It's time for the annual Foxy Originals friends & family holiday sale at the Bata Shoe Museum!
That’s right, December is in full swing, which means only one thing… it’s time for Foxy Originals to host their annual friends and family holiday sale at the Bata Shoe Museum!
Many of you may remember how big a fan I am of handmade, one of a kind Foxy Originals jewelry. Not only did I win one of their Facebook contests (and along with it came an awesome bounty of $200 in free Foxy jewelry!), I also practically cleaned out their clearance jewelry during last year’s friends and family sale.
You would think with a Foxy collection as big as mine, I wouldn’t need to buy any more stuff from them. But that’s where you’re wrong. At prices like $5 for a pair of earrings (regularly priced at around $24 for the dangly filigree ones that I like), $5 for a ring (also regularly priced at $24), and $10 for any of their necklaces (including their famous reversible necklaces, regularly priced at around $30 to $34)… how can you say no?
This girl? Why, she's in love with Foxy Originals jewelry... especially if the items are at sale or clearance prices!
Now, I know I’ve already proclaimed my undying love for Foxy’s silver earrings before… but it wasn’t until recently that I’ve started getting into their gold jewelry. Maybe it’s ’cause I already own the silver version of pretty much everything listed here in Foxy’s filigree earrings collection. So in my head, buying the same jewelry items in gold that I already owned in silver? Completely justifiable!

While on the topic of gold Foxy jewelry… I’ve been in love with these gorgeous Swirl rings from the new Daydream collection for a while now (drooling from afar, anyway). However, I was never really much of a ring person (in fact, this might come as a surprise but I never really owned any Foxy rings!)… and $24 for a single ring seemed a bit steep to me (considering I could get a pair of earrings for the same price). But when I found it in the clearance bin for only $5? In both silver AND gold? Oh, happy day for Karina!

I must have felt more spontaneous than usual during the sale, because I suddenly felt the urge to splurge on Foxy’s signature reversible necklaces. When it comes to their necklaces, I usually only purchase their monochrome all-silver or all-gold variety. I mean, of course I own a couple of their multicolor flippable necklaces… but during the sale this year I went full-blown, all-out crazy and bought out practically everything they had in their clearance bins. Well, just the cute ones anyway. And only enough to cover all colors of the rainbow, and nothing more, I swear! Check them out below…

And lastly, you know I couldn’t escape the holiday sale without browsing items from the new collections. I fell in love with what I believe is one of Foxy’s best silver filigree earrings to date. Check out these Hazel earrings, also from the Daydream collection. They’re super pretty, AND they were only $20 at the holiday sale… with no tax!

Another thing I swooned over? This chunky silver filigree Jade bracelet. Like their rings, I’ve never really paid much attention to Foxy’s bracelet collection. But I’ve always been a huge fan of their tree-themed jewelry, so there was no I way I could turn down a swoon-worthy bracelet consisting of “four panels of foliage.” It’s like having a bracelet made to order to match my existing Foxy silver filigree leaf earrings!

One more item I couldn’t resist? A necklace that’s completely new to the Foxy shop… something I’ve never seen before. I was intrigued.
What is it you ask? If you go to Foxy Originals website right now, you’ll see it featured in a large banner ad image across their home page:

I guess you can consider it a multicolor reversible necklace like the other items from this signature collection of Foxy’s. But somehow for me, this Serenity necklace is completely different.
For one thing, the colors are jaw-droppingly (Is that a word? It is now!) beautiful. Coral pink on one side and my favorite lime green on the other? So yummy. And something about the shape and the material that it’s made of makes this necklace look classier than the other reversible necklaces.
Anyway, seeing how it was also available for less at the holiday sale, I had to pick it up (despite having already cleaned out of their clearance bins Foxy’s regular type of reversible necklaces!).

Now I just have to wait 12 more months for next year’s sale. See you there next time!
