I’ll integrate this into the site once I find a sweet new three-column Wordpress theme.

Bringing the Past into the Present at Banana Republic

I love this necklace. I tried it on in a store about six weeks ago. Makes you feel like you’re the princess of some small but chic nation-state. Keep waiting for Shop it to Me to tell me it’s on sale.

Sequin Keeps it Real

Never heard of this brand and can’t find a company website. (Google “Sequin jewelry” and you’ll see what I mean.) Loved these bangles from Nordstrom:

Here’s the kicker: you can also buy their stuff from HSN! Way to bring it, Sequin.

What I Bought at the Latest A.V. Max Sample Sale

I didn’t get my act together to post about A.V. Max’s recent sample sale in advance — but here’s what I got!

Everything above was between $5-$15. Insane.

How have you been?

Showstopping Spring Rings at Banana Republic

It’s vaguely annoying to have to ask a salesperson to take a $38 dollar ring out from a display case. But I’ve seen these guys in person, and they’re delicious. They only reason I didn’t buy one is because I couldn’t make up my mind: cherry, or pistachio?

Very Pink, Very Cute Betsey Johnson Bracelet

I tried this one on at Macy’s a few weeks ago. It snaps tightly on its hinge and feels snug around your wrist. And it’s pink!
