Splurge vs Steal - Crystal butterfly

Posted by Sophie on April 27, 2008

I love butterflies.  I get so excited every time I see them…although I can’t touch them.  Haha.  Butterflies are supposed to bring good luck.  Take a look at these sparkly crystal butterflies.  Aren’t they so pretty?  I saw Sorelle’s crystal butterflies on HSN.com on and they reminded me of Swarovski’s butterflies.  And I thought, why get only one butterfly when you can get a set four at a lower price?

You can get Sorelle Set of 4 Handcrafted Crystal Butterflies for $49.95 while Swarovski’s butterfly, Light Amethyst is $110 just for one.  Sorelle’s are bigger in size and the price is smaller.  These crytal butterflies would make a great gift for mother’s day as well.

Fab Spring Summer Rings

Posted by Sophie on April 26, 2008

Looking for the perfect spring/summer jewelry at a very low price?  Or looking for a great mother’s gift on a budget?  To my surprise, these beatiful rings only cost $24.99 each!  The pearl is surrounded by sparkly colorful stones like a blooming flower!  My favorite is the blue topaz, it reminds me of a blue sky or a crystal clear blue ocean.  What a special gift this would be for mother’s day without breaking the bank.

Must Have - Teenie Weenie MP3 Player

new cute and small iPod shuffle for girls 

I have to say that bigger doesn’t always mean better.  I was in the mall the other day and took a few minutes to stop in the Apple store.  I noticed that the new iPod Shuffle is soooooo cute and will hold a ton of songs.  This thing is so adorable and so teenie weenie that you can’t help but want one.  Check out the Apple iPod shuffle 1 GB Purple (2nd Generation) or the Apple iPod shuffle 1 GB Blue (2nd Generation) & right now you can scoop one up for about $33 - $48 dollars depending upon where you get it.

Great for your workout days, a relaxing Barnes & Noble trip or a long day on campus.  This baby will randomly play your songs but who cares when you can put all your favorites on one crazy small, super cute iPod shuffle.  The pink and blue are my favorites but it also comes in many other colors as well including purple.
