Boston Terriers!

I feel like I've been surrounded by adorable Boston Terriers recently! These in particular:

This necklace from All Mighty
This dog bed (I wish the little cutie sleeping on top was included!)
And this card

But of course doxies still have to be first in my heart :)
This necklace seems like a great way to show it
I think Lily would approve!
I also think these necklaces from A.N. Original Jewelry are so cute.
Have a great day :)

Dont be jealous . . .

. . . of my sweet new cowboy boots :)After visiting Austin I had to get a pair! Finally they came yesterday in the mail. I can't wait to wear them!

Also, I have been obsessing (even more) over One Garnet Girl's shop. Ahh so many pretty things!!

I love how the London blue topaz stands out against the matte gold on this one.
This one is called the Ballerina ring. That in itself makes the ring perfect to me.
These are made from lilac buds (they're my all time favorite flower)
And these are just perfectly Springy.

If I could only save up my money for a few months I could buy some more of her beautiful jewelry!

I should be getting these two rings shortly! I ordered them about 2 1/2 weeks ago and her custom orders take about 3 to make. Needless to say I have been dying waiting for them :)







Happy Friday and have a great weekend!!

New Etsy Favorites!

Here are five of the newest things I probably can't live without right now!

Beach Wed Bracelet. Such a cute idea :)

Pair of Peacocks Sterling Silver Cameo Ring

Fresh Greens Stacking Rings


Ampersand Necklace

And here is a cute picture of Lily and Dakota from the March for the Animals last weekend!

Happy Monday!

I've always loved the dresses and skirts made by Glamarita, but this one has me in awe right now. I love it!

I took Lily for a 5.6 mile walk yesterday so she was exhausted. This picture only lasted about 10 seconds, since Lily got annoyed and went to the other side of the couch, but it was cute while it lasted!It's a rainy Monday here, so I'll just be trying to stay dry! Apparently the forecast is pretty rainy all week, so hopefully that means we will have a nice sunny weekend!

Austin was so much fun! I've been so busy since then it seems like. Austin is definitely not what you would think of when you think about Texas. It was so hip and eccentric. I loved it. I got to eat awesome vegan food the whole time too, which clearly makes it 1,000 times better in my book! Here are some pictures :)
Karim went to NY for the day while I was in Austin. He brought me back a pink stuffed labbit, a pair of earrings from the street market in Soho, and he even went to Tarina Tarantino for me and brought me back this ring :) I love it.
Have a great week!

The weather here has been so beautiful. It makes me so happy :)

Here are a few other things making me happy right now ~
. . . and really most the rings from Garnet Girl Designs, including these in particular
Custom pet nose sterling pendant (seriously how adorable and strange is this at the same time?) This shop also makes really unique fingerprint wedding bands!
Cottage Garden Vintage Cameo Ring
This one got away from me before I had the chance to buy it, but I'm sure it went to a good home!

I hope everyone can get out and enjoy the weather at some point today!

Easter Weekend :)

I had a wonderful long weekend! It started off by having falafel Thursday night in Baltimore. It was so delicious! Then Friday was spent visiting my grand mom and parents and getting my dress fitted for the wedding I'm going to May 8th. Oh, and I also picked up my grandmother's ring that she gave me when I turned 20. I have always been afraid to lose it, so I've never worn it. But I decided since I'm going to three weddings this year I may as well wear it! Isn't it pretty??
Then Saturday I volunteered at the MDSPCA again. Picasso is still there, but she seems like a different dog in just a week! She was bouncing all around when I took her outside, and her hair is starting to grow back so she is soft now. I also fell in love with another dog named Heath. He is so sweet and amazingly calm. I wish I could take them all. I also walked another sweet, calm dog named Cletis. When I was walking him there was a family in the parking lot that said they saw him on the website so they came over to pet him. They kept saying how friendly he was, so hopefully they will come back to adopt him.

It was such a beautiful day Lily worked on her tan :)
She was joined by our groundhog, Chuck Norris, and tons of bumble bees that wouldn't leave us alone!
Back to work today but I leave Friday morning to go visit Stacey in Austin! I am so excited!!
