Jewelry?

Any suggestions on where to go to get some bridal jewelry for a decent price?  I'm looking for my jewelry as well as for my bridesmaids.  I'm finding it a little difficult to find their's because I'd like for it to be blue and I can't find much blue jewelry that is fancy!  I'm looking for southwest suburbs area.

I've thought about using Etsy but I find it a bit difficult to navigate since there are so many different pieces of jewelry available!  Anyone have luck with a particular vendor??

Thanks so much!

    I'm going to Off 5th.  It is the outlet for Sax Fifth Avenue.  They have a HUGE sale going on right now and the jewelry is pretty amazing.

    There is another Jewelry Show in Rosemont July 8-11 with an amazing amount of jewelry from diamonds to costume at great prices. You can register for free at www.jfashow.com.

    There is also a show coming up in August in Schaumburg (most of the same vendors but with free parking.)

    I have gone four or five times now and find great deals each time. (I also have way more pashminas than I need, but at $10 bucks a pop it's so easy to stock up.)

    You should check it out. Good luck with your search! :)

    I'm in the NW 'burbs and there's a store in Woodfield mall that sells cheapy jewelry that looks nice. I bought my jewelry and my BM's jewelry there. I'm sure it's not the highest quality, but it did get the job done for the wedding day.


    Etsy can be difficult to wade through if you're looking for something super specific. There are ways to narrow down your search. It takes a lot of practice and time though. =) But that's just my experience.

    Do you have an idea of what you want the bridesmaid's jewelry to look like?  I kind of knew what I wanted, so I did "Etsy Alchemy" and got a bunch of requests. 


    Check out my bio -- under "Inspiration & Ideas/Bridal Party Gifts".  You can see some of the jewelry through my fb album (I put a link under Vendors).

    I don't know if I'm the only one, but I hate shopping. Hate. If I have to buy anything, I buy online. I even bought my wedding dress online!

    I bought all my jewelry (earring, headband, BM jewelry and even mother's jewelry) at weddingfactorydirect.com

    Best prices I found anywhere. Check my bio for pictures.

    I went to the James Ciccotti store in Lincoln Park & saw a ton of reasonably priced jewelry that was gorgeous!  I plan to get my BM & possibly my own there.

    I second the store in the Woodfield Mall especially if you want a little "bling" but don't want to pay an arm and a leg for them.  I'm actually going tomorrow to get my earrings although I may take a minute and check out the other options you guys listed here!

    I got my jewerly from Etsy shop plumb crazy. She was super nice and very quick to respond to questions. I love the jewelry and can't wait to wear it! She even put in a cute little pair of earrings for free as a thank you!
