Fingerprint Jewelry
Love the idea of fingerprint jewelry. Have you seen it? So cute for a mom, bride-to-be, etc.
When you order, you are sent a "mold kit" that is easy to use and you send back in a pre-paid envelope. it's imprinted in silver and your keepsake is made!
There are different versions available, multiple charm necklaces, monogrammed charms, etc. There's even a mold for an imprint of your dog's nose!
Available through these two great Etsy sights:
So cute! Put a little one-of-a-kind charm in your back pocket.

A Dash of Paprika
So it's really kinda burnt orange...paprika sounds more decorator-y. That being said, a little goes a long way toward warm and cozy fall decor.

It's Baaaack
The J. Crew "Bubble" necklace is back. Now, I have some history with this necklace. When it came out a couple of years ago it was one of the first "bib" necklaces around. I flip-flopped daily wondering whether to buy it or not. Would I wear it? Is $150 too much? Should I go in half-sies with Jen and share it (ergo my ability to justify purchases.)? Alas, I did not become an owner of the bubble necklace. (Although I must admit that I checked out the stock on E-Bay a time or two.)
Well my friends...It's back. Is it a sign? The good (or bad) news is it only comes in RED or BLACK. Not really feeling those two colors.
So for now, I will keep some extra $ in my back pocket.

The Ol' Denim shirt
We stil love the ol'denim shirt...or maybe do we love it again? Either way it's a definite staple in our full-of-basics wardrobe.
I own this one from Madwell. I wanted it to be a bit more rugged this time.
J Crew has a couple of styles and fabric weights to choose from...
They even have them at H&M for $19.50
or Target for $22.99
There are a million ways to wear it...

This is how you wear it with denim..
Unlike this...
I crack myself up...:)
Get yourself a new denim shirt this fall...
A little wardrobe staple to keep in your back pocket.

Love/Hate: Ikea
I took a little trip to Ikea to buy a Billy Bookcase for my closet. My wired shelving came right out of the wall last week...which I didn't really like anyway cuz things fall through it.
I was hoping my closet will now look a little like this...well, ok, at least more organized
I'm expecting to feel a little "celebrity-ish" when I put my purses
handbags on a shelf...
This is how my visit went....
The store was under construction-like it isn't a maze ANYWAY!
I had to tackle this, which is hard enough without any construction!
Couldn't find one of these guys to help me....
...and my sentiments exactly when I finally got home and had to put the darn thing together...
I'll keep you posted on my snazzy new closet addition.
