I Crave Delicate Gold Necklaces

Monday, June 13th, 2011 | 70 Comments

There was one other thing I bought this weekend!

A short, simple gold necklace + pendant!

Suddenly I really wanted one! I used to only like my long necklaces. Rosaries and such. Or something thick and flashy. Chunky chain links, etc. But lately I wanted something sweet that hit near my collarbone.

I wasn’t sure if it was just a passing fancy so I purchased the star this weekend.

All from style-arena.jp

Best thing about it? $1.50 from Forever21

I know it’ll tarnish soon, won’t last, etc, etc but I need to be sure I really did like the style before buying something pricier. I was thinking under $100 though. Something only gold dipped maybe. I was looking at those Dogeared necklaces at first. Lots of charms to choose from and I tried a few on last weekend.

Something from Jupiter would be a dream! It’s a brand Rinka has worked with for many years. They make simple, sweet pieces mostly. Very beautiful. Rinka has her own line for many seasons now.


Sehr Teuer, ja?! $$$$

But then today I found two gold charms from my childhood!
I’M SO HAPPY! I THOUGHT I LOST THEM!

I knew the chains were long gone. There were two necklaces my grandmother gave me when I was about 13. I was still very, very tom-boyish then and I really didn’t like the necklaces. The chains were extremely delicate and over time I knotted them and broke them. But I can’t believe I held onto the charms! One is a double heart. The other is a kitty.

Now I just need a short gold chain! I’m so happy I found these

Ah so yeah great Monday! I was really productive today, feels good. Though I’m exhausted. So I’ll end it here.

A little bonus shot from today. I wore these two lip glosses all day. Shu Uemura and Melliesh in Baby Doll. I never realized how well they compliment one another. They ended up together in my makeup pouch by coincidence.

I’m wearing Melliesh in Juicy Orange in the above sleepy Sunday pic actually~~ I like Melliesh lip glosses so much

Weekend Look & Some Ranting

Tuesday, May 3rd, 2011 | 57 Comments

Border Dress - H&M
Jacket - Express
Shoes - Airwalk
Necklace - REVROSSA CLARITY
Socks - F21
Bag - Marc by Marc Jacobs

I think Veronica mentioned something about the maxi dress being paired with sneakers & a military jacket which I thought “Oh! That would be a cute laid back weekend look!” It was a little chilly out Saturday. I ran a bunch of errands including getting that issue of Sweet from the market. For once I got to the market early so it was too crowded, haha *was nice.*

Wore some new little floral sneaker socks from Forever 21 and also put on some chopped up Dolly Wink No.01 lashes as accents. It was the first time I had used them in this way and I was really happy with the subtle results.

Shu Uemura eyeshadow. I’ve been really obsessed with this combination lately; mint & gold. I tried it with a pink last week which looked nice too but I just keep going back to mint. Guess it feels extra spring to me. I’ve also had red nails for 2+ weeks. WAS REALLY OBSESSED WITH IT. But the upkeep is especially difficult with red. So Monday I switch it out finally. Now wearing Brisk Blue lol.

I’ve been using Brilliant Brunette and I’m nearly done with my first bottles of the shampoo & conditioner. I took this photo so I could compare it to the one I took before I started using it. My hair looks the same LOL. No change really. Almost looks more blonde at times now LOL. But I’ll wait and take another when I fully complete the bottles. Just saying *disappointed so far LOL*

OK, so, this week has really sucked thus far. I had some mild food poisoning since Sunday night so I worked at home Monday. Then today the trains were running crazy late. After it finally showed & I got on it randomly stops in the middle of nowhere. It was stopped for what seemed FOREVER. I was just repeating Judas and trying to catch up on comment replies so I didn’t notice for a while. The conductor comes through and says a sewer main busted and flooded the tracks so we couldn’t move forward. They reversed all the way to the previous stop which is a dual stop for both commuter trains and the metro/subway (yeah it’s complicated and we have multiple modes of train transportation.) Anyway LONG 2 HOUR STORY SHORT I finally got back home and worked from home again. Which is frustrating because VPN is so slow to work on. But I did myself a favor yesterday and copied off the files I needed to work offline. Soooo glad I did that. Ah but my digestive tract is still all asdfjkl; so fml & this week
