Jewellery Haul (Sale at Globus)

This time of the year is all about sale. Every store is putting up their ‘Sale’ boards. 

Yesterday I went to Phoenix Mall, Lucknow, and found that Globus is up with their ‘Up to 50% off’ sale. This sale is for 3 days, yesterday, today and tomorrow. Do take a look if you get time.

I usually stock up some of the accessories to gift to my friends. And Globus has a nice collection of jewellery.

All the clothes that were on sale were really ridiculous and I thought nothing was worth buying. So I went to their accessories section expecting I will get some nice stuff there. Well the jewellery section was up to my expectations.

I came back with 2 necklaces, 2 earrings, 1 bracelet and 1 tag.

1.    Necklaces: The crystal necklace was for Rs299 with 50% off and the coin chain necklace was for Rs499 with 30% off.

Crystal Necklace (Rs150)
Coin Chain Necklace (Rs350)
2.    Earrings: Both the earrings were for Rs299 with 30% off.
Black Earrings (Rs210)
Cream Earrings (Rs210)
3.    Bracelet: These were awesome finds at just Rs129 with 50%. I actually got these because I am very skinny and it is hard for me to find bangles that fit me. And these fit perfectly.

Metallic Bracelet (Rs65)
4.    Name tag: This is actually a luggage tag but because of the caption, I thought it will be perfect for my pet, Thunder. It was for Rs100 with 50% off.
Tag (Rs50)
     I am really happy with all the accessories i bought. These sales are great for buying gifts for your family and friends without burning a hole in your pocket.

Plastic (silicone) Footwear from MAX

"Rain rain, go away, come gain another day !!

It would be so good if we could avoid rain like that, but we can’t. Rain stops us from wearing our stylish footwears. Crocs is a famous brand which offers stylish waterproof footwears for rainy seasons. But not all of us are ready to invest in them since they usually range from Rs895 to Rs8995.


I  spotted these at Max which were so much cheaper than the original Crocs. For those who don’t want to spend much, these are the perfect finds.

Price: Rs399
Available at: Max stores
They are available in 5 colors: Light blue, Dark blue, Pink, Orange & Grey.
I bought grey with yellow laces since I thought I could incorporate it with my outfits better.


PROS: 
·         Cheap
·         Comfortable
·         Waterproof body
·         Color options available
CONS:
·         Sole is not fully waterproof


FINAL VERDICT: These are great for rainy season and are a perfect dupe of Crocs at a cheaper price. Max should introduce more designs and patterns.
