I have been stalking a certain etsy shop. I love vintage jewelry and find it a great way to add to my collection. I think the history of someone else's piece just adds to my cherishing each new treasure. Today so many people are selling their old jewelry to be melted down-what a crime. The workmanship counts for so much more. Why not get the clasp repaired? Why not reset the stones into something new? Just saying!
Here is the shop that I have been looking at: http://www.etsy.com/shop/slapmefabulous?ref=seller_info
I love this runway necklace which would look stunning against a black shell with a black shawl collared sweater on top.
I also think this vintage leaf bracelet is a classic anyone could love.
The shop name is pretty funny too!
BUT here is what I really want. Will you buy it for me? xoxoxoxoxo (did that convince you?) :)

I am waiting for the price to go down a smidge before I take the leap. I think this bracelet should be my Christmas gift from me, to me. Do you like it?
More Later,

ReplyDeleteAh, I wondered what happened to that golden bracelet. Clicked on the link and the bracelet wasn't in the shop ... but oh what a shop it is. LOVE IT !
ReplyDeleteHave to agree with about the runway necklace, quite a eye catcher and the outfit you described it with ... wow, really knock-em-out gorgeous.
