Bauble of the Week

You should really click through to see just how large this necklace is on the model. The oversize pendant would look incredible with short shift dresses and the season’s must-have flats.

Loving Lately

Lately, I’m loving:

This breathtaking necklace that Patile from KALAN by Suzanne Kalan sent to me. It’s one of the prettiest pieces in my jewelry box. (Patile is planning to add e-commerce capabilities to her site in the coming months, which is going to be dangerous for jewelry lovers everywhere. Until then, you can get your fix at Nordstrom.)
The official start of Birthday Month, which was the only excuse I needed to buy the Tory Burch scarf that’s been featured in my sidebar for weeks. (Now I need a scarf tutorial more than ever…)
Mint juleps and microbrews. The Kentucky Derby is the only sporting event I can fully get behind. You’ll find me cheering for the Run for the Roses on Saturday with a mint julep in hand. (Served in the silver-plated julep cups we purchased in Louisville, naturally.) It’s also the start of Madison’s Craft Beer Week, so don’t be put off by any hops-related Instagrams over the next few days. Cheers!

Mini Moments

My Instagram feed has become more colorful, which must mean spring is officially here. Here are a few of my favorite memories from April:

Won an adorable pajama set from Sleepy Jones
Enjoyed a colorful evening sky on our way back from Easter celebrations in Central Wisconsin
Picked up yet another bouquet of tulips
Booked a July trip to Belgium
Enjoyed a margarita-filled evening with Dave
Ate entirely too much candy
Stopped by the Badgers’ spring game, which was just an excuse to get out and enjoy the warm weather
Indulged in a few of my favorite things
Wore that Gerard Yosca necklace with everything

Behind the Baubles: Elizabeth JEAN

April 29, 2014 by jessica Leave a Comment

After fulfilling her dream of visiting 21 countries before her 21st birthday, Elizabeth Stewart earned a Bachelor of Interior Architecture from Australia’s Monash University. She never dreamed her career would lead to jewelry design until a family member commissioned her to create a small collection. Since then, Elizabeth’s line has blossomed into her own label (Elizabeth JEAN), an online boutique and even an editorial placement in Vogue.
