Does anyone remember watching "The Look for Less" with Elisabeth Hasselbeck on the Style network back in the day?? It was this show where they would pick pricey runway outfits and then throw 2 people in a ghetto mall and make them find the same outfit for like $60 in under an hour. I wanted to be on that show sooo bad. I think I just want to be on any show. Maybe I just want to be famous. Nah.
Anyways, I have a few necklaces I have recently acquired but then seen in stores or online for waaaaaay more money and I wanted to share.
First up, we have the J. Crew necklace I ordered a long time ago from China via eBay. I finally received it in the mail the other day as a nice little surprise! This is what it looks like:
I am pretty happy with this purchase. Again, it was $20, including shipping and the J. Crew one goes for $150! Done and done.
Next up, we have another J. Crew look-a-like that I found at Target for $7! They have multiple colors but I bought the off-white because I wanted it to match certain things. Please excuse the pictures... blame it on the infused orange juice.

See the difference? I don't. Go to Target. Easy.
This last one is kind of the opposite deal. One of my best friends bought me this awesome necklace for my birthday and I am obsessed with it. It is the real thing. Not sure how much it costs (because it would be tacky to look it up) but it is the legit House of Harlow (by Nicole Richie) necklace. I was just randomly searching on Ebay for necklaces and found this necklace for extremely cheap (about $10-15). Mine is real leather and I can assure you the knockoff is plastic but otherwise it almost looks identical. I am merely telling you this to explain how eBay works. It's like Amazon on steroids.
Mine. Awesomeness. |

But if you really want to me cool like me and Kim Kardashain, buy the real one.
