temptation

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?!  Why, oh why, do I always stumble across these beauties after they have already sold?!  DYING over this Art Deco bypass ring (sold by Dover Jewelry).  The thing that upsets me most (because who am I kidding, I would never have been able to afford this ring!) is that there are no archival photos online.  I would have loved to see this ring from different angles!

modern minimal

How gorgeous is this black diamond cluster necklace by Ten Thousand Things?!  Still obsessing over black diamonds and yellow gold.  And I love the cluster of gold rings.  This piece is minimal but a showstopper!

love of my life

Today marks my husband's and my 10 year anniversary!  I must say we have made a pretty spectacular life together. This man loves me even at my worst and inspires me to be my best, and that is a rare gift.  And for that, these last 10 years have been the best of my life.  He doesn't like the overly used statement, "I married my best friend," but I really truly have!

negligee

Recently stumbled across the image of this beauty and have been enjoying looking at different styles of negligee necklaces online.  There is something about 2 parallel pendants hung at varying heights that has really caught my attention.

10 years of love and adoration

Many are focused on buying gifts for Valentine's Day but my thoughts are on my husband and my 10 year anniversary next week!  I have some thoughts on what I am getting him and I know he has a master plan worked up already for me, but here's a few things I wouldn't mind getting for this very important anniversary...
1) Art Nouveau locket- Because placing 2 photos in the locket instantly turns it into a sentimental gift and wins you husband of the year!
2) Small diamond pendant- Because it's your daughter's birthstone and what a great way to remind her of what your love brought into this world... and because who doesn't love getting diamonds for an anniversary?!
3) Gardenia perfume- Because the smell of gardenia reminds her of the flowers on your wedding day.
4) Forget me not ring- Because Forget-me-nots are the symbolic flower for the month you were married (September) and your wife got them tattooed on her on your honeymoon!

fan necklace

Really loving these fan style necklaces.  They are a great way to get a bigger impact around the neckline while still having a dainty chain.  I love this necklace with its mix of gold and aveturine!

shot through the heart

Loving these arrow necklaces I have been seeing around as a Valentine's Day gift idea!  Would be such a good layering necklace.  I especially love the ones with a hint of sparkle.
