Accessory Steal of the Week: Capwell Panther Ring


Capwell and Co. Lion Ring

In this weekly column, I’m bringing you my favorite budget-friendly accessory that’s available online or in-stores. This week, we’re ready to roar.

Animal motifs are everywhere this season, from sweaters and blouses to coats and pants. One very easy (and affordable!) way to bring the trend into your wardrobe is with an animal head ring.

I fell in love with Capwell’s panther ring ($24). The hammered metal gives the gold plating depth. And the black glass eyes add an extra luxe element. It’s the perfect way to make a statement for the holidays.

Accessory Steal of the Week: Forever 21 Rose Pendant

Forever 21 gold pendant necklace

In this weekly column, I’m bringing you my favorite budget-friendly accessory that’s available online or in-stores. This week, we’re talking gold jewelry.

There are many tricks to buying inexpensive gold jewelry that looks pricier. One is going for more vintage-looking styles. Whenever I’m shopping at Forever 21, I immediately pass the shiny necklaces. Instead I focus on pieces that are either matte or have etched details.

Accessory Steal of the Week: Express Mixed Print Scarf

Express scarf

In this weekly column, I’m bringing you my favorite budget-friendly accessory that’s available online or in-stores. This week, it’s all about mixing prints.

Mixed prints is one trend that isn’t going anywhere anytime soon. There are a lot of ways to combine patterns. One is by pairing different separates in one outfit. But it’s a whole lot easier when the prints are already mixed for you!

Accessory Steal of the Week: Forever 21 Emerald Bag




In this new weekly column by the fabulous Sydne Summer of Sydne Style, we'll be bringing you an amazing bauble, shoe or bag that just looks expensive! —BB

I was so excited when the Budget Babe asked me to write a weekly column on affordable accessories. Not only have I been a long time fan of this site, but BB and I are friends in real life, too (and yes, she’s even more awesome in person!).

Every week, I’m going to introduce you to my favorite budget-friendly accessory that’s currently available online or in stores. Since emerald is the hottest color of the year, I figured I’d kick off the series with this gorgeous Forever 21 handbag.
