If you were a gift (and you SO are), these would be the wrapping you would want. I’m over at momtastic today looking at some delicious statement necklaces. Come take a look for some hints and tips for wearing these lovelies! Share

I am totally smitten by this Julie’s Adorabowls and Jewelry etsy shop. I love the dainty and colorful pieces that aren’t overbearing, but definitely make a statement.

I have to admit I’m sort of losing my mind over this whole line of jewelry. I stumbled upon Oliphant on Eddie Ross’ blog yesterday and I’ve been stalking the site ever since. I LOOOOOVE their use of color. And all the vintage nods in style are just slowly killing me in the best way [...]
