blingy souvenirs

I picked up these awesome rings (owl, bicycle) and bracelet (deer) on the last day of my trip. I usually prefer silver but I fell in love instantly with the brassy bling.

friendship necklace

I've been dying to blog about this for a week now. It was my best friend, Romy's, birthday last week and I decided to make her a friendship necklace like the ones we used to wear in middle school where each person wears half a heart. Except, those are pretty corny for grown women. So I made her an updated friendship necklace out of our running inside joke about dinosaurs. I ordered her a brontosaurus charm and I got a T-rex charm from CuteAbility's etsy shop. And since our 10 year High School Reunion is rounding the corner we've jokingly been calling each other Romy and Michele and so I ordered her a charm from Tiny Tokens Designs that says Romy and mine says Michele. I didn't photograph her necklace but here's an image of mine.



Isn't it the cutest?

minted love

I've been sick for the past week and could barely get out of bed. (Being sick in the summer is the worst!) I finally started feeling better on Friday and felt I deserved a present for the tough week I had. (Ok, I deserve a swift kick in the butt for staying in bed all week, but still). I bought myself this cute duster Love ring from Top Shop.



And in case you're wondering my nail polish is Minted by Revlon. It's my new favorite color.

dinosaur necklaces

How adorable are these dinosaur Candace Ang Vs. Margarita Saplala necklaces I came across on Daily Candy today?





My girlfriends and I have an inside joke about dinosaurs so  whenever we see anything with a dinosaur on it, we laugh out loud (to many quizzical looks), snap a picture, and send it to each other.

bike knuckle ring

How cute is this ring by Rachel Pfeffer? Oh I want it! Put an image of a bike on anything and I'll buy it.



If I wasn't broke...

While I was at the Renegade Crafts Fair last weekend I stopped to take a peak at a jewelry vendor's stand. That's when I found this adorable dinosaur charm necklace. Oh I wanted it so badly, and 4 more for my girlfriends, but unfortunately the price was just a little too steep for me at the moment.



They had awesome rings and also this airplane charm that I'm dying to buy.



I'll be saving up! Unless someone out there wants to mail me a gift ; ) Check out their other designs at Verameat.

Holy Cuuuuuute!!!

I bought this necklace stand from Urban Outfitters the other day. My friend asked me if I really needed a necklace stand. He pointed out that I could barely afford to feed myself.

Well, I don't need it. But isn't it lovely anyway?
