

What Time Is It?

Great accessories don't have to cost a lot of money. I purchased these watches at Ardene and the best part was the price - 2 for $15.00. The blue one caught my eye first. I have been looking for a cool watch in a vibrant colour.

JALDA

I love to find out about different brands of handbags and accessories. I seem to always purchase the same brands over and over.

The brand JALDA sells handbags, utility bags, clutches and accessories. They are made of Italian leather. The bags are available at Holt Renfrew in Toronto. Now I have an excuse to go to Holt Renfrew.  I love the smell of leather bags.

They currently have a great sale on clutches and handbags at 55% to 85% off the retail price. The link for the sale is http://jaldastyle.com/sale/.

Winners Spring Event

I do most of my shopping at the store Winners. There are times when I do not have the time or patience to go to the mall to wander from store to store. What I love about Winners is that it is one stop shopping. You can find footwear, accessories, clothing, bed and bath products, home decor and so much more in one spot. Of course my first stop is the incredible handbag section. However, not each store is the same. Some locations will have better items, so you have to shop around. In my opinion the best location is at College Park in downtown Toronto. Some people say that they do not like hunting for stuff. It is worth it because you find great items at amazing prices.

When I have time and I go to Winners on a Saturday afternoon I can do a bit of damage to my bank account. There is a Winners near my office, so I will wander in on my lunch. Most of the women in the area have the same idea. Now that the weather is getting better, it will be a zoo.

Forever 21

Yesterday I went to the store Forever 21 for the first time. The store I went to is located at the intersection of Yonge and Dundas in Toronto. I think that you have to be under 21 to shop in the store. I spotted someone who looked older than 21 and she stuck out like a sore thumb. I must have really looked out of place. I was looking for a handbag to take to the gym. I carry a lot of stuff in my gym bag so I have to carry a second bag. I am picky about the bag that I take to the gym because of all of the germs in the changing room. This bag can really hold a lot. The bag was $27.80 CAD. The ring was also a great price at $4.80 CAD.
