This season’s floral trend isn’t just about flirty, feminine skirts. Flowers are popping up everywhere, like on this sprightly floral ring from Glitzs.
In addition to being fun and fashionable, this piece is truly a work of art. The ring is sterling silver and platinum vermeil; the intricate flowers are gold and platinum vermeil, each featuring a created diamond. In short, it’s playfully posh.
This unique piece is now on sale for $28.26, down from $64.42.

As extensive as my shoe collection is, there’s one type of footwear that’s pretty uncommon among the bunch: shoes bought at full price.
Yes, it takes a really great pair of shoes for me to justify paying full price, but earlier this year I bought the AK Anne Klein Impress flats after drooling over photos and reading rave reviews. Fortunately, I’ve been nothing but impressed with their comfort and quality. They also still look good as…
Tested over millennia, pearls are the epitome of classic style. But while a simple strand of pearls is always elegant, there’s still plenty of room to play up the glamor. With high quality simulated pearls, you can do it without a Hollywood salary.
No, this definitely isn’t some dime store trinket. This triple strand Tzarina bracelet from 1928 Jewelry is a stunning piece that will have people wondering if its a family heirloom. Though it’s luxe enough…

That’s why I’m so happy to come across a piece so gorgeous but inexpensive as this crystal drop necklace from 1928 Jewelry. It…
It’s hard to go wrong buying high quality, basic pieces in solid colors — like this ribbed tank top from American Apparel.
The accessorizing options are endless, but layering is where you can really get funky with pieces like this. Wear two at once, add a trendy vest, or even use one like a sweater vest over another top, especially as it cools into fall.
With 17 colors to choose from at just $7.49 each (down from $22),…

Sure, cheap sunglasses can let you experiment with shutter shades and other summer fads without breaking your budget. However, if you’re serious about protecting your eyesight (or just want to look luxe for less), then I recommend splurging a bit for a quality pair that you and your eyes will love for years to come.
These oversize Gucci sunglasses provide 100% UVA/UVB protection to protect your eyes and delicate eye area from the sun’s harmful rays all year…
Having completed a bachelor’s in classical studies, I’m obliged to like this season’s gladiator sandals however outlandish some pairs may be. But if you’re worried that this trend won’t live to see another summer, then take a look at these more delicate sandals that are fit for a goddess.
Available in three shining shades, these Jovialgrin sandals from Nine West are the perfect combination of daring dazzle and truly classic style. They’re the perfect choice when you…
A short break turned into a long one - sorry about that!We’ve been working on a top-secret project that’s almost ready to launch, so the wait is nearly over.
What type of project?

Over the past couple of years, we’ve been asked a lot of different questions here at The Bargain Queens. Some we could answer in a blog post or a quick email; some couldn’t. So we’ve been working on some better ways…
