Best Buys: Ivory Hand Necklaces

Now that the men had their best buys, I think it's time women saved a few extra bucks too!  This week we will give you ladies the 411 on a vintage ivory hand necklace that we are lovin' at the moment! The necklace is ultra chic and beyond elegant.  Are you lucky enough to have this lovely accessory around your neck?


As seen on The Cut this week, this vintage piece is quite pricey for the average college student, but what if we were to tell you where to get similar pieces that are in your price range? Please, step into our world ;)



Sure we would all die for a vintage piece, but in college we really have to make sacrifices.  However sacrifices do not mean getting an uggo accessory as a replacement! Not cute.   So let me show you some cute alternative choices instead!




Are you a music junky?  Have a little edge to your wardrobe?  Did you blast "Thriller" this Halloween? (Well . . . maybe that was only me.) Anyway, I think Girl Props is just the right alternative for you! This may not be ivory but it is vintage! Inspired by Michael Jackson's famous single glove, this piece is screaming to be the finishing touch for your outfit.  Priced at just $9.99, how can you go wrong?  This is the perfect piece to finish off your ensemble!














Now maybe Michael doesn't really inspire your outfit choices.  Maybe you're more of the classic black lace style?  Adding mystery and exotic pieces influence decision-making for your closet?  Then it's time to go check out Etsy for this next piece! This highly-chic-in-its-own-right necklace is actually for luck. Yes, you read that right! This necklace was made to bring luck to witches as their "lucky hand".  Etsy is known for putting out beyond ordinary pieces which is why we love them! (ehemmm check out the Ect-ETSY posts every Thursday!) This necklace is just $25, definitely a great buy because you are guaranteed no one else will have it!









I'm aware that last choice may have been too far out there for your liking but this next option is actually pretty close to the gorgeous original.  The hand vintage necklace is actually made of ebony! Still with the same flow as the original and a detailed gold necklace to go with, but it has its own vibe to it that I kind of like.  Ready to be worn by any lucky gal and to make her outfit pop! This is from Stella Saves the Day (how ironic?) just in time to help a college student out! If you love this piece it's just $34, will make you look chic, and wards off evil eyes! Win, Win!






Time to get to shopping ladies! Here's all the best alternatives you can ask for! Their fun, chic, and cheap! Just the way a broke fashion student likes in accessories. ;) Let us know if you picked up a piece and send us a picture of what you wore it with! We love hearing from you! Have a great weekend! xo
