Jewels, Jewels, Jewels!!!

Mondays are rarely my favorite day of the week, so to brighten the day, I am going to inject some proper glamour into the week with these stunning jewellery images. Messy yet romantic?



Not enough glamour? Would these help?

{all from net-a-porter}

I am so so in love with the peach Miu Miu bow necklace! It's not impossible to find some much cheaper highstreet versions either

{Large Yellow Beads Necklace - Topshop, Gold Ring - Miss Selfridge, Other - Accessorize}


I'm a little, ok a lot behind on replying to tags but will try to do it this week. Starting with the sexy blogger award from the lovely The Magic Risotto Diaries., with it I have to list 5 sexy things about myself, which is so hard!! I don't think I'm sexy at all, maybe a little of the cute type but certainly not sexy! I will try...

1. I am really short, no I meant petite, and sometimes that can be sexy as I can wear 4 inch heels and still be shorter than most men...
2. I almost never smile showing my teeth, hence creating a little mystery?
3. I don't go with any trend just because it's popular, only when I like it too
4. I don't "play games" when it comes to possible relationships, I don't play hard to get but I am really fussy also, good looks alone never impresses me
5. I would be happy being single, I don't feel like I have to have a boyfriend

Pretty random answers but this is the best I can do!! :) I'm tagging all you girls reading these! xx

Such great photographs. I adore jewelry. I have vivid memories of my grandmother's vanity table and mirror being draped in tons of jewels (mostly faux, but still gorgeous) that mingled with vintage perfume bottles. I inherited her obsession with fashion and jewelry (along with her hourglass frame and love of cooking).

Gedankenlos said...

wow these jewelry shots are great! so beautiful :)

Laura Faye said...

I also love the Miu Miu necklace!

Tiffany said...

The first couple of pictures pretty much look like what I've got at home, and in reality it is rather scary *lol* I need like 5 minutes at least every time I try to find a certain item:)

Thanks for visiting my blog! Love the jewels, and moreover, those shoes!

Aline said...

beautiful pictures! I love your answers....esp how you can wear 4 inch heels and still be shorter than most men. I'm very tiny and that is a great spin on it!

Diana said...

These jewels are lovely!

Tina,
You can seriously wear a potato sack and still be sexy!

Christina said...

i'll take a clutter of jewels any day. great responses to the tag as well!

Julia said...

What a fantastic post, darling! I love that you don't play games and you make decisions about what to do and where to go upon what you like and don't like, not because it's fashionable.

Couture Carrie said...

Love this tag and the eye candy! Your #4 is fantastic! And I am really in love with all those fab bib necklaces you found!

Oh! These are all so glamorous. Why are Mondays such a bane..? A gift of jewelry every Monday would certainly start the week off right!

Behind The Seams said...

♡ Nic Nic ♡ said...

beautiful collection, cute shoes!

Wanderlusting said...

I agree about following trends only when you like them. And though I have a most wonderful boyfriend, I was single for six years so I feel very strongly for single girls: being single is great and the perfect excuse to see the world! Take that and enjoy it while you can!

Annabel Wendt (LoveMore) said...

oh lots in common honey! bf's - who needs them? sure I would love my own Edward Cullen..but i am happy being single all the same...bf's take up time anyway! haha. and agree about trends, i am the same.! and about personality...if it aint there, i say it aint anywhere!

A BIT COQUETTISH said...

All those photos are incredibly fabulous!!

And I'm the same exact way - I'm the type who doesn't fall head over heels in love. I guess I'm more practical? We let the boys do the chasing ;]

Jolie Goodnight said...

Those pink heels made my heart stop. I am in love with the black flowers on them.

S.Elisabeth said...

Those photos are amazing. I love shots like those because they make me think of a girl whose so busy with fancy, upper east side soirees that they cannot possibly have time to straighten out their millions of dollars worth of jewelry and accessories.

I'm 4'11'' & even if I wear 4 inch heels... I'm still shorter than a lot of people in general! LOL.

The jewels are gorgeous!
