if you've got one too. follow me.

so where can i find myself one of these?

that isn't totally over priced?...

ive seen similar things at jc pennys and such and it is perfect, keeps your jewelry in sight, not tangled, there a mirror on the front, but why when i find such things do they cost a fortune?

wishing i was here.

one thing im totally bummed about not being able to experience this weekend, the high line. part 2 just opened up thursday, and its old high line tracks that have been long abandoned and now turned into parks/pathways/gardens and it looks just fabulous.

why do you have to always be tempting me to your website with pictures of fabulous clothes in the corner of my facebook page. ::sigh:: if only i could afford the bathing suit.

after waiting a few hours for our train to NYC, and hearing it could be delayed 6 hours or longer, we made the heart breaking decision to cash in our tickets n say it was best to go another time. the trip i had planned was a short one already and after a 20 hour train ride, loosing one of the precious few days we had wasn't worth it, so here's hoping that i finally get out there soon.

also sorry for the insane lack of posting, i have been training and switching to a new position at work and it is kicking my butt to say the least.

c'mon skinny love just last the year.

DANNIJO

 such lovely things from dannijo.

such amazing pieces. very inspiring.

i need to get my motivation back to work on my own jewelry again. work has me so burnt out i never want to work on my own pieces when i have the time.

about a year ago now.

though this photo makes it look like i graduated in 1910.. it was really 2010.

crazy how fast a year goes by.

and in the past 2 weekends ive been to another 2 graduations.

etching again.

cut out an old piece, a lil puffer fish. 

i bought supplies to get into etching again and i need to get on that soon.

cant get you out of my head.

as is sit here listening to the thunder..

i thought to myself, its a friday night, i wanna go out, and look cute, but dont want my shoes soaked, so high heel rain boots would be perfect.. and look what i found. 

now.. the real question RED or BLACK?!?!

black would match everything but red would pop nicely....

i know where part of one of my next paychecks is going..
