a doozy of druzy…

I’ve long been crushing on this druzy ring from the oh-so-fab Melissa Joy Manning.  But alas, I can’t bring myself to part with the $1k it would take to make it my own…instead, I’ve got my eye on these equally as lovely but much more palatable baubles.

I could use a shot of lovely on this Monday…how about you?  Something small to brighten my day.

How’s your day so far?

Etsy Finds: Art Wall


I love the simple repetition of the black and white art, framed in mis-matched perfection of this hallway and think it would be perfect in just about any home.  Large or small wall, nook or entire room – it seems like the perfect collection to start today.

Etsy Finds: Vintage Glass

via Jinxxy’s Junk

I have an affinity for vintage glass.  Magnifying lenses, apothecary jars, vintage barware…my obsession knows no bounds.  Do you love it as much as I do?

via Whimsical Vintage

I would love to drink wine from these beauties often!

Perhaps the centerpiece I’ve been searching for?

A glass shade on a gold lamp…I’m thinking perfection.

I’ve been collecting these for years.  I adore their pre-loved look to adorn a windowsill or bookshelf in a modern home.

My sea salted caramel sauce would look amazing in these glasses!

The perfect perch for a booktop display.

Etsy Finds: Peachy Keen

via Moondog Cottage

I’m crushing hard on all things peach at the moment.  I love this softer side of orange – just the right touch of feminine + vintage for my taste.via Pretty and Pleasing

The natural fade here is stunning…

via Vintage Alcove

I’m thinking shoe clips to update my ballet flats?  You?

via Fabuless Find

Just a touch of peach…lovely.

A simple, streamlined skirt.  Add a heather gray tee and loads of gold baubles.

via Pink Milk Vintage

Mmmm.  These colors are so soft and lovely together.  A push pin project perhaps?

Closet Craving: Backpacks

via Makr Carry Goods

As the stores are starting to stock supplies galore, denim in tall stacks and the school across from me is getting spruced up in all it’s glory – it can only mean that the dreaded end of summer is near!  Back to school is just around the corner.

And even though I won’t be headed back to school this fall (or any fall ever again:) I can’t help but be tempted by all of the great grown-up backpacks taking over the fashion scene.

via Barneys

I love this look for a casual about town day…you?

I love them in leather, in canvas, even in nylon.

Etsy Finds: Office Accessories

via Tipple & Snack

With back-to-school rapidly approaching, I thought today would be a good time to be inspired by some grown-up vintage desk accessories.  Some are practical…

Some add a touch of whimsy…

And some are just plain cool to look at.

Inspired By: Painting to Outfit

I’ve been admiring various oil paintings lately. And when I ran across this beauty on eBay, I was particularly smitten with the to die for colors.  Natrually, I did what any girl does and turned it into an outfit that would transition perfectly from summer into fall.

Anorak; Shirt; Skirt; Boots; Silver Leather Bracelets; Black Leather Wrap Bracelet.

What do you think?  Better left to the art world, or as art brought to life?
