web love wednesday!

Street style blogs are a-plenty in the webiverse. I like Au coin de ma rue's spin on things. Each subject displays objects they carry on themselves or feel represent them at this point in their lives and explain why. In an uber-hip and interesting way, of course.

Paley on a small scale...

Albert Paley is best known as a sculptor, but he got his start in the metals arts on a smaller scale. I love this necklace of his because it is simple in its' shape and pretty bada**. The dagger pendant is 19" long! Look closer and you'll find it is technically amazing in its construction, something that I certainly appreciate as a jeweler. The best of both worlds.

so good...

goodies...

A little preview of some of the goodies I brought back from Tucson. The wheels are turning and soon the hands will be feverishly working to bring you beautiful new jewelry. Many more mini works of art that can be loved and cherished are on their way! Can't wait to share!

so what...

if I can't read a lick of text on the Swedish website Skona hem. That doesn't change the fact that it helps feed my snooping-in-other-peoples-homes addiction. You wouldn't want me to do something desperate, now would you?

Wait, I went on a vacation?

It seems like it was ages ago already. My love and I took a (long overdue) trip to the Yucatan last month. There was some beach and relaxation, but it consisted mostly of feeding our bellies with amazing food and feeding our insatiable obsession with the mysterious Maya by visiting as many ruins as was humanly possible within our alloted time, which would be a total of 7.

sometimes...

I wonder if this is too good to be true. The kind of love in books and movies. The kind that changes with you and gets better and different as time goes on. The kind that feels like forever. All you can do is hope from the deepest place in your heart that you will never misplace it.
