I want my bit about jewelry from yesterday to have it’s own post. I really want to encourage wearing things that are meaningful to you because it really does brighten my day.
I typically over accessorize and you might miss these gems on me since I’m over gemmed typically, but I always wear something from 3 very special people: my mamacita, my dad and my dear Aunt who is like another mom.
- The Cartier watch was a college graduation gift from my dad and his girlfriend, his girlfriend worked at Cartier at the time and I’m so happy and blessed to have it. I wear it close to everyday and it feels really nice to have something so kind of regal.
- The 99 ring is so special to me, it’s from my dear mamacita. My high school’s class rings were really expensive and we weren’t poor but didn’t have like extra extra, so I really thought it was a waste of money for a class ring. When the deadline to order came and went my mom felt pretty sad I didn’t have a h.s. momento so she went to I believe it was mandee’s and bought this ring for me…which is so precious and sweet it makes me tear up just thinking about it…BUT also funny! I don’t know if you recall but high school rings are given out your JUNIOR year in h.s. so I actually graduated in 2000, when I told her this she responded, “Well, that’s just so confusing! It’s the thought, babycita!” which makes me love it more b/c it’s cute with the funny 🙂 and while no one I know from h.s. wears their class rings I wear my special erred one almost everyday.
- The silver circle dangle bracelet is from my other mom, she is the nicest most beautiful, grateful, giving, kind and STYLISH woman (this lady has been wearing leopard since I can remember), I love this bracelet from her b/c it’s a tad bold and noisy b/c it jingles and the combination reminds me of her attitude and fashion sense.
When I look down I smile b/c these things remind me of how lucky I am to be so so so loved.
