Vintage-spiration

Hello My Lovelies,

I hope you all have had a wonderful week. I'm on cloud nine as I finish packing for my FIRST cruise tomorrow. I wanted to share a little bit about myself with all of you so here we go. I consider myself a vintage girl with a love of the Hollywood stars of the 1920s-1960s-ish. I pull my inspiration for style, class, and life from so many wonderful people and things of these times.

Today's Vintage-spiration comes from my absolute favorite actress, style icon, and all around amazing person, Miss Audrey Hepburn in Funny Face. As I'm packing I'm watching Funny Face with Audrey Hepburn and Fred Astaire and I just wanted to share some of my fav pics from the movie. Enjoy.

I wish I could have been around during her day!

She's just so cute. Classic in every way.

Love the full tulle skirt!


Have a wonderful weekend everyone! See ya next Monday.

P.S. Here's a little song... "On How to Be Lovely"



Blissfully,









P.S You're Lovely

Lovely Lessons: How Do You Want to Be Remembered?

Hello My Lovelies,

I was going through my emails and trying to catch up on some reading when I came across this Lovely Lesson in a newsletter from SheBrand.com. When I decided to starting making jewelry it was supposed to be as a hobby but I quickly realized I had an opportunity to make it so much more and see some growth in myself as well. P.S. You're Lovely has not only become a passion but part of my identity and something I want to be remembered for years down the line. Check out this test below...



Today's Lovely Lesson: How Do You Want to Be Remembered? 
How Do You Want to Be Remembered?
The following quiz appeared on the Web and has been all over the world. Take a few minutes to answer the following questions and see how you do:
1. Name the five wealthiest people in the world.
2. Name the last five Heisman trophy winners.
3. Name the last five winners of the Miss America contest.
4. Name ten people who have won the Nobel or Pulitzer prize.
5. Name the last half dozen Academy Award winners for best actor and actress.
6. Name the last decade’s worth of World Series winners.
The point: None of us remember the headlines of yesterday. These are not second-rate achievers. They are the best in their fields. But the applause dies. Awards tarnish. Achievements are forgotten. Accolades and certificates are buried with their owners.

Here’s another quiz. See how you do on this one:
1. List a few teachers who aided your journey through school.
2. Name three friends who have helped you through a difficult time.
3. Name three people who have taught you something worthwhile.
4. Think of a few special people who have made you feel appreciated and special.
5. Think of three people you enjoy spending time with.
6. Name a half a dozen heroes who stories have inspired you.
Easier?
The lesson: The people who make a difference in your life are not the ones with the most credentials, the most money or the most awards. They are the ones who care.

After I read this I realized something else. It's not just about HOW you want to be remembered but its also about WHO you remember as you make your way to the top. The people who really want to see you succeed in whatever you do in life will be there no matter what. Take faith and pride on your way to the top but just don't forget about the people who carried you when you were weak.


Have a wonderful Wednesday everyone.


Blissfully,










P.S You're Lovely

Baby Girls Grow Up So Fast

Hello My Lovelies,

I hope you all had a wonderful 4th of July and enjoy all the pleasures of summer fun and foods. I had an amazing weekend but its back to work now. I wanted to share a special order with you today.

I just finished a Baby Girl's First Pearls for an order child. I simply increased in length of the necklace but kept the same pearl size so it doesn't become an overwhelming necklace for a young girl.
14" 4mm necklace with Swarovski Crystals

This necklace is 14" instead of the traditional 12" that you see for the baby's necklace.
Birthstones: October: Opal, November: Citrine, December: Blue Zircon

If you are interested in ordering Baby Girl's First Pearls for an older child here's a little help and the prices

  • A baby to a toddler wears 12" -$30
  • A child to a pre-teen wears 14" - $35
  • A teen to an adult wears 16" - $40 (this necklaces uses 8mm pearls. See Family Tree Necklace)

Hopefully this was a help and inspires you to add to your pearl collection or begin one for the little girl in your life.

Blissfully,








P.S You're Lovely
