3 things: accessories

rings. watches. scarves. bracelets...
okay, so another flaw of mine is not being much of an "add- on" type of girl, but i must admit here in the past year or so, i have some trusted pieces that i wear all the time and some that i wish i had.
with that being said, let me show you what i wear and what i want!!!





these are my trusted pieces of jewelry. the ones i wear quite often(if not every day). i'd like to share with you exactly what they are and why i choose to wear them.
the first one on my list is my big butterfly ring(this a stock image that i stole). my ring is a fairly large bronze butterfly that i love wearing just for the fun of it. i have always, always been obsessed with butterflies and it just makes me happy.
the second one you see is a pandora charm bracelet. they are amazingly fun to create(if you have the money since each charm ranges from 25-700 dollars). i was lucky enough to receive one as a gift by my son's grandparents and they put a charm for each of my boys and a spacer on it for me and then for holidays and birthdays they've been adding charms and it's filling up quite quickly. although, to be honest, i wish they would have let me pick ou
t my charms since we have very different tastes in everything, but still, it was very thoughtful and generous of them to get me something so unique.
last, i have a spider necklace(and i must say mine is way better than the one you see. my spider necklace is encrusted the whole way, through and through with 1/4 carat black diamonds and 1/4 white diamonds and way more unique looking than said piece from stock image). i sound like i'm bragging(and i am to a certain extent). i love, l
ove, love this necklace, but sadly, i have broken two different chains wearing it and one broke tonight, so i retired spidey until i can find a good, strong chain to hold my "bling". i get so many compliments on how beautiful and strange this piece is and i think it just fits my personality. it also means a lot to me because it came from a former friend of mine. i think we would still be friends, but i had to break ties due to him being an addict and a dealer, but i wear it and it reminds me that maybe one day, like me, he'll find strength to turn his life around.
so, there you have my staples, and now, for the fun of it i'll show you 3 of the things i'd like to own or would like to currently wear.





so, these are my top 3 want/wish i wore.
first, is a stock image of a watch, but sadly, it's the closest looking one to the watch i really want. the one i'm drooling over is a sailor jerry original watch which goes for a whopping 85.00 and is way, way out of my range(maybe for my 30th birthday, anyone?!? hint, hint, nudge, nudge). i just love the brown leather and the simplicity of it, yet it looks classy and is so my style and i would wear the shit outta that watch.
second, i posted a scarf. i wish i wore a scarf more often. they come in so many different styles and colors and there are so many different ways to wear them. they can go with dresses or jeans and tees and they are so cool, but i always forget to don one when i'm leaving my house. oh, well. maybe i should leave myself a reminder by the door. i have this really cute piano design scarf and it's super funky and i really like it but once again, i forget to wear it.
and last, i have posted a pandora ring from their ring upon ring collection. i'm not the kind of girl who wears rings. my fingers are slightly chubby and i always have unpolished nails, so i don't bother, but these rings are so classy and simple that i'm sure i would wear it all the time.
so, there you have my 3 things for the week. i had so much fun playing again and i look forward to seeing what joanna and sarah have posted for their 3 things.

  1. I love scarves! And rings!

    I wish I still had some style... I feel like I'm getting sucked into "mommy mode" these days.

    I'm so glad you're having fun with 3 Things! Love you.
