Take a look at a few of my top favorites.

Mother of Pearl and Black Lacquer Circular Pendant

Gold Butterfly Stretchy Disco Belt

Gold Filigree Teardrop Pendant

Gold and Amber Rhinestone Ring


Gold Wire 1960's Ring


One of my favorite things to do is to, go through my grandmother's jewelry and find unique, antique, vintage pieces. I find that I love them so much more than items bought at a major retail store. I love one of a kind items that no one else has. That's what brought me to Frippery Vintage. They are an online store that sells vintage jewelry for reasonable prices. I wanted to share their website with you and hope you find something you love too.

What Tickles My Fancy....

What are some things that make you happy? I get happy over new shoes and a new handbag, like any other girl would...but I want to know what else makes you happy? 
This week while going through old photos, I found a few things that make me so happy and I wanted to share them with you.
Such as....


My daughter in her first year of dance..
The tutu and the ballet slippers are too cute..is it bad that I used to pinch her little buns when she was in her leotard??? She was just so stinking cute...


I remember when I used to help out backstage...it was kinda a nightmare, getting all the girls ready and  feathers in place..but now that she's older and doesn't need me backstage...I miss it


Watching my son play sports and cheering him on makes me not only happy but proud..


Remembering this little red bow that my daughter couldn't go without, she insisted on wearing it everyday..I still have it


Remembering my grandfather and the last Christmas we spent together .he loved his funny hats..



My son Jack and his love for his spider, "Webster"
(yes, he's creepy!)


Charlie and his dimples..there are no words..



Some other items that make me happy are...



The Crown + Glitter "Love" necklace
Rose Gold Cursive Love Necklace
The VK Collection Pranvera Necklace

This Shabby Apple tulle skirt makes 
me very, very happy!

I love finding charms necklaces or charms for my daughters charm bracelet..
I hope to keep adding to it so she will think of me when she wears it
(maybe I do that because I lost my mother so young)???

Shabby Apple Cupcake Charm Necklace.
Every year I make cupcakes for my daughter's birthday...pink ones with pink frosting:)

Stripes always make me happy

And buying from a website that donates some of their proceeds to a good cause, that also makes me happy..

Benevolent Jewels Color block scarf is one of my summer favorites, and proceeds go towards helping the Barrio Dogs
I love that!

What a tough week it has been. Losing a loved one is never easy and sadly, I have done it more than one person should have too. It's funny though..the feelings that come after someone close to you dies. I often feel like I gain a little more perspective in what life should be about and what I want to teach my kids. Such as, not "sweatin the small stuff." Another thing that is tough when someone special in your life dies, I notice that I appreciate little things that, that person enjoyed more. My grandfather loved to watch and feed birds..he would sit outside all day and just watch and listen to the different birds sing. Yesterday, while outside with my kids, I noticed there is a family of birds in one of my trees and I just sat and listened to them sing for a minute and couldn't help to think of my grandfather. There was no video game noise, or Disney channel commercials playing...just peace. Maybe I am just crazy, but in that moment, I felt happy and content. 
Anyway, I know I don't write much when I blog..I think its because often times I feel like I have a boring day-to-day life like everyone else..but I just wanted to share that. 
So thanks for reading:)

Sorry for my absence the last few days. My grandfather, who is very dear to me, passed away. I will be back Monday. Thank you for all the kind comments on my instagram...I truly appreciate it.
