TBF SHOPS: Black and Gold Chain Necklace





How perfect is this necklace? 

For someone who has a larger chest, it's important to avoid long necklaces that end up hiding in my cleavage. This necklace, that is not only shorter and perfectly wraps around my neck, beautifully shows off my collar bones and has several strands that make it super chunky, leaving my neck to appear smaller than it actually is. 

I also adore that this isn't another gold chain necklace which, honestly, can make people look like Mr. T at times. The black chains intertwined add a chicness to the necklace making it perfect to add to a plain white T-shirt or a day/office dress. 

The best part (something you can always expect for all my purchases) is that this was on sale at the clearance section and hardly cost a thing. Sales like this one should be illegal. 

Not revealing the store's name,

TBF SHOPS: Gold CASIO Watch (FINALLY!)

Images taken from StyleScrapbook.com



I first saw this exact watch in a VIVI Japanese Magazine many many years ago and set myself on a search. It didn't become serious until I saw Andy Torres from Style Scrapbook wearing it, then I became fixated and bought it in black, pink and taupe because gold was never available. 

I made a trip to American Apparel one day and saw a silver version and was tempted to buy it as it was THE closest thing to the gold one being made of metal at least, but as soon as I turned around and saw the watch display, there she was...

I didn't know how much it cost but I couldn't turn my back on this orphan. It turns out that these are no longer being made and that only a few are being sold around the world, which makes it that much more special.

Seriously hoping the salesman wasn't BS'ing me!!!

TBF SHOPS: Wishlist - Cross necklaces from Forever 21

I can't imagine any other way to accessorize my neck or ears than with a cross. Other than a heart, it's one of my favorite symbols.

I'm so thankful that Forever 21 was able to design and sell simple designs as I'm not a big fan of the extravagantly detailed ones with diamonds and curvy shapes etc. I'm also happy to see that they come in different elements like gold, silver, wood and turquoise to top off different outfits. I am still waiting for the bigger skinny cross like the one that Style Scrapbook has but I've got faith that I'll find it ;)
