I've Jumped on the Bubble Necklace Bandwagon!

I promised myself I wasn't going to do it...but yes, I have jumped on the super popular bubble necklace bandwagon. I found a couple of them {knockoffs} at the local flea market and the rest I ordered on eBay...from China.  I loved that I got each of them for less than $10, including free shipping!

J Crew made these necklaces popular awhile back and they originally sold for $150.  Right now they have this necklace on sale for $99.99.  Y'all please...I love J Crew, but I just can't see myself spending this much on a necklace that might be out-of-style next week.

I think that my new $8 necklaces look the same as the expensive ones and I have no problem wearing my necklaces from China!  You can find some cute bubble necklaces in bright colors on eBay here.

Thank you for visiting with me today and y'all have a wonderful week!

Monogrammed Cuteness from the Pink Giraffe

I'm obsessed with my new monogrammed tissue box cover from The Pink Giraffe!  I love the geo print, the pink, and the green.

Eliza at The Pink Giraffe was so sweet to send me this preppy addition to my pink and green guest bath.  I love that it is monogrammed on both sides!

Eliza offers monogrammed linen covers or one like mine--galvanized metal.  You can choose your pattern, background color, and monogram style/color.

Of course it goes perfect with my Lilly shower curtain...

I'm also obsessed with starfish and seahorses right now!

And monkeys...but I've been obsessed with monkeys for years!

Pink...green...it never stops!

I finally hung the fabulous Lilly print my BF Joy gave me...more pink and green on the wall entering the bath area!

Visit Miss Eliza at The Pink Giraffe.  She has cute personalized loot for every occasion.  I love her monogrammed chandelier shades.  I bought my first shades from her back when I lived in Mississippi and can't wait to receive the pink ones she's creating for me now.  Be on the lookout for that post!

Amanda and her groom Quinn were married in the Greensboro, Georgia United Methodist Church.

Their reception was held at Reynold's Plantation...this is one of the stops on my bucket list.  I drool when I drive through this small community on my way from Augusta to Warner Robins.  Yes, I need a couple of nights at the Ritz in Greensboro!

I love Amanda's fabulous wedding gown and adore those gold cocktail-length bridesmaid dresses!  Picture perfect!

How sweet is Amanda's bouquet with brooches that belonged to each of her grandmothers?!

The magazine features a gift guide...and of course, I have my faves...The monogrammed button down...oh-so popular now.

Since I've Been Gone...

Here's some of the outfits I wore while I was in Georgia visiting with Mama.

This is a black Ralph Lauren vest I wore with jeans and an ivory turtleneck.  The black tote is Ralph Lauren as is the orange tote scarf.  Adding more 'bit' to the outfit, I wore the gold Ralph Lauren bracelet along with my my monogrammed earrings and my Rolex.

I wore this outfit on a prissy day with Mama.  The pocketbook, shoes, and headband are all Ferragamo.  The blouse and cardi are J Crew.  The skirt is very old...I think Talbot's?

This is the reverse side of the Ralph Lauren vest from the first outfit, which I wore with a black turtleneck, camel jeans, and black tote...all by Ralph Lauren.  Comfy monogrammed clogs!  Look for this Ralph Lauren vest to be offered in my "Closet Sale" next Monday!

Another prissy day with Mama...The blouse and cardi are J Crew and I'm not sure where this skirt is from.  The pocketbook and pumps are by Ferragamo.  The earrings are Givenchy, the gold watch is by Rolex, and I wore a monogrammed ring and my Cartier wedding band.

Last Sunday, I wore a red turtleneck and black houndstooth jacket, from Belk's.

I wore a red wool tee, jeans, and a Princess Dianna tartan scarf.  The pocketbook is by Brighton, the ballet flats and 2 silver rings are all Chanel, the wedding band is Cartier, and the bracelet is by Tiffany.

I love this little skirt by Lilly which I wore with a black turtleneck and black Cochni ballet flats.  I carried my black 2.55 Chanel bag and wore silver monogrammed earrings, ring, and necklace, along with my Cartier wedding band and Rolex.  Look for this skirt to be offered in my "Closet Sale" next Monday.

Gucci tote and ballet flats, with a green turtleneck and jeans and a cute monogrammed scarf by Marley Lilly. I wore Tory Burch earrings and my Cartier wedding band.

Double-breasted blazer with the gold monogrammed buttons and a Burberry scarf and tote.

Yesterday I wore red gingham and pearls!  The pearls and cardi are both J Crew.  The ballet flats are by Cochni, the red skinny belt is from Target, the jeans are Ralph Lauren, and the cute little red gingham blouse is from eBay!

I am so blessed to have been able to spend time with my Mama up in Georgia.  Thanks to all y'all who have asked about her.  She is doing fine and we are so grateful to God that we still have her!

I'm spending the day today unpacking and answering e-mails.  I came home with much more loot that I left with and really need to spend the weekend weeding out my closet.  On Monday, I will have a "Closet Sale"...see y'all then!
