Life's Beauties


I love vintage jewelry.  Especially if it's directly from family.  My mother in law gave me this broach that was Aunt Rosie's.  I've never met Aunt Rosie, but from the things I hear she was amazing. 
Can we also talk about how Blair Waldorf and Chuck Bass give me goosebumps?!
I'm just now catching up on the last few episodes of Gossip Girl and I just can't handle the suspense of if they're going to get together or not. I literally keep squealing.
Although I'm still choosing Vera Wang wedding dress number 1.  Your thoughts?
(Shirt J.Crew, Button-up J.Crew, Shorts Forever21, Tights Target, Shoes H&M)

Wanna know what else makes me squeal?  My hubs is dancing/bouncing around the house to his beats (with headphones on so I can watch GG). All the while, Swiffering the floor.  I love my man.

  9. You have such a cute cool style, very British street style here (you look like the kind of girl I envy walking down the high street in London or Manchester when I go shopping there) The brooch is lovely and even better that it is antique and came from Aunt Rosie :)

    Your husband sounds very sweet :)
