Blue Vanilla Sweeney Necklace Review

A while ago, Blue Vanilla contacted me to review their jewelry. I couldn't be happier to oblige. After browsing through Blue Vanilla's website, I had a hard time picking out one item from an assortment of amazing stuff. One particular necklace, however, stood out to me. And I must say that after wearing it a few times, I am thoroughly impressed.

Want to find out more about what I think of Blue Vanilla's Sweeney Necklace? Read on.

The Wow Factor

Nowadays, it's all about making a statement. Statement jewelry is everywhere, and they are here to stay.

The Sweeney necklace, with its layered texture, thick bands and shiny metallic finish, certainly makes a statement against any outfit.

Wow factor? Absolutely.

Versatility

I am a stay-at-home mom, so I cannot afford much. With jewelry and clothes, I like anything versatile. This necklace can easily match a fancy outfit, but also dress up a simple tank or tee. 

Affordability

At $17.00, I think this one is a good buy, especially if I can wear it with anything.


Likes
  • Bulky appearance
  • Shiny, eye catching colors
  • Big clasp for easy usage
  • Versatility
  • Does not tangle easily

Dislikes
  • After a few wears, the finish rubbed and scuffed a little. Makes me wonder a little about lasting power of its brilliant shine.
  • My hair got caught in the metal links. Ouch.


Overall Rating 

Overall, I liked the necklace. And would definitely re-purchase from Blue Vanilla. By the way, I had a wonderful experience working with the store, which makes me think that they provide great customer service.

  6. Nice colors & no I've never purchased anything from them. I don't like when my hair snags in jewelry either.
