January Girl Jewelry - State Necklace Charm $20

this one is probably my favorite:) - and finally I love the cheapest of something;)

i don't wear jewelry often...2 rings, one of which is my wedding ring and normally only one necklace. The one I wore on our wedding day wedding:) - see below.

Hattie Rex - no longer available:(

i've always wanted to step outside my jewelry...box (PUN intended;) and try those chunky necklaces. BUT I feel like they're kinda trendy...would I get enough wear out of them?...arg arg argity arg. - see below.

Piperlime - Athenee Short Necklace $128 and  Geometric Shield Necklace $28

add that all up and you have one good chunk of my freaking house payment (my house is teeny tiny;)...have I mentioned - ARG!!!

and at the moment we're on a strict budget, which I've BLOWN by abouttttt...a lot. I'm ashamed. Kinda;) BUT the deals were TOO good to pass up. Can I say that? More details to come on that after the weekend:)

POINT: these necklaces, found via ETSY:):), are pretty quirky and I always thought it'd be cute to represent WI with some cute chest candy. Um. You know what I mean;)

 The Folk - California State Love Necklace $28

Sweet Sauce Lab - Custom Prideful Wisconsin Ceramic State Necklace $40 

Eruckman - Texas Hand Stamped Personalized Necklace $45 

Ninotchka Goods - Custom Necklace Any State $49

house of harlow - necklace.

at the moment I'm still on the search for the perfect necklace for my supa' classy Saturday Night Reception dress. This.Could.Be.IT!!

but for $130...arg. FRICK! Something I could keep my eyes on till closer till the wedding...hope for a sale and if nothing else...maybe we'll have $130 laying around!?:)

House of Harlow 1960

pretty. rich.

for this post, I'll start with the point and then lose my way;)

POINT: the jewelry. I have my reception dress. I love it. I think it's perfect but now it needs the perfect jewelry. Classic ME, I jumped the gun on the jewelry and since I took a picture of myself in the get up and then emailed it to all my accounts, so that I could look at it...study it...EVERY day...I'm starting to think it needs a change in jewelry. It wasn't me.

insert - Erin Hearts Court - who has now introduced me to Kindred Stones - which I now...after getting super excited about finding the Perfect jewelry and then starting this post and THEN looking up prices...realize is WAY out of my price range. Frick.

i have a girl crush on each one of these pretty ladies!!

and I want that middle slouchy top.

and, as you know, I love red hair.

i'll never wear a sweater without a long necklace..EVER again.

and here's the necklace combination that I love and think may be perfect for me and my dress. Now to save $400;) BUT luckily F21 has some supa' cheap alternatives!

and so I think...

this hasn't been tweeked to perfection but these are my thoughts for my BParty. I feel like I'm getting closer to what I want...little by little.

i've got the tshirt.

skirt couldddd be on the way shortly...

now for the feets and the jewels:)

Target

Forever21

Payless

want it sunday.

another adorably simple outfit by Kendi Everyday. The shoes are what drew me to this picture!:)

check them out at Payless for only $26.99:)

I only worry about that 4" heel. Because I'm already 5'7-1/2", I like to keep the heel at 3 or under. IF I can help it. Otherwise Jacob feels a bit like the lady in our relationship. Understandable;)

and something that's not new to anyone else but new to me...these sort of, pendant necklaces. Where they have nothing going on but the big something hanging in the middle, with a longggg chain. I needs me one of those:)

again, inspired by Kendi Everyday - love her:)

SIDE NOTE: how freaking cute is that little fox tank she's wearing?!?!

Found and it's out of stock. Dang - Modcloth.

a few options I found through Forever21 - best and best priced place to look!!

yep. I'm ready for our MOA trip. SO beyond ready:)

want it saturday.

i'm doing a LOT of online browsing today...so bare with me.

i'm sure I may have posted this before cause it looks familiar...or maybe it just feels familiar cause it includes one of my favorite naughty words;)

in any case. A gentle reminder that I love this:)

Refinery29

etsy sunday.

i'm not sure yet what jewelry I'll be wearing with my wedding dress but I have been leaning towards some layered golds. I just received one from my parents for Christmas that I LOVE and of course from Etsy.

these 2 are also from Etsy and I think they're something to add to the jewelry collection wedding or not.:)

Verabel

UP Pockets Full of Lockets $44

DOWN The Tiniest Gold Initial Necklace $24

etsy wednesday.

Rusty Charm $18

Karin's Tree Top Shop $125

most of the time Etsy is amazing...well, the majority of the time. BUT the worst part about it, besides the amount of time I spend surfing through the site during a work day...is that SO many things are SO close to super cheap that it makes you think you need Wayyyy too much stuff.

like the above 2 items. I DO need them. I'm convinced.

win me:)

i'm trying to win this veryyyy pretty necklace by Simag! Super cute and super simple and me loves some gold:)

check it out here on Paper n' Stitch to compete with me!!!

adorable. Not sure if it's the actual necklace that I want or if me loving the way it was photographed that leaves me wanting it...and I think maybe I'd settle for just a picture of it.

from Prismera Design, for $45, it's out of my price range but it's in the running. I'd like to layer up my necklaces..IF I wear necklaces for the wedding and this would look great:)
