a way to feel pretty... and a little giveaway

Earrings always make me feel pretty. Moreso than any other jewelry. Why i don't wear a pair every day, I have no idea. I have my standard 3 that are always in and never come out. I think the last time one of them was changed out was over a year ago.

I actually have another hole on the left side that there is no earring in, because it's in an awkward place and hurts when I sleep on it. I did find a very small silver ball that fit in there so nicely and was fine to sleep on but since I couldn't wear the back of the earring to hold it on, i bent it like a nose ring and it just stayed in like that. But it fell out after about 6 months and I haven't had the initiative to get another one yet. I should though. I really like that hole. (i'm well aware of how wrong that sounds lol)



But where oh where did I get these fabuloso earrings? Good question. I was reading my friend Lex's blog one day and realized that she had an Etsy shop where she sold her jewelry. I don't know why I hadn't ever gone to look before, but I did this time. And I found a pair that I just couldn't live without. The first one on this blog.

And then I decided that since I was buying a pair, I should just go ahead and buy another one, since her prices are so reasonable! That would be the third picture. And when I got them in the mail, she had thrown in an extra pair!!!

I absolutely LOVE all of them! They were sooo much prettier when I got them than when I even saw them in the shop, and i thought they were just beautiful there too! I apologize for the b&w but that's the only thing i was feelin when i edited these. The lighting in the bathroom is just awful hahaha!

I loved it all so much that I pretty much emailed her right away and asked her if she could make the jewelry for the wedding that I'm in this May. aaaaaaaand she's totally doing it!!!

I will be getting that this week, maybe even tomorrow! and i will definitely be posting pictures of that soon.
