shopping for pretend

Alright, I know I've been out of touch for a LONG time. Life just got crazy. I haven't even been selling jewelry. Shocking, I know. But I'm going to try super hard to get back into blogging. It's sad that you can get so busy that you have to remind yourself to stop and do things (like blogging) that you love. I have lots to share when I have more time, but for now, let's get back to the thing I love best: pretend shopping!

If you haven't noticed, I'm loving these honey bee earrings right now, and I've started thinking about something new that can go with them. These springy flower clips from a brand new Etsy shop are just darling (and they happen to be on sale). And I dream of having a waist to fit this lovely powder blue dress. There's only a few weeks left until that possibility can come true. :) Of course, there will most likely be several more weeks (or months) before it can ACTUALLY happen. A girl can dream though, I suppose...

Anywho, back to what's important. Check out these artist's shops for other great finds:

1. Light Blue Pleated Collar Dress by Ananya for $60.00
