Baby Mammas!

April 23, 2010 by

Nothing is more important in this world than all these baby mammas.  Either you have one, know one, or are one yourself.  Its that time again and I’ve rounded up a few things that I think would be too cool to honor them for all they are:  BADASS.

  1. Personalized Mom M&Ms – my boyfriend Ben did this for his dad’s 60th birthday and ever since then, I just think it is the neatest thing–especially for a mom.  Chocolate + personalized for mom’s day= eaten.
  2. Locket on Etsy – when in time did I decide that lockets weren’t cool anymore???  As far as I’m concerned, as locket with your baby’s pic inside is one of the most touching things.  And your mom is sure to look retro wearing it.
  3. House Slippers  on Etsy– any time Mommy says got get her slippers, she means it.  These really command attention.
  4. Jewelry Box – every girl, every mom needs one or ANOTHER one of  these.  But it has to be beautifulness !
  5. Zale’s Stackable Birthstone Bands – how cute would it be to get mom a band for one or all of her kids?   I loooove this.   Mostly for myself.  One for mom, one for me 🙂  Also, women love jewels.
  6. Mamma’s Marg Glass – a happy Mom = happy house.  ‘nough said.
  7. Mothers day wine glasses on Etsy – these are hand painted and just plane creative.  A little piece of change to spend, but I think every mom I know out there is worth it.

Keep Calm, Keep Calm, Keep Calm

April 14, 2010 by

So everybody and their dog or cat for that matter has most likely seen the Keep Calm and Carry On posters, right?  If you haven’t, what bridge have you been living under?  Anywho, I like the motto because I’m the type of person that has been known to inch towards the stressed out, anxiety filled side.  What.  Here’s a few items that have the motto that you can incorporate into your more day to day life.  My personal fav is #3, the band-aids.

  1. Wisteria, Keep Calm Tote
  2. Paper Source, Keep Calm and Carry On Water Bottle
  3. Paper Source, Keep Calm and Carry On Bandages
  4. Avenue B’s Etsy Shop, Keep Calm and Carry On Pendant

Things I Love Under $10.00

March 15, 2010 by

I think the title speaks volumes here, but there are some great deals and steals that should scooped up FAST. I mean, ruffles, springy color, and fun accessories… all under a 10 spot. Wow, now that’s what I call a bargain.

  1. Forever21, Ruffle Knit Top – I was gifted this at my birthday time and I LOVE it. Perfect under a bright cardi while its still chilly and perfect alone in the warmer weather.
  2. Old Navy, Jersey Tote– Perfect for carrying books, carrying groceries or carrying as a purse. Soft as a baby’s bottom and dirt cheap!
  3. Walmart, Olivia T Thong Sandals– Who doesn’t need a $10.00 girl pop of pink in the form of a sandal for a neutral spring outfit?!?
  4. Walmart, Island Thong Sandals– These shoes were made for walkin! I wear a pair of these faux crocs every year when we Tipsy girls spend all damned day long walking miles upon miles antique shopping in April. No blisters, no nothing… like walking on air.
  5. Forever21, Raw Turquoise Pendant– This necklace falls right in like with the jewelry trends for fall combining the “hottest color” and the mineral look for a very minimal price.
  6. Walmart, Norma Kamali Women’s Draped Jersey Tank – Beautiful draping that could work for officewear or a night on the town.. and UM $8!
  7. Forever21, Metal and Turquoise Wood Bracelet– This is a $6 statement all over your wrist. Style, style, style.
  8. Walmart, Sophia Patent Thong Sandals – Instead of your usually pop of red shoe… how about try sunshine yellow and for $10.00 it’s worth the risk!

What’s Old is New

March 12, 2010 by

So I’ve been on a cleaning kick here lately. SCHOCKING I know, but I ran across an old jewelry box the other day and this is what I found…

Aren’t these cute???? Apparently I had an obsession with stackable rings in high school, and I have fallen in love with them all over again.

LADIES, the lesson here is that you need to go clean out your old jewelry boxes STAT. (I know you have one somewhere…)
