Poor quality

I really do like alot of pieces that Stella & Dot comes out with. I find them to be unique and cool and I used to buy alot of jewelry from them. The reason I do not recommend and will likely not buy anymore pieces from them is the quality. As far as costume jewelry/accessories goes, S&D;is expensive and the quality is severely lacking. I purchased a necklace for over $200 to wear with a dress to a wedding and it broke halfway through the night. I know that quality control can be hit and miss and even an expensive piece can break so I like to give the benefit of the doubt. However, this has happened with several pieces I have purchased. For the cost, I would expect higher quality. Cute stuff though.
