AW: Bought my bracelet and card box!
Syd A. in Planning, on February 27, 2012 at 11:36 AM

I love Rent the Runway!! I bought a designer bracelet that retails for more than $100 for only $40! It's the RJ Graniazo Hematite Cut Out Bracelet. The picture doesn't do it any justice!...

Opinions please! 2nd Draft of My Bouquet
Syd A. in Style and Décor, on February 15, 2012 at 11:09 AM

Here's the 2nd draft of my bouquet. The florist pushed the calla lilies down more, but she said if she tries to push them down more, they may fold over. I like it, but I'm not in love with it. I don't...
