Look for Less: Rhinestone Studded Wrap Watches

La Mer wrap watches caught my eye in a magazine a while back- watches with long, embellished leather bands that that wrap around your wrist a few times. I never liked those chunky gold men's watches that girls started wearing, so I liked that La Mer kept their watches feminine, with small faces, but added a unique twist (literally). The only thing was that they were over $100 a pop on Karmaloop. Why spend that much money on one thing when I could get a bunch of cute bangles, bracelets, and cuffs instead? But then, everytime I went on Karmaloop, I kind of regretted not having the money to get one.

Now, I'm glad that I didn't buy a La Mer because I found these gorgeous wrap watches at 15dollarstore.com for only $15 each:

Obsessed: Nicole Lee Boston Bags

Want a handbag that will get you noticed? Check out Nicole Lee‘s super-embellished creations. She makes cute totes, wallets, and more, but I die for her Boston bags, little duffel-type barrel satchels that are like a party in pleather (but in a classic “LV Speedy” shape). Some of her designs are pretty crazy but sometimes a girl needs a little ostentation in her life =) 

 

My favorites:

Nicole Lee’s bags can be hard to find in stores (I’ve only seen them in Marshall’s) but, since they’re all a bargain at under $70, it’s worth doing a quick Google search. I found a lot of them at b4bags.com, bagmadness.com, mypursehub.com, and buckle.com. You can also check her official website for new collections and updates.

What do you think of Nicole Lee's bags?
