I’m LOVING that the Bruins won last night!  I feel bad for this hottie though, Patrice Bergeron.  Can’t play because of his concussions.  I may be biased but, I think we have the hottest hockey players on the Bruins!

I’m LOVING that my boyfriend is finally home from Miami.  Only to leave me again on Friday, booo!

I’m LOVING I’m getting a manicure and pedicure on Saturday morning.  Can’t wait.  I’ll probably go with Hot & Spicy.  I’m a little obsessed with any coral color.

Vintage Jewelry.

 

I’m a sucker for any kind of jewelry but, vintage jewelry is my favorite!  I secretly try to think of the person that once wore it and what their life was like.  Some pieces I find remind me of my Grandma and her flashy jewelry collection, which I loved as a kid.  I was driving in Newton the other day and was stopped at a red light and to the right of me was not one but two antique stores!  I found 3 pieces at each place! 

 

Loved this funky little design.  Looks like some sort of tribal thing to me.  I think it would look cute with an ivory tank that I bought in Nashville.

I’m a huge fan of anything nautical.  Maybe a bit obsessed, so when I saw this United States Navy anchor pin, I couldn’t resist.  I plan on putting a skinny long gold chain through the little circle  at the top to make it a necklace.  The lady that worked there told me it’s from WWII.  She said ladies would wear a pin to represent which branch of the service their husbands were in.  How cute.

Who doesn’t love some gold bangles?!  These are super cute.  They kind of look like tree branches.  Love how skinny they are!

Once again, these remind me of some nautical knots.  And anything nautical= Lindsay will buy.  So I took these babies home with me also!

These last two necklaces are basically identical to Kate Spade’s women for women necklace.  I’m not sure who made the necklaces I bought but, women in Rwanda hand make all of the beaded necklaces that Kate Spade sells in this collection.  Here is a side by side to see how similar they are!

What I'm Loving Wednesday!


Link up with Jamie and share what you're loving!



I'm LOVING this new Preppy Knit Sweater that I got at Forever 21 this weekend.  I love the price even more, it was only $14.80!



I'm also LOVING this Faceted Cocktail Ring that I got at Forever 21.  It was only $2.80!

I'm LOVING my new blog layout, it's much  more me!  Do you like it?!

I'm really LOVING this striped monogram phone cover from Marley Lilly and reallllly want to order it even though my sweet boyfriend just bought me a Kate Spade one!



I'm LOVING that when I move I finally get to hang up my Boston neighborhood print!  I bought it from Etsy and was having a hard time finding a frame for it.  I can't wait to move in 2 weeks and hang this baby up!  FYI- there are lots of other city prints as well! 


I'm LOVING this Holliston Cuff from adjewelry on Etsy.  She also has a blog that is great!  I've met her a few times at the SOWA market in the South End here in Boston.  She makes amazing jewelry!

Target Tuesday!



I decided to join in and show my new purchases from Target.  I kind of have an obsession with the new Calypso St. Barth Target line

Last week I bought this, the Medallion Print Crochet-Bib Tunic, I absolutely LOVE it.  It’s so comfy and the silk feels amazing.


I am loving the jewelry.  It seems as if the Target I went to had slim pickings but I was still able to find the two pieces that I knew I wanted.








The one thing I wanted from this line but they don’t sell it in the stores is the Print Dress in Pita Bread.  I’m so torn about getting it though because the reviews are awful.  Everyone says that it’s too see-through.  What to do, what to do?!
Isn’t it so cute?!

I’m LOVING that I’m getting my hair cut and highlighted on Saturday.  Seriously can’t wait, it’s been almost 3 months.

 

I’m LOVING that this weekend is Mother’s Day and I’m going out to dinner with my mom and nana!

 

I’m LOVING that I got these 2 books at Borders for only $18.  I’m not loving that Borders is going out of business though.  My heart broke for the old man working.

Nashville.

 

Hey y’all! Hope everyone had a fantastic weekend.  I spent my weekend in Nashville cheering on my friend Nancy in the marathon!  Nashville is such a cute little city.  I stayed at the Wyndham Union Station Hotel, the staff were the friendliest bunch ever.  SO helpful!  Here are a few cool pictures of the hotel.

Rumor has it that it’s haunted, so we decided to go on a little ghost hunt after a few drinks.  I took a picture and this appeared!-
