Pretty Pairing

Hello! I was about to ask how your weekend was when I realized that we're already half-way through the week! It's been busy here and I've missed popping in as often as I normally do. So, to pick back up where I left off, we were dealing with my youngest C having violent episodes of yuckiness. The good news? He's doing great; it only lasted 6 hours; we slept through the night and it didn't travel to anyone else. Consequently, we were also able to take a quick trip out of town. My husband had work meetings in Carlsbad and we went with him to visit Carlsbad Caverns. If you haven't heard of them, the caverns are just enormous and beautiful. It had been years and years since I was last there and it was really cool to see the boys react as we hiked down the dark path into the caverns. My husband was taking tons of pictures so maybe I'll be able to share some later in the week. Anyway, I'm back and hopefully able to begin posting again on a regular basis.

Despite the freak hail storm that we traveled through on the way home (!), things are starting to feel pretty summery here. Or perhaps it's just my wishful thinking. At any rate, this tank says summer to me. I think it would make a pretty pair with my little bloom earrings in red.

A Trio of Stripes

Stripes are fun, versatile, and feel just right for spring and summer. For this happy Friday, here is a Trio of Stripes that I love...

Pretty Pairing

Orange and Grey










I decided to try out Polyvore and see if I could come up with my own outfit for a Pretty Pairing. I'm certainly not a fashionista but I had fun pulling in different items. I had orange and gray on the brain because I just added these dangly earrings to my Shop so I decided to play around with that color combo. I like it. And I hope I'm not the only one. :) Anyway, more later on the Orange Rough Cut Flower Earrings and where they are headed.

Pretty Pairing

I've had a really hard time paring down this Pretty Pairing. So I decided to not edit my list. I know, I know. It's because I'm totally biased when it comes to my Charcoal Gray Flower Necklace. I admit it. I simply love this necklace and I think it goes with just about everything...

Charcoal Gray Flower Necklace

I think it could go high style for an evening out... 

Ruche

And I think it would pair nicely with a more casual knit dress...

Garnet Hill

And, of course, it would feel right at home with a feather-light cardi...

I hope you've enjoyed my Pretty Pairing times 3!

Pretty Pairing

I absolutely love this outfit! From the boots to the bag to the neutral palette to the sunglasses to the scarf to the sweater...what's not to love here. In my humble opinion, I think the Heart of Gold Ring would pair quite nicely with this outfit.

Pretty Pairing

Isn't this a fun outfit? I love the colors, those cute jeans, the scarf, the earrings and...well, everything. The shoes might present a bit of a challenge for me but I could sit down and look cute, right? In my ideal world, I'd pair my Winter White Mosaic Flower Ring with this outfit and stylishly embrace the coming colder weather.

Pretty Pairing

Bringing together two vibrant colors like turquoise and red can be daunting; but when it's done well, I really like the two together. This outfit seems to find that good balance. (And doesn't that tunic look like it's softer than soft?) Wouldn't this tunic and scarf pair nicely with the Shimmery Red Blossom Ring? As for earrings, I think these or these would be charming companions. What do you think?

Pretty Pairing

This Perfectly Plum flower ring, elegantly set on a sterling silver band, is a favorite of mine. In the light, its deep plum color lightens to a softer shade. Wouldn't it pair nicely with this leather tote from Madewell? Classically beautiful! And I think it would look lovely up against this little mocha number.

Cranberry Petals and Leaves


The Blossom Ring is now in Frosted Cranberry, available here. I love this color. In addition to being a deep, rich and slightly sparkly color, the name is making me crave a little snack of cranberries. And more fall foliage like what we saw this weekend up in the mountains:


Ahh... I love Fall. Don't you?

Pretty Pairing


I love the color and feminine lines of this Ruffle Dress. Wouldn't it make a pretty pairing with the Golden Days Blossom Ring?  And maybe a cozy cardigan for cool autumn evenings.

Pretty Pairing

I love this Wrap London tunic and cardigan. Wouldn't the Turquoise Blossom Ring be a pretty pairing?

You can find the tunic here and the ring here. Tunic first seen at the lovely Bliss.
Update - the Turquoise Blossom ring has found a new home but can be custom ordered.
