The Look for Less: J.Crew Factory Bubble Necklace

Thanks to an alert reader, I discovered J.Crew offers a version of their famous bubble necklace at their outlet store locations as well as online at factory.jcrew.com. This "Factory Resin Droplet Necklace" comes in tangerine, red, cobalt or neon pink for $61.50 (down from $88). It measure 23 3/4", so it's pretty big.



Now, Charlotte Russe has a "mini" bubble necklace option for $12.99 in tangerine, aqua or black. NOTE: This necklace only measures 14" so it's significantly smaller. But both are cute! Click either image for details.



The Look for Less: MICHAEL Michael Kors Piped Trench

This classic MICHAEL Michael Kors piped trench coat is $158 at Nordstrom.com, which is a steal when you consider how much you'll wear it.



Looking to pay a little less? Check out this Merona piped trench coat, just $49.99 at Target.com. I tried this coat on in person and thought the quality was really good for the price. If I didn't already own a khaki trench coat, I would have scooped it up.
