Prep for Less: Statement Jewelry

Welcome back to my series Prep for Less, if you haven't seen my other posts in the series make sure to check them out! I know statement jewelry can be hella expensive, so my latest Prep for Less post is all about getting statement jewelry for cheaper! Statement jewelry is the perfect finishing touch to any outfit, it ties everything together and can be the perfect added touch. Statement jewelry can be rather expensive though for pieces that you may not wear everyday or even less than once a week. Since statement jewelry can be extremely bold, colorful, and over the top, therefore, I don't think you need to invest since if it isn't something you'll wear that often. Statement jewelry trends are always changing so there's no reason to spend a ton; of course if you are spending less, the quality won't be as nice but I think that's okay since the pieces aren't meant to be worn all the time. Here's some places I like to look for statement jewelry & some pieces that you can buy now (click the picture for links to shop):


FOREVER 21:
Forever 21 is my go to for statement earrings and necklaces. You can get statement earrings for under $10 and necklaces for under $20. Although jewels do tend to fall out, it's nothing a little glue can't fix. Luckily, their earrings don't bother my ears, but be careful if you do have sensitive ears.

CHARLOTTE RUSSE:
I honestly never really shop at Charlotte Russe, but while looking for necklaces for this post, I found a ton of great and inexpensive options! I actually recently stopped in after making this post and found 3 I loved & bought! Here's some of my favorites:


J. Crew Factory:
Although J. Crew factory jewelry can be expensive you can find it on sale and save some money. Although I don't own any, I assume the quality is much better than places such as Forever 21. I love all their jewelry but just don't have a store close. They also make great basic statement necklaces that can be added to tons of different outfits (examples at the end) Here's some of my favorites:

WALMART:
This isn't the most glamorous place what so ever, but surprisingly I've been able to find really cute necklaces for super, super cheap. Make sure to check in stores to see all the necklaces (website doesn't give them justice). I got a 3 pack of necklaces for only $7 that can easily be worn together or by themselves:

OLD NAVY:
Recently, I've been finding adorable jewelry here and it's almost always under $10. It's not offered online so make sure to check in your local store. 



Thanks for reading!
