MW Goodies: Street Princess Jewellery

Hey Whirlers,

How are you all? I recently purchased some goodies from Street Princess, which I`m very excited about! Especially as I had my eye on  a 'Ellie' bracelet for a while.

Let me give you the lowdown on Street Princess. An online jewellery boutique where the Princess is Naheeda, a wonderful chick that I had the pleasure to meet a few months ago at a bloggers meet up in London. Naheeda takes great pride in her work, and it is reflected in the end product where her bracelets are all handmade and are perfect, masha`Allah. She initially did a whole range of jewellery, but is now focussing on her handmade bracelets for a short period. That explains why her rings and necklaces are in the amazing blog sale over on her blog.

I was given the opportunity to purchase a few goodies from Street Princess with 50% discount, and here are the pictures of my purchase:
I`m a sucker for cute packaging. It shows effort and pride in their work, and most importantly, wanting to put a smile on their customers face. Orgazana pouches and little card boxes that are filled with treasures.

Here is a close-up of the packaging. There are mini crowns on one side of the box, which signifies the princess in the name. Totally cute, creative and a lot of thought has gone into the packaging. My bracelets came in this, where it was further wrapped in pink tissue paper to protect the bracelet inside the box.
A further close-up of the packaging. This is the other side of the box, showing the logo of Street Princess. Again, much thought as gone into the whole image of the product as a whole.

With the products, I was give a post card from Naheeda with a personal message. I told you I`m a sucker for cute packaging and the extra effort into putting a smile on your customers face!

'Bow' ring - £2
This was purchased from the blog sale. How cute is this ring? This ring is perfect for me, with chubby fingers, as the ring is expandable.
Riley in Red/Gold
An example of how perfectly made this bracelet is by Naheeda.
Ellie in Nude
This is my favourite product from the purchase! I love elephants.
This bracelet is JUST TOOOOO CUTE!!! I took more photos of this bracelet as I loved it too much!


Another personal touch by Street Princess is to have SP on the ends of the bracelet to stop the bracelet falling off.
It took me a while to get used to this extra weight, and had to be careful not to let it fall into my food,
but again, reflecting the personal touches to Naheeda's work.


I did actually purchase another item, a tribal necklace in antique gold, but when I was taking photos the necklace was sitting in my new necklace board and I was too lazy to go upstairs and bring it down! But, that necklace is also very pretty!!

I think the amount of time and effort Naheeda puts into her jewellery is amazing and truly reflects it in the end product. She has nailed the personal touches, the handmade bracelets are flawless and she has created truly amazing packaging to go with her jewellery, surely to leave her customers with a smile on their face.

MW's Mini Goodies from Forever 21

My Wicked Whirrlers!! :)

Ordered a few little items off Forever 21's website:


Chandelier Long Necklace - £6.60
Long Finger Ring - £3.90

I absolutely love these purchases!! I can definitely see a lot of use out of the necklace, as its black and simple and can be thrown on plenty of outfits. 
(Of course, if you want to be more creative, then why not make a necklace with your own earrings like I did  here. Its obviously more of a wiser option, as you`re wearing your favourite earring lol AND you save money.) 


The ring is cool. I like it. I wore it yesterday, didn`t get too much in the way nor caught in clothes, so I think I`ll be wearing that a bit, too. :)

My only concern was the delivery of my online order. I spent £3.95 on delivery....thats quite dear if I do say so myself, but with that much for delivery, surely one would expect the goodies to be delivered, lets say fairly promptly? I received it over a week later!! And, the ONLY reason I even received it then, was after I emailed F21 and followed up on my order! They said it went to the wrong depot and was being relabeled and sent back to my nearest depot, which meant they only picked up on their error after I brought it to their attention! Thats not good enough for me. They DID refund me on my delivery, but I`d rather not be put in this situation again in the future, especially at £3.95. 

So, in the future, if I really want anything from F21? I`m just going to pop into the stores in London rather than go through the hassle of emailing F21 Customer Services to follow up on my order!
