32.4 and THPShop Jewellery Review

31 July 2015

When it comes to jewellery with me, I am all about staple pieces. I love to get good quality jewellery that I can wear again and again, but that are also simple and dainty and work with most outfits. So that's pretty much my approach whenever I buy new pieces for my collection. I decided to try out two new jewellery online stores that I had not tried before and see how they went.
Spoiler alert, one was great and one was not so great.

The Single Bey Earrings - THPSHOP

I really liked the style of these earrings. Tiny little honeycombs. They were silver which is my jewellery colour of choice, and the store is by a blogger "The Haute Pursuit". All of their jewellery is lovely and dainty and after following their store on instagram for months I decided to make the leap.

The earrings are $30, but that is in USD. Once I converted and added shipping these earrings cost me $60 AUD. The shipping cost had no tracking, unless I wanted to pay $40 USD for shipping. So I never knew if they would even arrive. Three weeks after purchasing they showed up. 

Now clearly I should have read the description better, as these earrings are not Sterling silver, they are in fact silver plated. With less than a week of wear these once lovely earrings are tarnished to heck, look terrible and I'm pretty certain I have basically flushed $60 down the toilet. 
Super disappointed by these, and I would definitely not shop with them again. 

I would pretty much get the same quality in earrings for a couple of dollars down at one of those bargain jewellery stores.  Thumbs down from me. 


Moon Chaser Choker - 32.4

I started following this jewellery store on instagram after they started to be stocked at The Lair. A local boutique in Newcastle. This pretty much confirmed to me that what I was buying was going to be good quality. I wanted a dainty necklace that I could pretty much wear all the time, and in the necklace description it actually says "Sterling Silver, so you never have to take it off".

It started off at $89 but they had a discount code become available so I used that and managed to buy the necklace for $75. I would have to say I am super super pleased with this necklace. It is everything I wanted out of a new daily piece. I have had it on since it arrived in the post and is still looking good as new. 

There are two spots to clip it at the back, so it can either be a regular kind of loose necklace, or more of a choker. So I have it on the tighter clasp, and it looks lovely. I would 100% shop here again, and definitely recommend it to others. Their jewellery is lovely! Thumbs up from me!

Do you have any good quality online jewellery stores that you like to shop at? Share them in the comments.

  3. Such a shame about those earrings because they are such a pretty design. I'm the same in that I prefer simple pieces that I can wear again and again rather than statement jewellery.

  10. Loving these pieces! It's such a shame when they tarnish, especially because I'm so bad at taking my jewellery off in the shower - oops!

  11. I LOVE sterling silver jewelry. I'm not one to take on and take off necklaces, earrings, etc. so something that I can basically keep on all the time and not have it change color is a win! Thanks for the recommendation!
