Shopping Fun

In case you haven't noticed, I love to shop! Whether I'm just browsing or on a search for something special, I find shopping incredibly relaxing and stress-reducing. So, of course, I had to squeeze in at least a little shopping during my New York City trip last weekend. First, while walking down the street, two gorgeous turquoise and light blue wraps sold by a street vendor caught my eye for only $5. I also made a quick stop at the Alexia Crawford Sample Sale. Alexia Crawford is a wholesale jewelry and accessories company that you've probably never heard of, but I had purchased some fun jewelry at a sample sale of theirs a few years ago. I got two pairs of earrings, a bracelet, and a few necklaces for my mother - all of which were $7 and under. I love having fun costume jewelry to mix in with my handmade pieces and more special jewelry.

After many trips to Manhattan, I've come to the determination that I could NEVER live there because if I did, I would be completely BROKE - there are just way too many shopping options there!!
