life is too short to wear boring jewellery.

Are any of you addicted to jewellery? Most of the time, I don't think I am....but then I stop and realize just how many accessories I have kicking around! Most of it is inexpensive but cute. I like stores like Forever 21, H&M, Clarie's, Ardene's and stuff like that. It's almost nice to have cheaper pieces because it gives you a little more variety. That way, whatever outfit I put together, I have options!

When I went to Las Vegas, I did a fair bit of shopping. Along the way, I managed to pick up a few notable accessories as well. In fact, I didn't even notice how many new accessories I was bringing home with me until I started to pack them all up! At least I love them, right? To end my Las Vegas haul, I thought I would show you the accessories that have been added to my collection.

To start with, I managed to score seriously amazing deals on a couple of Betsey Johnson bags. One is a messenger bag with skulls all over it (amazing) and the other is a makeup bag with kittens. They were simply too adorable to pass up. 

Does anyone else love Hot Topic as much as I do? I confess: I have a weakness for novelty items. So, Hot Topic has always been a place where I could drop a lot of cash if I am not careful. When we stopped by the store in Vegas, I was good! However, when I saw this Mean Girls necklace and The Little Mermaid necklace....I had to. 

This next batch is from Charlotte Russe. We don't have this store in Canada, but I wish we did! They had a lot of cute clothes and accessories for great prices. Score!

Last up? A few pieces that I can't quite remember their origins. (A sign of too much shopping perhaps?) At any rate, I love them! The spiked pair of hoop earrings are a serious favourite. They are very heavy - and very sharp - but they look fantastic. Then there is the edgy statement necklace. Definitely a piece to be noticed....

So, those were the accessories that I picked up during my trip to Vegas. And there ends my Las Vegas haul....finally! I am definitely cut off from shopping for quite some time. I am ready to be responsible with my money. Or at least try to be. 

Which piece is your favourite? When is the last time you bought new accessories?
