Pearls

I have always had a thing for pearls. Tthe first earrings I bought when I got my ears pierced? Freshwater pearl studs! I must have had an eye for classic style, even at the young age of 11.
In the same vein, I have been working with a fashion and accessory specialist, to develop some new pieces for my Etsy shop. I wanted to combine ribbon and pearls and she helped with the right lengths the design and with current and classic color combinations. You can be assured that these necklaces will become your new go to pieces and that they will last you a long time. I specialize in pretty strong jewelry, I know how I treat mine... I just listed five new necklaces in my shop to see how people like them.

Without further ado here are some pictures of my new beauties...

So tell me what you think about them? I know I love them but that could just be me? In other blog news I am thinking about adding another theme day. As you know I currently do the Sunday 5, and Food Friday. I am thinking about featuring one knitting and maybe sewing pattern each Wednesday. I know it would be nice to have a place to go for handpicked fashion forward knit pieces. If you would be interested in this type of feature let me know!

Well I am out, I need to recover after the hour and a half I just spent with my calculator doing mortage calculations in my Real Estate class. Ya I know, your so jealous!

Happy Monday Party People!

The Happy Triggers

This Sunday is an extra anxious Sunday. See tomorrow is the first day of the spring semester here at USD. But I am feeling pretty calm. I was waiting the tummy ache, or the chills, or the freak out to come. And, well, it hasn't. Which is great, no complaints here. At first I thought, finally I have outgrown the Sunday night tummy aches, on this my very last semester of college. But what I was quick to realize is that I have just learned my happy triggers. While I sat on my bed contemplating the new week about to start I had an idea. Why not share my happy triggers with the world and ask you guys for yours. Thus begins...



The New Sunday Tradition

Every Sunday, on this here blog, I will be sharing 5 different things that are making me happy right now. This week, and, I am sure many weeks to follow, my list will consist of music that is keeping me upbeat and positive. All I ask of you is to add a song or five in the comments section, that makes you happy. Consider it a happiness trigger karma bank, give a penny take a penny, so to speak. So without further ado here are my top five happy songs for this my very last first week of school!

1. Moondance- Van Morrison
2. I Gotta Feeling- Black Eyed Peas
3. Whatcha Say- Jason Derulo
4. Just Say Yes- Snow Patrol
5. Strawberry Swing- Coldplay

Happy Sunday!!
