ToryBurchMonkeyEarrings1

If you couldn’t tell from yesterday’s post, I’ve been on a bit of an earring kick lately. So much so that I’ve actually added two new pairs over the last week: Tory Burch monkey hoops and petite tassels from J.Crew. Even if I hadn’t mentioned it last week, I’m sure you could tell the monkey earrings were destined to be mine. I talked about them last fall, right after the Tory Burch runway when they were available for pre-order, and again when the full spring jewelry collection was online. I purchased them as my annual “Tax Return Splurge,” so even though they’re wildly indulgent, I don’t feel too bad about spending the money on something so quirky. They’re sturdier than I expected and they do feel a little heavy after wearing them for a full day. The other pair, the J.Crew tassels, were an impulsive purchase this past weekend. We spent Saturday night in Milwaukee and stopped at J.Crew (not surprisingly, their store is larger than the one in Madison). I spotted the earrings on a table display as I was leaving and couldn’t resist. They have a nice weight to them, which I wouldn’t have guessed from the stock photo.

Bauble of the Week

As much as I love gigantic statement earrings, you’ll only see me wear them occasionally. Why? One of my biggest fears is becoming an old lady with droopy earlobes* after wearing them for decades. Thankfully, there are plenty of gorgeous button earrings that pack as much punch as their chandelier cousins. All of the studs featured here are by Gerard Yosca and they’re anything but boring. My favorites are the daisies. They’re the perfect amount of retro chic and would look fabulous with a shift dress this spring. Browse the entire collection of button earrings here and if you also love the daisy earrings, you’ll be smitten with the new Flowerball collection.

*Dave insists that there’s probably a surgery for that. If doctors can fix the earlobes of people who wear plugs, they can probably fix old lady lobes. And if I happen to develop them over time, you bet I’ll be hashtagging #OldLadyLobes on Instagram.

After a six-month hiatus, “Behind the Baubles” is back and I couldn’t be more excited to reintroduce the series to you with my latest jewelry crush: Jet Set Candy. This is the ultimate jewelry-meets-travel collection with wearable keepsakes to commemorate your favorite destinations. The are darling rings, pendants, bracelets, and over 200 charms to choose from, ranging from luggage tags to hookahs to cocktail shakers. Founder Nicole Parker King, a world traveler herself, spared no details when creating these pint-sized souvenirs. Just look at this British candy charm with its brightly colored Smarties! My favorites are the Amsterdam pieces, but only because there isn’t a Brussels luggage tag with a teeny glass of beer!

Whenever a designer incorporates real stones into costume jewelry, I’m sold, especially when it comes to rich blue-greens of chrysocolla and amazonite that remind me of the ocean.

To say I’m obsessed with Lulu Frost’s latest collection would be a bit of an understatement. Each of the Egyptian-inspired tassel pieces are irresistible, but the Eternal Life Tassel Necklace is undoubtedly my favorite of the bunch. The lapis scarab slides up and down the chain to customize the look for your outfit.

I’m challenging myself to get through a backlog I’m challenging myself to get through a backlog of travel photos before we book our next trip. First up, photos of the gothic York Minster. I’m not religious in the slightest but I can’t resist stunning architecture and the opportunity to climb hundreds of cathedral stairs for a city view. This one only had a single rest stop about halfway up the flight of 275 steps for a closeup view of the flying buttresses — and a waiver you had to sign before your ascent to promise you’re healthy enough to make it.

Visiting York earlier this month put us in the Hal Visiting York earlier this month put us in the Halloween spirit. While it claims to be the most haunted place in Europe and is dubbed the city of a thousand ghosts, we only encountered the wire-mesh sculptures of Ghosts in the Gardens (@the_york_bid) and the family of souvenir ghosts I brought home from @yorkghostmerchants.
