Ippolita Ring – Magazine to Real Life

Another favorite of mine from the March issue of Bazar Magazine is this Ippolita ring. The Color is stunning; the water affect is a big spring 2013 trend. This ring will look gorgeous with an all-white ensemble and matching blue earrings. Perfect for those warm nights to come!

Take the needle off the record…at $1,095.00 I realized I can’t have it. Like most other things in the fashion magazines this ring is out of range financially for most of us, what I affectionately call the masses.

So as always, off to work I went to find the Achievable Fashion alternative for me, and the masses; the Magazine to Real Life version if you will.

Check out this almost perfect version for those of us who are part of the mass! I also found her sister earrings. Its days like these that make me think, hot diggity dog I’m good!

Pearl Rings – Magazine to Real Life

The March Bazar Magazine has a ton of things I love! I have already reported some of my favs and more will follow! Here is a photo, from “The Party” – Chic Soirees, The best entertaining tips from top designers, showing some gorgeous pearl rings.

I am a lover of fantastic cocktail rings. A few fabulous cocktail rings are a must in every ladies wardrobe. Included in those few has to be a fabulous pearl ring! The rings in this photo fit the bill; they are big, bold, and a statement they make.

Financially however, unless you are among the elite there is no way you are getting your hands on them. In fact there are no prices, which means, holy price tag. So for those of us who aren’t willing to take out a second mortgage on our home to purchase a cocktail ring, here are two wonderful choices. Is that Magazine to Real Life or what?

Look for Less – The Mulberry Bag!

Check out this gorgeous Alexa Bag by Mulberry. Wouldn’t it be great if we could all sashay down the street with this puppy, aka bag. The fact of the matter is, this bag costs more than most mortgage payments, which eliminates it as budget friendly for the majority of us.

Here’s where Achievable Fashion comes in. We find a way, for those of us who can’t drop the average mortgage payment on a bag, to get a similar look. Here is the Mulberry next to a bag we found at Bag Inc. Ok, it’s no Mulberry Bag, but I think it is a similar look. Hey for only $79.00 I’ll take it!

Mulberry Bag $1200.00

Bag Inc $79.00

Tacori Ring – Look for Less!

Over $2,000.00

$54.95

During my search this month I came across a beautiful Tacori ad with stunning rings. Tacori is an amazing jeweler. Their pieces are beautiful with the utmost attention to detail. This beauty and attention to detail comes with a matching price tag.

One of our jobs at Achievable Fashions is to make fashion attainable to all women. For those of us who can’t afford a ring that is more than our mortgage, I found one we can afford at Fantasy Jewelry Box. This pink ring from fantasy jewelry box has a similar look and feel to the Tacori ring, but has a more attainable price tag.

Is our version and exact match? No – but for the price it works the same!

Get Pippa Middleton’s Look!

Get Pippa Middleton’s look. Check out this beautiful tan shoulder bag, a similar version of the bag Pippa is carrying. You may not have royal ties, but you will look regal with this bag on your arm. Give this to one of your favorite gals for the holidays! Bag Inc has some of the hottest bags on the planet!

The Look For Less – Kim Kardashian’s Black Designer Bag!

Check out the black designer bag Kim and lots of other celebs love to carry. I am not sure exactly how much this bag costs – but I can guess it is more than a few months of my mortgage. I don’t think bypassing on my mortgage so I can carry this bag around would be such a great idea. Achievable Fashion to the rescue! We have found a great version for us real women. Bag Inc’s – Essential Jane Black Leather Bag is a great option. This is a good quality bag inspired by the one Kim is carrying. This bag sells for $159.00. Check it out along with all the other fabulous bags Bag Inc Carries!

Look for Less – Quilted Classic Handbag

Everyone is loving the small quilted hanbag. We all know Chanel has made this look famous. We also know that celebs can afford the original! Now, we would all love to be able to drop $1,300.00 for this great bag, however, that is just not reality for most of us. We at Achievable Fashion are always on the hunt for where real women can get great looks for less. We found some great choices. Check out the white quilted bags we found.

Tiffany Inspired Key Necklace!

Tiffany Just Jewelry

We all love Tiffany. That little egg blue box! Unfortunately, not all of us have the luxury of ordering from the gift master whenever we want. Luckily for us there are great alternatives.
