Shanghai Trip ☛ part 1 ☚ Jewelry

Posted by Reilalala at 1:19 AM
I am back from my trip to Shanghai!

I haven't updated ever since the drugstore post so I will make up for that, by sharing all the stuff I bought in China!


In Shanghai, the underground subway isn't just for subways. When you get out from the trains and walk a few turns, you will arrive at an underground shopping center. Most of the stuff are pretty cheap, but you must always remember this one rule. Haggle! Photobucket



Since there're huge amount of items, I'm going post them in sections for the sake of being neat Photobucket ~

The jewelries I received on this trip were all given to me by relatives. Which was good since all the jewelries are pretty expensive Photobucket




This is a beautiful jewelry box given to me by my aunt. Not quite sure what kind of material it's made of, porcelain, maybe? Photobucket It's pretty heavy. It felt heavier when I found the price, a flipping 60 dollars! Photobucket 


This necklace was also given to my by my aunt. The detail in the flower is absolutely amazing, but the sad thing is gold looks terrible on me! I guess this will just be sitting in a box until sometime in the future Photobucket


This ring was a set with the necklace, but of course again, its in gold. . . 


This necklace however was my favorite piece out of all the jewelries I've received Photobucket The turquoise stones are really beautiful, I've been search high and low for an accessory with a true turquoise color and now I don't have to anymore! Photobucket Also, instead of a chain, the stones are connected with a thin strand of black and gold string. Which is a plus for me since I'm allergic to metal, and I can wear this for as long as I want without worrying about my skin getting irritated Photobucket ~


The necklace would go really well with a loose white t shirt!

Although this bracelet is gold, the black elastic bands on the side kind of balanced it out. It looks okish on my skin. 


And we're coming down to the last one. I love this one just as much as I love the turquoise necklace haha. My other aunt owns a boutique shop, and she invited me down to pick out some items that I liked. She was SO generous! As I tried on outfits, she was running around finding accessories for me. I felt a little guilty since she didn't want me to pay for any of them, but this bad boy right here, I had to take home no matter what.  





Isn't it gorgeous?! Photobucket I've always wanted a big dramatic centerpiece in my closet, but of course I'm super picky and have a small wallet hehe.. 

So that is all for now! I feel really spoiled during my time there, but I guess since this is the first time I went back in 7 years. 

In the next posts I will be sharing: clothes, beauty products, and Mics. Bye bye now! Photobucket
