Earring Haul

A little while ago my mom and I took a trip to a tiny shopping mall in our town. It isn't our real mall but  it has a few okay places to go. One of the places we went for was Dress Barn. I didn't pick up any clothing by I did happen to find some earrings which I have been in desperate need of. 

I don't love earrings that dangle and I'm not big on hoops so finding these studs were awesome. I have really sensitive ears too so I needed something nickel-free. So here we go!

These first two sets have three in each and I think they are great for the year round. The first set has three pairs with a silver, gold, and copper color. What I really love about these are that they are textured. It makes them stand out a little without being obnoxious. The other set I love because the first two pairs I can wear in my second hole without getting in the way of the first hole's earrings...if that makes sense :)

This set has a pair of diamond looking studs, a pair of gold balls, and then a textured pair of gold balls.

These next two pairs are gorgeous and I'm so excited I found something like them. They are the same pair but one is gold with a yellow center gem and the other is silver with what looks like a blue center gem. Each has a ring of white gems around it. I feel like these while they look fancier can be pulled off with anything if done right. 

Then not too exciting but I bought a package of all different kinds of backings because I always end up losing those!

So there you go! My ears are happy with new sparkly things! Have you gotten any good pieces of jewelry lately?

Shop Bop Wish List

After some browsing on ShopBop, here is a wish list of some things I saw on there!

This dress is by Parker and I adore the colors on this dress and the chevron pattern is very popular right now!

The back of this Rachel Pally dress kills me, I would love to have something like that! Plus, I don't have too many bright pink items in my closet. 

I would love to rock a pair of black leather pants, when I go out to the bar or on a date night with Shaun even. It is something I've never done before, and cannot wait to try. These are by J Brand.

These earrings are fricking awesome! I'd wear them every day! These babies are on sale by Marc Jacobs for $19 too... I may just have to get them.

The description says the bracelet's color is brown, but this looks very close to rose gold - and I will want and wear ANYTHING rose gold. I'm in love with that metal. Marc Jacobs FTW!

And Marc Jacobs does it again! This necklace is gorgeous! This is something I would probably wear everyday, and I am not a big necklace person. Usually they have to be very delicate chained necklaces for me to wear. However, I'd make an exception for this ;)

 Speaking of delicate pieces, this is probably the most beautiful little bracelet I've seen in a while. It is by Gorjana, and I love it all the more because it is called the Gatsby Charm Bracelet. The Great Gatsby is my favorite book!

Last but not least, I love the idea of rope and metal combined. This is such an elegant piece without being too over dressy. The company, Sailormade, has this bracelet in a bunch of colors and designs.

Sadly, most of this stuff is way out of my price range...but it is fun just looking!

Mini Haul 4/29/12

Happy Sunday everyone! Although I'm quite sad that the weekend is over, I feel like I did nothing. I stopped at the mall today to buy a poster frame and I gave into the shopping gods and bought a few items :)

First off, I want to show you the poster I bought. I've talked about him before but Phillip DeFranco, a super popular youtuber, has a company called For Human Peoples. He teams up with friends and guest designers and he sells t-shirts and posters mostly. I bought one of his posters that I believe he has a part in designing. I love this poster.

This picture is off the website: www.forhumanpeoples.com  If you can't see what the poster says I'll insert that here:

"This is America. There is no reason to lie, cheat, steal, unless you wanna be awesome. But don't fuck people over to get to the middle. You betray everything America is about. We didn't throw Britain's tea into the ocean because we wanted to be a mediocre country. We didn't let those fuckers line up in a line and then shoot 'em in the back, because we didn't want to be one of the best countries in the world. And we're not giving China an IOU, because we actually plan on paying it back. This is America; the land of opportunity to fuck people over. To take what isn't yours. But only if you plan on getting to the top of the mountain and waving what you have and that they don't, in their face. That's America."

The bottom of the poster says Phillip DeFranco 07/01/2010 and under that is www.phillyd.tv
 Sorry if it isn't much of your taste, but I love it. His views on America are pretty much the same as mine. We were once a great country, but we have a lot of idiots who are ruining it for us. They are bringing down the quality of our government and our country and that is why we are not where we used to be.

Anyways!

So what I got from the mall! I first stopped in a store called Francesca's. It is such a cute store with mostly clothing and jewelry and a lot of vintage looking pieces. They also have cute trinkets like mustache straws and wooden boards with sayings on them. I love it. I am really into long sparkly necklaces and I found this:

^ It is a pattern of pearls and crystals all in a gold tone :)









 This is the necklace doubled up because it is so long!



Then I stopped into JCrew because that is my dream closet in a nutshell. And I cannot help myself! I bought a dress on sale and one of their basic t-shirts.

I really like the dress for summer, it is a beautiful color and it is linen so it will be awesome in the heat or at the beach. It has sleeves that end right before the elbows and an elastic waist but you can kind of make it slouchy. It also has two pockets on the sides! The t-shirt is a color combo (forest green and a pinky lavender) I've never seen or had before and I just immediately picked one out of the pile without even thinking!

Hope you Monday goes well!
