My Rachel Leigh Purchase!

I finally bought a Rachel Leigh Audrey bracelet! I've been wanting one for sooo long and since I alway see them on various sale websites, I wanted to get one on sale. Otherwise, I knew the day after I bought one, I'd see them on sale. The problem was I kept missing the sales! Until now - I bought this pink one on The Aisle. The best part is they are still available - and in blue and white too. Click here to go to The Aisle!

Have a wonderful weekend!

Wish List: Bethenny Frankel's Necklace

I was a huge fan of Bethenny Frankel when she was on Real Housewives of NYC and Bethenny Getting Married. So naturally I park myself on the couch on Monday nights to watch Bethenny Ever After! As I've been watching, I've become more and more obsessed with a necklace she wears during one of the "interview" clips.

I absolutely LOVE this necklace. It is perfect and sparkly without being over the top. Plus I can't get over how amazing it looks with the midnight blue silk top she's wearing.

So I scoured the internet, but had trouble finding who made the necklace. I finally found it today on http://www.housewifestyle.com/. It's called the Diamonds Cascade Necklace by Park Lane Jewelry (which seems to be similar to Stella and Dot in the regard that you need to buy it from a rep): I'd love to get it... but it's over $400 and I can't justify spending that on fake diamonds. I've been trying to find something similar, but so far no luck. Any ideas???

Pink & Green Thursday: Meg Carter Designs

Happy Pink & Green Thursday!! I absolutely adore the jewelry from Meg Carter Designs... as I'm sure many of you do too (or will after you check out the pieces below!!). I'm thinking of giving my bridesmaids a pair of Meg Carter earrings, but it's going to be so hard to decide which ones! She has some fabulous pink and green options which are perfect for every occasion.

Happy Friday and Lovely Earrings!

Happy Friday! I'm so happy to see this week end... it's been a tough week at work! Tonight, I'm going out for a friend's birthday and tomorrow I'm free as a bird! My boyfriend and I have yet to decide what we will do, but I'm hoping the weather will be nice. I'm in desperate need of a tan so I hope we do something outdoors!

Anyway, I was perusing the internet today (in between looooong meetings and silly conference calls) and I came across these fabulous earrings from this Etsy shop:

Red and Aqua Chinoiserie Earrings by RebeccaWeis

I love the chinoiserie style! And a fabulous price too!

Have a wonderful weekend! xoxo

These are a few of my (new) favorite things...

A *too cute for words* pink and black Scottie dog tea pot that my mom got for me at Homegoods!

Matching plate number 1...

Matching plate #2... LOVE the houndstooth! (I got some bowls too!)

Kate Puck Green Starfish Earrings that I won from the lovely Southern Living: Preppy Style.

The adorable gifts I received from my Lilly Secret Sister Swap partner... yummy Lilly Animal Crackers and a gorgeous necklace and earring from her jewelry line, Caroline Grace.

Light blue gingham shirt that I picked up on sale at J Crew.

Lilly Pulitzer Seeing Things Tote that I got for my birthday.

This adorable Lilly basket bag that I found at a second hand shop a few weeks ago... I love it! Does anyone know what the name of the print is?

What are your new favorite things?

Have a wonderful week! xoxo

Rachel Leigh Jewelry Sale!

There's a Rachel Leigh sale on Billion Dollar Babes this morning and I'm sadly abstaining from buying anything. I posted about my love for Rachel Leigh jewelry (and my tendency to miss the sales!) here. I'm moving in a few weeks and am trying to save mucho dinero. Thankfully there aren't too many pieces featured on the sale... but I would have loved to get this:

And this:

Billion Dollar Babes is another invitation-only boutique sale site (like Rue La La, Gilt, etc). Click here for an invite. Let me know if you get anything from the Rachel Leigh sale! They also have a vintage Louis Vuitton handbag sale tomorrow which looks interesting!

Alexis Bittar Jewelry on LillyPulitzer.com

Have you seen the Alexis Bittar jewelry up on the Lilly Pulitzer site? It's amazing. I can't picture myself wearing all of it, but it is definitely beautiful and compliments Lilly clothes nicely! Here are some pieces that caught my eye:

I don't wear a lot of yellow gold, but the shade of these earrings is stunning.

I would wear this with so many things!

Not my style per se, but the design is so unique and beautiful.

I LOVE this necklace. The stone is my absolute favorite shade of green.

Love the colors in this ring and weave-like design.

Gold and turquouise go so beautifully together...

Click here to see the rest of the pieces!

Happy Friday - have a fantastic weekend!

P.S. How I Met Your Father is hosting an awesome giveaway - a pair of Lilly Spaghetti Strap McKims! Click here to hop on over to her blog to check it out.

Pretty Tough Jewelry!

I love Rachel Leigh jewelry, yet always seem to miss the sales on Gilt or Hautelook (case in point: this weekend). Luckily, Gilt seems to have Rachel Leigh sales pretty often so I'm bound to catch one sometime! I love Rachel Leigh's combination of cute (i.e. bows, ribbons, pink) and tough (i.e. snakeskin, chains). The pieces are feminine, but with an edge. All her jewelry is beautiful, but I really love the bracelets. Here is some of what is currently on my wish list:

Twisted Rope Bangle with Fuschia Snakeskin

Bow Bangle in Blue

Bow Wrap Bracelet in Fuschia Snakeskin

Hot Pink Enamel Hinge Cuff

Chain Ribbon Bangle

Millie's Ring in Lilac

P.S. I was not compensated in any way by Rachel Leigh. I WISH!

preppy bangles

I just saw these adorable bracelets on Henri Bendel's website and had to share.

Too cute, right??! And not too pricey either! I'm contemplating getting the pink and green ones of course!

P.S. I'll post my pictures from St. Maarten soon!
