Cheap but Chic Diaries - Clear Glitter Makeup Bag !

Its been a long time since I have done a 'Cheap but Chic Diaries' post. Its a post where I feature my bargain finds.

Today's post is a quick one featuring this beautiful Clear glitter beauty bag from Sportsgirl. Sportsgirl like most other stores has sale going on currently. There's also a 30 % further markdown on the sale items.


I really like clear beauty bags, when I saw this, I knew I wanted my makeup to live in it and for under 4 dollars (original price 10), why not ? 

I bought this two days back from my nearby store so chances are you should be able to find it. 

You can use this for makeup, stationery, brushes, etc.

This 'Cheap but Chic Diaries' edition is highlighting the oh-so current trend 'NEON'. Mostly all the jewelry stores have all the trendy time pieces available to add to your arm candy but they range from 20$ - 40$. 

I found this gorgeous Neon yellow n gold link watch at Diva on sale for 9 $. This was originally marked at 29.99 $. .I am not sure why the discounted price shows as 15 $ on the website. I bought mine from the store for 9 $. 

Hope you are enjoying the 'Cheap but Chic Diaries' as much as I am enjoying doing them. The previous ones can be seen  HERE.

Cheap but Chic Diaries - Rings from Lovisa

Today's 'Cheap but Chic Diaries' features rings from Lovisa. They have a 3 for $ 10 sale going on. I believe its mostly for earrings and rings. BTW they are having a mid season sale on a lot of stuff. I bought two statement rings and a small one for a change as they are easy to throw on whenever you want. Both the statement rings are quite edgy n trendy n I really like them. 

One is that aztec design and the other is more like a warrior ring with a mirror finish stone ..




I believe its always good to pick trendy pieces on sale n more classic pieces for the full price :) Hope you enjoyed Edition 3 of Cheap but Chic Diaries. Check out the previous ones HERE.

Cheap but Chic Diaries - Mini Jewelry Organizer

Todays 'Cheap but Chic Diaries' features a pretty little Jewelry Organizer from The Reject Shop. It was priced at 4 dollars.

As soon as I saw this pretty little thing my eyes were just stuck on it and I knew that I wanted it so bad . U ask why ? because it was pink, it was pretty, it was polka dotted and I knew it would look good on my dresser ..




Its a tiny organizer n honestly not very useful for storage. Its a cute piece to keep on your vanity to hang jewelry that is heavy on rotation. The pic on the left is how I have mine, just decorated with the stuff that I am leaning towards currently. This is also available in mint and baby blue color.

Hope you liked the second volume of 'Cheap but Chic Diaries'
