Reform antler jewelry revisited
Permalink Closed


I've loved this jewelry for months and I almost bought a piece in February but decided against it. Now there is a 25% off code but I'm having trouble justifying this purchase.
I can't really tell if I just don't love them as much anymore or whether my more practical side has totally taken over my brain...but I'm afraid that after the code expires I'll be kicking myself for not using it.


I'm debating between the earrings and the necklace. Here they are with the discounted prices.
silver $87, 14kt vermeil $120


silver $91, 14kt vermeil $125

I think the earrings are kind of cool - the necklace, not so much. If you are a silver wearer, I'd get them in sterling - The problem with vermeil is that it's gold-plated sterling, which *will* wear off.

I think they're really cool. I like the earrings better, but if you don't love them anymore don't get em.

Agreed, on both points.  I like the earrings better and go for the silver (I hate vermeil, gold-filled or solid gold is much better).

Yeah I don't know why I included the vermeil prices because I would get silver.
I prefer the earrings too but I was thinking of getting the necklace because I don't have many funky necklaces.

Hmmm I guess I have some time to mull this over before the code expires. I still think the earrings are so awesome and I know I would wear them but lately I keep thinking "That's money that could go towards a plane ticket back to France!"
But knowing me I'll probably blow the money on something stupid anyway like junk from Old Navy.
