baublebar acrylic block monogram necklace

We all know that I have a slight huge obsession with BaubleBar. Recently, I purchased an item from them that I want to yell about from the rooftops - the acrylic block monogram necklace. It is the most perfect, dainty piece of monogrammed jewelry that I own.


What I ordered
I wanted this to be an everyday necklace, which is why I choose to order it in the tiger's eye color - a pearlized tan. Oh my word. I am in love with it! I pair it with button downs, cotton tees, sweaters, and dress it up or down. I also think the clear crystal or tortoise shell color would be lovely. It's no secret that I love a stunning statement necklace, but sometimes outfits call for something more subtle - and this piece is the perfect fit. It's so teeny tiny but sturdy, even with its dainty look.


BaubleBar, let me list the reasons why I love thee...
  • Free ground shipping on any order
  • Fast turnaround [I ordered this custom necklace on a Wednesday and received it the following Monday]
  • Uniquely gorgeous items
  • Free gifts! When I purchased this item, I received a beautyblender with my order [$20 value]. It was such a pleasant surprise!

cheap thrills

Have you been coveting the BaubleBar custom monogram necklace as much as I have? Welcome, this blog post is for you.

There is something so fun and polished about a good monogrammed item, whether it be jewelry, a tote bag, pajamas, or a classic sweater. Monograms signify that the item is yours, and no one else's. I have been eyeing up monogram necklaces for quite some time now, but I couldn't justify spending $145 on a necklace that I won't be wearing every day. However, I knew there were less expensive alternatives out there. When I want to find something at a decent price that is still unique, I turn to Etsy. The vendors on this site are always a joy to work with, and create one-of-a-kind pieces that are of good quality.

Although I was a little apprehensive to order a custom piece of jewelry for a mere $18.99 + shipping... I did it anyway. The result was surprisingly amazing!


I ordered the 1.25 inch gold plated monogrammed necklace with an 18 inch chain. I have to say, I was quite impressed with the craftsmanship and quick shipping! I received the item in about a week from the seller, which is impressive considering that it was a custom order. The necklace seems like it is very high quality for the price. My only reservation is that I wish the chain was a little bit thinner, and the monogram slightly smaller. But, I am happy with it for now, until I can afford the BaubleBar version. Notable: the chain is not adjustable, but simply has a lobster clasp and one loop.


For days when I don't feel like wearing a statement necklace, and I want something a little more polished, I throw on this item.
