BaubleBar Bar Bracelet
I saw the ads for the BaubleBar Bar Bracelet a few months ago and thought it was a genius charm bracelet style for people with small wrists like myself. You can choose from gold, pearl, rose quartz, or turquoise for the delicate beaded bracelet. The bracelets feature a small bar that unscrews and you place the charms on there. The charms are sold separately and BaubleBar has a lot to choose from. I decided on the pearl bracelet and I chose 3 whimsical charms a horseshoe, a large heart, and a butterfly.

Feeling Tropical at Home
Did you have any tropical vacation plans for this summer that can canceled? I did not. I was supposed to go to Ireland, which is not exactly tropical, but really I just wish I could go anywhere at this point! Anyway, since I’m pretty much just sticking to my area, I thought it would be fun to do a tiny little tropical themed thing at my parents’ house. Now, it’s not a full-on theme. I didn’t make decorations or break out the tiki torches or anything, but I did make virgin pina coladas (a throwback to my childhood when we would make these all the time), wear a neon green…

Heart Pavé Necklace
I participated in #BlackOutTuesday yesterday on Instagram and only posted on my stories and Twitter with information, resources, news articles etc. I plan to address this on my feed today, but on my Instagram feed I am planning to go back to my normal content photos today. But I want to make clear that just because my photos may be my own and not about current social issues, does not mean that I am not a supporter of the movement and against all forms of racism and police brutality. I feel the best way for me to serve, besides practicing what I preach, signing petitions, donating where I can etc.…

Pandora Rings
For months I’ve had my eye on a crystal, sunburst style ring from Swarovski. Then, they had a sale and it was the perfect opportunity to get it and pick up a gift as well. But, alas it was not meant to be because I tried to place my order for like 4 hours and the website was not working! Frustrated, I gave up and browsed the Pandora website. So, instead I got 2 dainty rings from Pandora for about the price of the 1 Swarovski ring. I got a silver crystal bow ring and a rose gold crystal heart ring.

Buddha Wheel Pendant
It’s the start of a new week and while I have a little case of the normal Monday blues, I’m hoping this week is much better than the blah week I had last week. Let’s start off the week with good vibes. I love coin jewelry and when I saw this Buddha Wheel one I thought it was something different than the normal greek coin jewelry. I don’t know a lot about Buddhism, but I looked up the symbolism of the wheel, also known as the Dharma Wheel. There is a ton of information on it, but to keep this short and simple the wheel is depicted with eight spokes…

Love Knot Earrings
Before I talk about these earrings, I have some exciting news to share! My ongoing Wattpad teen fiction story shot up yesterday to #2 in the “Identity” category out of 5,700 stories! I’m so excited!! Here is the link to the story if you want to check it out! When I saw this love knot earrings from Kendra Scott, I thought they were so dainty and pretty. The remind me of earrings I had when I was a kid that I got as a gift from my parents or aunt or someone. The design is so simple, but beautiful. I love that it comes in 3 finishes – I picked rose…

Velvet & Sequins Double Wrap Bracelets
In 2019 I bought my first Victoria Emerson bracelets and was hooked. I don’t have a ton of bracelets from the brand, but I have a few and enough to know that I love the look of them and the quality. Victoria Emerson often has sales and once in a while they do a BOGO (buy one, get one free) sale. During the holidays they had one of those sales and I picked up 2 double wrap bracelets – a multicolor sequins one and a green velvet one. Major heart eyes! Both also had the double wrap with chain option which I have for the white and black leather wraps,…

Mirrored Jewelry Armoire
I’ve always liked the look of mirrored furniture, but having a whole mirrored dresser didn’t seem vary practical to me. Plus think of all those fingerprints! I’d be Windex-ing every day! As I settled in to my new condo, I knew I had to do something about all my jewelry. I have a large jewelry box with a lot of my fine jewelry, but over the years I’ve accumulated so much fashion jewelry that my jewelry was living out of boxes and the little clear baggies they come in. It was getting messy. So I decided to look for a jewelry armoire and then it dawned on me that I…

Emerald Pull Chain Bracelet
I love pull chain bracelets because they’re customizable to your wrist size. I have small wrists so unless bracelets are adjustable or stretchy, they’re usually too big on me. And even if they have a lobster claw closure or toggle unless there are enough links, it could still be too big for me. But, pull chain bracelets are completely adjustable – you just pull until it fits! I had my eye on these emerald and crystal dangly pull chain bracelet from Alex & Ani all during the lead up to the holidays. I’m pretty sure I shared it on Instagram Stories multiple times. I was going to buy it for…
