Was this the krystal range? if so, i purchased a pair of their earrings from secret sales a few months back, apparantly rrp of £45, paid £16 - recieved item & very obvious it was cheap, nasty tat. sent them back and recieved a full refund though so not all bad. didnt take advantage of this offer as i saw it was the krystal range again, would rather spend a pound on primark jewellery - better quality imo!

Yes it was the Krystal range - it just made me giggle that the bracelet was child size!
I have always been teased about my skinny wrists but although I can get the bracelet on if I do the clasp up once on my wrist there is hardly any 'dangle'.

DD will like it so not a waste

I'm awaiting my Krystal bracelet and now with a bit of worry! I googled the brand before ordering and they apparently sell their stuff in Harrods and Selfridges! If it turns out to be junk though it was only £3 and dd can have it for dressing up. Most of their other jewelry has been really good, though. I like their Ice Jewels brand and a few of the other designers have been realy good.

:rotfl:Blimey - I'm pretty sure the bracelet I recieved you would not find in either of those shops.

It was the one with the little crystal flowers on it.

I hope yours turns out ok - was looking at the Ice jewellery last night and thought it looked nice - may well place an order for one of their bracelets if you recommend it

I ordered a Krystal butterfly necklace.
Anyone got one? Im still waiting on mine.

I did two orders at the same time, I received one last Tues and received the other one today, so think there is a delay for some orders.
I'm really pleased with my jewellery however wouldn't have paid full price for it

My Krystal bracelet just arrived! It's....ok leaning towards junk but wearable.,..just...lol! I bought the one with 5 strands of freshwater pearls (a brown and purple combo) on one side and a grouping of chains (some with crystal tennis bracelet style) on the other side and both sides are connected with metal squares with flowers on them which are filled in with stones. My first reaction was that it was really, really small but the pearl strand section is on elastic band so it does stretch and I did manage to squeeze my hands through and actually put the bracelet on my wrist. The pearls sit on top of my wrist with the chains underneath and though they don't exactly dangle the bracelet does seem to move about so it isn't completely embedded into my wrist! It looks like a cuff bracelet, I guess. If you look at it carefully it does look a bit cheap but from a distance it looks okay and almost antique. I did struggle to get it off and I wonder how long it will be before the elastic breaks - however it isn't an everyday bracelet so maybe there is hope!

I've had several of the Ice Jewels pieces and have been happy with all of them - just be careful with some of the pendants as I ordered one with a butterfly and it was huge...I thought it would be nice and small for my dd - she still wears it but it looks like big weight around her neck.

Gold Major is really good - I always watch for them.

The same bracelet that I got this morning! I definately wouldn't pay full price for it, paid £2.50 inc p&p so not too bad price.

Just received my necklace today. It looks quite nice, although i also would not have paid full price for it. Still a bargain for £2.50 though
