Splurge vs. Save

You know we love anything "Chain link" here at C&C. Our obsession started with the Angela Caputi bracelets, and now it has moved to necklaces. We love the Angela Caputi necklace (post here), and I have been coveting a larger version from Diana Broussard for months now. Remember when I first saw it on RHWNYC, and a reader helped me track it down (post here). 

Unfortunately, the $250+ price tag made the Diana Broussard version unrealistic. The price seems a bit ridiculous for resin. When I saw this photo of blogger Beth of Seersucker and Saddles, I was hopeful she had found an equally as large but less expensive version. I mean...she's wearing two of them. That must make them affordable, right?

Right! You can get these amazing acrylic necklaces from Ily Couture in 5 colors, including the white for only $34. It's almost too good to be true! 

With a price that good, why not buy two or three or all five? I placed an order last week when they were offering %40 off! 

What I Wore

Earlier this week I shared a San Francisco recap, but most of the photos were of the city and the food I consumed while walking all over it! So, I thought I would share two of my outfits from trip. This also serves as a good reminder that Serena Imports is offering a %15 discount to C&C readers until the end of the month (details here). In these photos I am wearing my Angela Caputi necklace and bracelets. Doesn't it make you want them?
