Juicy Couture Faceted Heart necklace ($48)

I actually got this on sale to give to my other friend for her birthday, 5 months more to go!

Victoria Townsend Sterling Silver necklace ($90)
Available here. The gem amethyst is gorgeous (this pic does not do justice to the color)

I also love the teardrop design :) I've been wearing this whenever I wear silver jewelry

Guess bracelet ($25)

This was on clearance at Macy's and I really like these type of bands, currently on the lookout for a purse with this type of handle hehe :)

Jewelmint Setting Sun necklace

I've been pretty much wearing this with any outfit that I can pair it with ^^

If Jewelmint brings this back again, I highly recommend checking it out. I've been getting a lot of compliments from people saying they like the necklace.

Jewelmint Starlet Set

Earrings are very simple, the backing is a little hard to take off considering how thin the earrings are.

Jewelmint Description:

Go gaga for this season's hot galaxy trend with this stellar trio. Our silver-plated necklace, measuring 19" with a 1 1/2" extender, features eight scattered star charms. This cosmic set gets an extra boost of star power with a matching ring and a 3" thread-through earrings. Wear them together ori ndividually for a spot of space age style.

I don't really under stand why Jewelmint do silver-plated products, it's not like Sterling Silver is that expensive o.O Gold plated I understand, but for $30... Hm.

This is one of the cheaper Jewelmint sets I've seen, I feel like you can easily find this at Claire's for like $6, although it's a 3-piece set. I am underwhelmed by the pieces I've purchased lately, bleh.

If you're still interested though, you can purchase it here after you register here

First time purchasers can usually use a code for 50% off or more, check Retail Me Not for recent codes.

My Jewelmint Ornamint came in

Desert Rose necklace

Lady Noir rings

I am underwhelmed by this purchase, although I do like the fact that it's supposed to be a surprise

I would've like the aqua bomb ring, or something that I would've actually chosen to purchase

I can see myself wearing the brown-jewel ring some time, but the green is a little "bright" for me, esp with the jewel being so big.

I think the necklace is neat, but impractical... What could I actually wear this with? The model on the website was wearing a black top with this tied like a rope, I think I prefer wearing it like this.

A lot of coupon codes, they're all buy one get % off though which is a totally turn off for me -_-

For some reason they only included the info card for the rings, nothing about the necklace

I just read my email carefully and apparently you had to order before November 30th, sorry everyone who missed my tweets!

Jewelmint Hayden Necklace

How it looks when it came in

Below: Picture from Jewelmint website

In person, this is much cheaper-looking than I would've thought.

The pendant is also kind of heavy, which wouldn't bother me if the pendant actually looked nice.

A rare picture of my whole face, as you can tell I have sooo many bumps and acne and whatever. *le sigh*

Jewelmint Here to Eternity Set

Gold-plated and rose gold-plated

For reference of length, this is at full length with the 3" extender chain. I am wearing it with a Costco Kirkland white cami that comes with 2 in a pack.

This is at the original length without the 3" extender chain

The earrings, they might not look that small up close but they're pretty small, I barely see them from afar (and by afar I mean like maybe 2 meters away from my closet mirror)

This was my top match for the month of August, and I have to say, although I don't like gold, I love this three-tiered design. This necklace is a little bit shorter at 16 1/2" (the other necklaces I own are 18") but at least there's an extender. The three tiers consist of (according to the Jewelmint description) a double weaver's knot, a Love charm, and a pave crystal bar.

Now all Jewelmint needs is an option to choose between silver and gold, since I much prefer silver or white gold.

If you are not familiar with Jewelmint, it is basically a jewelry monthly subscription service that tries to match their unique designs to your tastes as you choose and take away jewelry from your "showroom" on their website. They come out with new designs every month, so if you're into jewelry you probably won't get bored. Although they do occasionally have tacky pieces with crazy colors and designs, there are ones that're decent and classy. Nearly all their gold jewelry is gold-plated, and although the quality is not amazing, but it's pretty good considering the unique designs... I'd try to catch the two or three for one deals though.

Prices are $29.99 for each piece, but they sometimes have sets that contain two to three pieces in a box. 

As of right now, they almost ALWAYS have coupon codes for first time purchases, check out the newest coupon codes here on Retailmenot, which is a great site for coupons on any website.

After your first purchase, you are "subscribed" but not obligated to pay every month, if you like anything one month you can skip it, but after skipping you can still buy jewelry. If you forget to skip a month after first five days of a month, you will be charged $29.99 for a credit.

I currently own 5 pieces of Jewelmint jewelry, including this one. See my other pieces from Jewelmint here.

One problem I do have with Jewelmint is they sell out a lot, so if you see a piece that you really like in stock it's a good idea to buy it... You can return pieces but you have to pay shipping, I haven't returned anything yet 'cos I just realized you can do returns after searching for it for this blogpost o.o lol

But they bring back popular pieces, luckily (not so lucky for ppl who want to unique)

For reference, this blogpost isn't sponsored by anybody, this is my honest opinion about the site and their jewelry.

What do you think?

Do you like this design? Or do you think that pairing two jewel tones together is tacky?

Jewelmint Daphne Pendant

Daphne Pendant ($29.99)
Find it here

I notice the necklaces have a good weight to the chain, which I guess helps it fall apart slower

I love how the necklaces I got have a 3" extender chain, so you can adjust it according to your outfit.

Is it worth $29.99? Hmm... If I was into gold, maybe. Also, with these kind of pendants that's attached to two links of the chain rather than a sliding pendant on a chain, the necklace easily looks uneven on the neck

My First Jewelmint Purchase (Casati necklace, Monte Carlo bracelet)

Comes in semi-sturdy boxes with a suede material with a sponge backing to hold the necklaces in.

Casati Necklace ($29.99 including the bracelet)
The set I purchased is sold out now, but here's a link to the necklace by itself here
I think they'll probably bring it back since it's so popular
The chain has more weight to it than I expected, but it's not too surprising since the links are very sturdy.

The bracelet came in a suede pouch

Monte Carlo Bracelet (part of the set, out of the four summer sets they have)

FYI if you have thinner wrists, this will be a really loose fit on you. I have moderately sized wrists and it's still pretty loose.

The pieces I purchased are gold-plated. I'm not huge on the color gold; I much prefer silver, but this necklace looked really nice with the Daphne Pendant from Jewelmint that I figured might as well.
Jewelmint has been popular on Youtube lately, and if you're planning to order, be sure to check Retail Me Not for a coupon code off your first purchase. I don't know if they have any codes for purchases after the first though.

If you live on the west coast, your order will come much quicker than the 5-7 business days they said. Mine was supposed to come on May 27 but it came on May 23rd. :)

Also... Is there an picture upload limit to blogspot? I wanted to put the Daphne Pendant in the same blogpost but it wouldn't load. Oh well
