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 ~

This ballet dancer scarf

This Amethyst Ring

. . . 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!!

MDSPCA and New Favorites!

I had my first day volunteering at the MDSPCA Saturday and it went really well! My favorite dog (who was thankfully already adopted) was a small pit bull that had been completely covered in paint. The SPCA had to shave off all of her hair to get the paint off, and there were spots where her skin had been rubbed raw. Her name was Picasso. I took her out in one of the fenced in areas and sat down on the cement. She plopped right down on my lap, legs dangling awkwardly off :)

I also walked this guy named Bruno (who is still looking for a home). So adorable!

Moving along, let's get to my latest favorites!

TARINA TARANTINO'S "ACID ALICE" MULTIBEAD CLUSTER STRETCH RING
