Bird Earrings

My boyfriend's lovely brother Jason got me these adorable little bird earrings from the Magritte Museum in Belgium.  They're inspired by the Belgian artist René Magritte's paintings, which have many references to birds.  Thanks again Jay, love you!

Finsk Beauties

Fo' Real?!!
Just came across these insane Finsk Project shoes on Solestruck.com for a cool 1,000 bucks.  WHOA...just whoa.  Yea another piece of shoe art...I'd love to collect shoes like this and put them on display, because God knows I could never walk in them.

Good To Go

Some new things for summer:
MAC Pro Longwear Lipcreme in Good To Go- buy here
Jackie sunnies from Urban Outfitters- buy here
Espadrille wedges from Steve Madden- buy here
I was so excited to get every single one of these things, absolute must haves for summer :)

The straw hat is from H&M last summer, which I resurrected by the way.   If you every squish a hat (under your feet during a 20 hour car ride to Tennessee :/) the easiest way to fix it is with a steamer!  I kept the hat for so long because I loved it so much and I knew I NEEDED to re-shape it one day, and it only took me a year to realize a steamer would do the trick.  At least I have it now!
