Where did you get those????

Ok, ok, so I have been holding out on you. Well, not intentionally but I just can't seem to remember to talk about this.
Weird I know. I'm all about promoting my BeachBody and everyone's homeusinesses but, for some stupid reason I haven't talked about this one.

I get asked about my jewelry all the time. Most of the time I'm wearing at least one piece from my own collection. Yes, the collection I have in my boutique. The one I neglect to talk about.
I think it's time I did.
So, here we go.
I'm going to show you a couple of things that I have in the shop right now. It changes all the time and you can access it 24/7 so if there is something you are looking for and you don't see it, let me know. I'll see if I can source it for you.
So lets get started with a couple of them most commented on pieces.

Go to Mrs G's Treasures

This is my favorite ring so far. It's called the Jezebel Celadon and honestly, I am just in love with it. As it so happens, it's on sale down from $69 to $38 until the 15th of May!

Go to Mrs G's Treasures

These earrings are called Genevieve. Gorgeous and classic. They are on sale this week too! Hmm, I seem to have put all my favorites on sale!

Ok so that's just two of hundreds of pieces you can find in my boutique. Honestly, there is something there for every taste! 

Daily sales, contests, ways to save even more on these designs. It's all there. So why hadn't I said anything about it before?   I was just having too much fun playing with the store. 

Oh, that's the other thing,

the opportunity is awesome and, NO COST. I swear. NO BUY IN. You don't pay a thing to open the store or to stock it. I make a nice little sum and I've never been out of pocket at all on it. EVER. 

Anyway, that's another story. 

Go check it out and see what you think. Sign in and see what I have to offer in the way of lovely jewelry and accessories.

I'd love to know what you think and

Accessories, accessories, accessories!

How cute are these!

You know what bugs me the most?  When I have the perfect outfit picked out, my hair and makeup is just the way I want it, and then....I have an earring emergency.  Ok, so that sounds a little silly but, the wrong accessory can really ruin the look.  Fortunately there is a cure.  Etsy is a huge help!  One of my favorite stores right now is The Shopping Lounge. This little store has some of the cutest things ever!  Nice pieces at insane pricing.  There are several things I just have to have and soon! 

Do yourself a favor and check out these previously adored items. 

I know many of you go to second hand stores and yard sales.  For people like me that do not have the time or ability to do so, this little store pulls the best items from these places and showcases them all for you.  Gotta love it!

Ok, to follow along with my jewelry fetish....

By now you can tell that I am a total jewelry lover.  So, where on earth can I find amazing vintage pieces at totally affordable prices?  A good friend of mine turned me on to an etsy store today that is fantastic!  The Shopping Lounge is just WOW!  You have got to check it out!  There are several things I am seriously in lust with right now.  Let's see if you beat me to them.

Another store that is fueling my fetish is Amula Designs.  This gorgeous little bird's nest necklace is just one of the many hand made designs you will find there.  Can't say enough about this piece.  It's just precious!
The sparrow reminds me of the tattoo designs that I love so much.


Speaking of tattoos...yes, I have them.  The world may not see them due to careful placement but I am seriously considering changing that.  I have been totally obsessed lately with both modern and vintage pinups.  Most of the vintage images I have found are not tattooed.  50's culture just didn't incorporate tattoos on women.  The modern versions, however, are a totally different story.  Some of the models are heavily painted while others are just adorned with one or two.  I think I tend to want to be somewhere in the middle.  Shoulder pieces, especially florals, are what I seem to be most infatuated with. That and the pinup girl tattoo itself.  I've been finding so many fantastic versions!  One of my new favorite sources is Atomic Bombshell magazine. The graphics are phenomenal.  Yes, it is more of a "gentlemans magazine" if you catch my drift, but it is really gorgeous.  If you aren't squeamish about women in various states of undress, the style and the attitude are amazing. No, I don't "get it for the articles".  I actually love the photos and the ads.  Every vintage, rockabilly, retro thing you could want is somewhere in the pages.  Volume 3 is now in presale.  I was thrilled that the back cover of volume 2 was a full page add for my favorite hair flower store, Belle Blossoms.

About the Artist

So, today I plan to check out The Shopping Lounge ( they have a fb page by the way) and to start making my wish list. I have a fantastic little dress that I need some accessories for. This is the About the Artist dress from Modcloth.  It comes in several other colors and I have linked the image to the site so click away!

I think my little bird nest will be so cute.  I was also thinking a really cute red polkadot shoe....what do you think?

Anybody else in love with vintage brooches?

I don't see many women, younger women, wearing brooches today.  I really think it's a shame.  These gorgeous pieces of jewelry are so versatile that I really feel they are completely under rated.  We may be talking about your grandmother's jewelry, but we don't have to wear them the way grandma did.

Here is part of my collection.

I find these little gems on ebay, tophatter, and etsy, not to mention yard sales and second hand stores.  Yes, I wear them the traditional way but there are so many other ways to wear them. I love them on a ribbon around your neck or on a head band.  They add sparkle to a belt and they look good on a bag!  One of my favorites was my oldest daughter's prom.  I gave her an "updo" then pinned a brooch in her hair.  It took quite a few bobby pins to secure it and was a little bit of an architectural feat in order to keep it balanced but it looked amazing! I know I have a photo somewhere but it eludes me at the moment.
Another way to wear them is to incorporate them in
to your other jewelry.  This piece was made for me by Brian, my best friend's husband.  I am totally in love with it!  The brooch as pendant is fantastic! (Not to mention the incredible chainmaille work he did.)

Adding a jump ring or just using the pin on the back you can change the look of almost anything by adding one of these beauties!
So next time you are at a yard sale or in a thrift store and a brooch catches your eye, pick it up!  They add bling to ordinary things like curtain ties, or even shower curtain clips!  Be creative and have fun!
