Snazzy new pocket watch that you don't put in your pocket from Rose Wholesale

So a couple days ago I showed you guys that fab, snake killing, warrior ring from Rose Wholesale.  Today I have something else from there.

When I saw that they had pocket watches, I really wanted one just so I could say I had a pocket watch, and be dapper.  Then the more I though about it the more I though I probably wouldn't wear this all that often.  Not only that but I also couldn't help but think it would make me look like some hipster, which I do not want.  So I was pleasantly surprised when I saw these pocket watch necklaces.  The best of both world.  I would wear it more often AND not look like a massive hipster!




I chose this pocket watch necklace.  I just fell in love with how the cut out front looked, and the back with the beautiful, detailed floral design.  On the top of the watch there is that knob that use use to change the time, it's called the crown.  There was a piece of plastic in the crown when you get it.  Once you remove that the watch will start to work.  I should also point out that you need to pull up the crown and then turn it to change the time.  If you don't lift it before you twist it wont do anything.  On top of the crown is a button that opens the watch.  My only thing with this is the paint job.  It was clearly painted to get that antique gold look but some spots near the top are missing some paint and you can see the watches true silver colour.  That being said I don't consider it a big problem as it's not something you can see unless you take a closer look.  Also the watch is less than $6.00 USD, the fact that it came to me in one piece is already a win.


 Editing fun.
This watch retails for 5.47 USD and the shipping for this item is free.

I have one more item from Rose Wholesale that I will show in a couple days, along with my thoughts on the company. (It's a mixed bag of cats my opinion)

Do you think Beyoncé has a watch like this?  I do.

Thanks to Rose Wholesale I can now be more like Beyoncé...Minus Jay-Z.

So what you are about to see is our first non polish, but still beauty related post(We've had loads of random nothing to do with beauty posts).  When we started this blog our intent was to be a mostly nail blog, with other beauty stuff too...we just never got around to that...Until now.

A company called Rose Wholesale contacted us to review some of their products.  After having a look at their website, and looking them up online(since this was my first encounter with them) I decided to say yes.  The Best way to describe Rose Wholesale to you guys is it's the Born Pretty of fashion.  Clothing, shoes, jewelry, you name it, they have it for next to nothing.  I will admit the site is a bit overwhelming as they have thousands of items.  Here is the first of three Items I have to show you.



First is this "Chic Style Solid Color Embellished Nail Wrap Shape Alloy Ring For Women", in bronze(also comes in gold and silver).  It was one of those things, you look at it and think "You're so weird...I need you". It reminded me of some crazy claw finger, that someone like Beyoncé would wear.  I was on the fence about getting this because it was one size.  Eventually I figured if it didn't fit I would figure out a way to Macgyver it.  To my excitement whenI tried it on it fit PERFECTLY on my middle finger. You should know 2 things about my fingers.  1)They are skinny 2) They are long.  My middle finger is almost 13cm from knuckle to tip. The ring is 11cm long and did not fit too tight or too loose around my finger.  Even though the ring covered my whole finger I was still able to use and bend it normally and I was in no way worried about breaking it.  I didn't take a photo of it, but I can easily make a fist while wearing it.


 It looks like I killed a snake in battle, and I am now wearing his snake armor as a warning to others.



I kind of love this ring.  No, it may not be an everyday ring, or for everyone, but I can't wait to wear this on a night out *cough*newyears*cough*.  It's bold and fun, and perfect for the skinny, long fingered people out there.  And I can still hold my beer comfortably.  This ring retails for $3.38 USD.  Shipping costs depend on what you are getting and weight.  BUT small items like this generally ship for free :D.  Also shipping usually take a few weeks, but when shipped from far away(China), with normal shipping, a few weeks is normal.

Could you get away with wearing something like this?  Beyoncé could.
