Hello there my
lovely readers!
I hope your
weeks gotten off to a good start! Truly did not want to return to
work after a blissful weekend spent with family on Saturday for Eid,
followed by a divine day perusing my favourite place on Earth, Brighton! I
got to meet up with the lovely Jayne whilst there also which was the cherry
on top of an ace weekend :)
Just one of the
many wonderful things I love about the world of Twitter (come find me
@Aysh_tmb) is it often brings you into contact with many incredibly
talented independent jewellery businesses that I wouldn't know
existed otherwise.
I've already
become addicted to a number of boutiques which produce some
stunning pieces. One that I have a soft spot for in particular is Cheap Frills, which is run by the lovely Georgie, who actually resides in
Brighton the lucky thing, not jelly at all, & has such a
delightful selection of pretty vintage bling. I thought I'd share
with you beauts a few bits & bobs I've picked up from this store
which has become a firm fav of mine...
One of the first
items I ever purchased after having a browse through all the delightful
wares on offer was this adorable golden bee & amber stone
necklace...isn't it so puuuurdy?
First things
first though I absolutely adored how the necklace came packaged when
it arrived. Each piece is parceled inside a cute paper bag &
sealed with wax & a Cheap Frills stamp embossment which I thought
to be so quaint & its little touches like this that really endear me to a product!
The necklace
itself is exceptionally pretty with the delicate gold chain, intricately detailed solid bee pendant & the pretty amber heart stone to complete the whole
piece. Now in reality bees actually scare the beejesus (pun totally
intended...sorry) out of me. However in jewellery form...no such
problems. Weird.
Another couple
of pieces I couldn't resist hauling a little later on were these super cute silver
arrow earrings & swallows nest necklace which came with it. These pretty items of bling have all gotten a lot of usage!
Lovely right? I
definitely urge you to check out Cheap Frills if you're looking for
pretty cameo jewellery & accessories. I already have my eye on
the Oxblood Vintage Cocktail Ring! Unfortunately I don't think the
Bee & Amber necklace is available any more (I did get it a while
back!) however Georgie is forever introducing new equally stunning
pieces & FYI there's always some fab bling around Halloween time
so defo worth keeping an eye out!
Thanks as always
for reading lovelies! Till next time.
Lotsa love to
ya!
