VeraMeat

If you ever were to look at my jewelery collection you would find gold acorns, wiener dog rings,  seahorse earrings, and much more like that; so it seems only natural to absolutely love everything from the company VeraMeat. Rings, necklaces, and earrings all are hand-crafted in precious metals and provide a little bit of quirk to the average outfit. Prices Range from  $34-$240.

monday color: mustard seed

This week we are going for color of mustard. A great color for the impending fall, it has been seen all over the runways and will definitely be a strong color in '09.

Monday Color: Minty Fresh

For the first Monday color post we have fresh mint colors ranging from the blue tones to the green. What I love about mint is that it can add an instant amount of sophistication to any home(or outfit) without being overbearing.

Thursday's Etsy Find

Kate McKenzie - Shop

When looking for a wedding ring I knew I wanted something unique but not ridiculous. Not really a fan of big gaudy jewels, although great at times, I needed something I could wear day to day. That's when I found the bow ring by Kate McKenzie. Mine was purchased with 3 diamonds and is absolutely perfect (pictured above).

All of her pieces are very original and have a cute edge to them. Including a
collection inspired by cereal and hardware. More pieces at her website.
