Jennifer Zeuner Mini Heart Pendant

Jennifer Zeuner is known for her gorgeous swirly monogram pendant that has been seen on  celebs like Lauren Conrad and Taylor Swift.  Her jewelry line consists of adorable and dainty yellow, white and rose gold pieces.  I own mainly white gold jewelry (and only a handful too) and thought I'd finally take the plunge and order a tiny rose gold pendant by her!  It is the mini heart pendant with a tiny little ruby encrusted onto the heart.  I really wanted the monogram one like Lauren's but I wanted it in 14k gold which is too steep for me right now, so this will have to do.  If you're looking to order from her website, use code "butterfly" for 15% off your order!

ETA: 9/7/11: So I took this pendant out a couple of weeks ago to wear to the bridal shower and I found that it had completely tarnished! I reached out to Jennifer Zeuner and they were willing to refund me when they recieve it back.  I am disappointed that it turned dark but I'm satisfied they were willing to work with the customer if any issue arose.

Does 14k rose gold tarnish? Hm..

YSL Arty Ring in Rose

This ring is currently all the rage among fashionistas and bloggers! The YSL Arty Ring retails for $250, a price that cannot justify right now, but is high on my wishlist.  I use to be a white gold jewelry kind of girl but now I have a sudden urge to own a few gold pieces.  The most appealing thing is that it looks like something from the past.. vintage-inspired is so in!  I also love pink and gold together. This ring is so feminine and glamorous and will add a beautiful touch to an outfit - may it be a dress or jeggings and a tee.

ETA: So I did buy the ring through Saks.com with the friends and family discount (15% only) but I ended up returning it because the size I chose didn't fit any of my fingers.  It is gorgeous in real life with a decent amount of weight and the quality was excellent.  I was able to take some photos before sending it back to Saks.

My First Pucci

Sadly I'm on a shopping ban so I'll take whatever deals I can find.  Today I just received my $2 Outnet item from their Birthday Sale! I am usually a Balenciaga bag girl, but I figured I could use this as my basher bag.  It's surprisingly roomy like the Gucci Horsebit hobo bag and sits comfortably on my shoulder with the single shoulder strap. It has the adorable signature Emilio Pucci print on the interior and is made of leather.  There are no exterior pockets which is a bummer since that is where I usually keep my cell phone, but they've solved that by putting a cell phone pocket on the inside!  There is also an interior zip compartment.  The color is a light gray with gun metal hardware. Modeling pictures to come soon.  The best part? Seeing only a $2 charge on my credit card!
