Updated Everything!

Good Evening Everyone!

I updated all of the galleries on the site, my charm count, and the Full Juicy Couture Charm List!! Also, check out “Shop for Charms“, I updated the link list.

Drumroll Please……

My current charm count is: 131! I am quite proud of my count, I have a lot of great charms and I can’t wait to watch it grow.

Juicy Couture Charm List Count: 768. I added charms I wasn’t sure were real and added the 2012 charms.  I wonder how many more charms I can find and add to the list. It keeps growing and growing!

Coming Soon: There has been a request to make a YouTube Video of my collection! I will certainly do so! Also coming, a detailed article on “How to Spot Fake Charms”. I will add more comparison pictures of fake to real charms that are surfing the web.

Palm Beach Poolside Bracelet

I am sure most of you know about the new Palm Beach Poolside Bracelet.  This charm is silver tone, neon color accents, and has the charms attached to the charm.  I luckily saw this charm when I was at the Juicy Couture Store as the managers were pulling new merchandise out for the sales floor.  My thoughts? This is definitely a fun bracelet for the summer time.  Neon is “in” right now and this would be a great addition to your summer clothes collection.  I love that it has the charms attached.  However, there are tons of charms on this bracelet which makes the bracelet busy and heavy.  If I had this bracelet, would I wear it everyday? No, I wouldn’t. This would be an add to my collection when the bracelet goes on sale, after I have nothing else to purchase.  It’s a great bracelet for when you want to “funk” up your outfit.  What do you all think?

New Charms Galore

Check it out on shopbellabeach.com and juicycouture.com.  We have the Ballon, Surfboard, Gem Fish, Beach Bag, Sandal, Hawaiian Flower, Watermelon, and Parrot. So, my thoughts. I like the new summer charms! The Beach Bag is cute! The Fish is a duplicate from an Angel Fish released twice already, except this one is neon.  For the balloon, this charm is already in stores.  My opinion is it looks very cheap.  I multi-colored crystals on the Hawaiian Flower looks great with the embelished leaf.  Overall, good charms to pick from.

 

Krissy has a Brand New Bag!!

Behold. The Hot Pink Juicy Couture Shopping Bag. Which means, I’ve been shopping! As soon as Juicy Couture had their 30% off Full Priced Jewelry Sale, I knew it was time to purchase some charms.  I haven’t been to the Juicy Couture Store since before Christmas.  It’s not a good idea to place me in stores where I am tempted to buy frivolous merchandise.  So I do my best to avoid. But then when I do, I overspend, well, anyways. It felt like old times. I come in, the assistant managers say my name and rush to give me a hug, talk about what’s new, then they urge me to shop around.  I literally walked the semi-small store for while admiring the clothes and thought, “I like being around nice things. :-D ” Big surprise!  Everything Juicy Couture sells looks better in person.  I don’t know what’s going on on their website.  The clothes are much cuter. And the handbags look different than pictured.  You can actually see how big their sunglasses fit.

I checked out the mini-charms. Not so bad after all! I get the concept, make your own charm. Yea I get it. But, I wouldn’t mind it so much if they still released the regular sized charms more often.

Look what I have!!

I purchased the Daydreamer Purse, the Bike, the Tennis Ball, and a new Flower. Check it out!

(I should watermark these photos but oh well) The Hawaiian Flower is so cute! It’s a great add to your Spring Charms.  I am very pleased with my purchases. I also got a tri-bangle bracelet.

Look there’s more!! Okay, not yet. Coming Soon, I will add what else I got today in the mail.  You all will love what else I added to my collection. The Charm Fairies are sending their blessings to me! Okay that was corny!

Happy Charm Shopping!

Sale

JuicyCouture.com has 30% on all full-priced charms this weekend. Plus 30% off all handbags too.  I think I’m going to break down today, go to the mall, and scoop up all of the charms I want.  Gotta take advantage!

How I Currently Wear my Charms

This past Christmas, I treated myself to the Juicy Couture Winter Charm bracelet.  I already have two bracelets that have charms attached and after seeing this charm in the Juicy Couture Las Vegas Store, I had to have it.

I had to get this bracelet because it’s so dainty.  I wear it with small colorful bangles and a pearl bracelet.  I probably wear this charm almost everyday.

I add a charm on the bracelet so I can still wear my charms.  Usually one charm but sometimes two.  I love this bracelet because I do a lot of running around now that I own a baking business.  I would be pissed if I messed up my charm due to my normal routine. I already have a rhinestone missing out of my new 2011 Pave Owl Charm (which is completely cute!).  Anywho, that’s an update on how I wear my charms now!

How to Spot a Fake Charm

Hello Everyone!! Instead of writing a new article on how to spot a fake charm, I decided to elaborate on the current article I already have posted.  I added more pictures and pointed out the differences between a fake charm and a real charm.  Keep in mind, I do a lot of comparisons to the original stock photo to decide if a charm is real or fake.  Read more on “How to Spot a Fake Charm.” Enjoy!
