Pretty Things.

This may be a lame idea, but humor me.

I read a ton of blogs and I especially love the ones with pictures.  Yesterday, I read a post by Pink Lou Lou and noticed that she had on some gorgeous earrings.  Being the jewelry freak that I am, I asked her where she got them.  That made me think.  I'm super nosey and always want to know where people got the fantastic clothes/shoes/jewelry/purse/accessory that they are rocking.

I've decided to start a series of what jewelry I'm wearing.  I know you're all dying to know the bling of the day.  Here's today:

1.  Earrings: I made them with crystals I bought at AC Moore.
2.  Watch: Michael Kors, purchased on Amazon.
3.  Monogrammed bracelet: Heartstrings, my Aunt sells all of their products. (I also have the matching necklace.)
4.  Ring: Rainbow quartz set in sterling silver, gift from Mommy Dearest.

Is this the lamest idea ever?  Let me know what you think.

Sparkle hearts,

First Time

"I'm so tired of being inspired only when things slip away." 

Ernst by Matt Nathanson {here}

Wondering about the title and the random lyrics?  I've decided to "borrow" the idea from Grey's Anatomy and I am naming all of my blog posts after songs or albums that I like.  (We shall see how long that lasts.  I'm pretty famous for starting things with great intentions, and then somehow, them seem to fall to the wayside.)

I thought this was a fantastic choice for my first post because I'm slightly obsessed with Matt Nathanson, AND because I like this song.  Truth be told, I like the lyrics more than I like the actual music, but never mind that.  His words struck a chord in me and I think it's a good note on which to start this blogging adventrure.  (Too many musical puns for one sentence?  Get used to it.)

So, I hope that you'll follow me on this adventure.  Bear with me.  My topics may be unconventional or quirky or just plain self-serving, but that's the point of blogs, right?  Besides, I've never been accused of being "normal" anyway.

Love and Rockets,
