I purchased this ring from Karen Hsiang not longer after featuring her in a “Behind the Baubles” post. Trust me, the sensual curves of her designs are even prettier in person! I’ve been wearing it nearly everyday and I especially adore how it looks stacked with the Cynthia Jones ring below.
Giveaway: Chloe + Isabel Necklace
My favorites from Chloe + Isabel’s Valentine’s Day collection are the dainty sterling silver pieces: heart and arrow rings, mismatched earrings and a delicate arrow necklace. I’m particularly fond of the Cupid’s arrow. It’s romantic without being saccharine and makes for a lovely everyday piece long after Valentine’s Day is over.
And as a little Valentine’s gift for you, one lucky gal will win an arrow necklace of her own! Good luck!
This giveaway is open to U.S. residents.
Behind the Baubles: Jane Pope Jewelry
As many of you know, maintaining blog is a lot of work, but it’s also one of the most rewarding hobbies I’ve ever had. I’m so grateful for the opportunity to “meet” inspirational bloggers and designers on a regular basis and Jane Pope Cooper is no different. Her collection is perfectly imperfect with organic designs and mixed metals (I’m most fond of the lip ring), but it’s radiant personality and optimism that makes me adore the collection even more. (I had tears in my eyes when I read about her brain tumor recovery.) She’s the perfect example of why I started this series; jewelry is infinitely more beautiful when you appreciate the person behind the baubles.

Loving Lately
Lately, I’m loving:
- A fresh bouquet of tulips from the grocery store. They’re my favorite flower and it seems like ages since they’ve been available. Spring must be right around the corner!
- The Tory Burch shoes I panic purchased. They were starting to sell out in a size 7 at other retailers and I couldn’t risk letting them go. They’re scheduled to arrive today.
- Delving deeper into research for a Belgian getaway in July. I’m antsy to eat and drink my way through Brussels: mussels, frites, chocolate and beer! All of my favorites! Have you visited the country? Any must-sees that we should add to our itinerary?
Bauble of the Week
I’ve been a fan of House of Lavande’s costume jewelry for awhile now and I’m even more so after spotting this necklace from their fall/winter collection. The iciness of the opalescent glass would look as beautiful against cozy winter knits as it would with a breezy dress this summer.
