While driving home from lunch, we stopped at hubs' old elementary school and he started to reminisce about his childhood and what it was like going to school. These rocks are on top of a hill, and sort of make up some of the hill. He said in the winter, they weren't allowed to play on the rocks, but in the summer, had free reine. It was so sweet hearing him talk about it and how the school on the other side of the rocks was their rival. Even in elementary school they had rivals! So cute.
In other news, I made this skirt, top and necklace... and it doesn't happen very often (or never, actually, this is the first time) that I wear an entire outfit that I made myself. I picked up this fabric on Friday night, went home and made this circle scarf immediately. The great thing about the circle scarf, is that you can wear it multiple ways, including a skirt (just like the shredded scarf)!

While shopping for a friend's birthday, I found this necklace and couldn't pass it up. Of course this happens while shopping for someone else... you always find stuff you want for yourself. Fortunately, I just kept it to one necklace and the rest was for her.
To my surprise, I came home to a hubby and best man who had set up all said best man's DJ equipment in our basement. Hmmm. This means we either need to plan a party or I have to listen to hubs experiment with his 'sets' on the turn tables night, after night, after night...
I snapped this pictures super quick on my lunch hour as the camera battery flashed, and flashed and flashed until it gave up. I'm super surprised at how many 'not bad' pictures I got - score.
So I started a new job this week and it's been going really well, but hey, really, we are only on day three, but I'm super optimisitc about this. I was pretty unhappy where I was before, stuck it out for a year and a half, and was still miserable. It's so draining when you are unhappy at work. Not only does it affect your view on going to work, it actually takes a toll on your whole life. I was literally going into work backwards and counting the minutes till the end of the day. I tried to do my best, but being unhappy does something to you. The people I worked with were great though and gave me a super sweet pizza lunch on my last day, complete with well wishes and a few gifts (how sweet is that!?). All in all to say, sunny skies ahead and I'm really excited about this new chapter in my life.

As some of you know, I design and sell jewellery (online here) and more recently some accessories. I have been asked to do a (home) jewellery show this weekend and have been very busy preparing and creating a collection. Here are some sneak peeks of what I will be selling.

I'm loving the cape trend and am jumping on board. I purchased this sweater cape a few weeks ago and have been waiting for the perfect time to wear it. However, I'd actually forgotten I had it, as I left it in the shopping bag (oops!). While rushing around trying to get ready for a girls' nite out, I saw it out of the corner of my eye and grabbed it and it worked out perfectly.
