A couple weekends ago, the fam-dam and I paid a visit to lovely, gorgeous, wet-my-pants beautiful Carmel and Monterey, California. It called for comfy, casual wear and definitely comfy shoes! Enter: Cowboy Boots. Boo-yah. With these babies on, I was good to go for the entire day (k that’s a lie… it was only for most of the day. In my cowboy boots defense though, after about 7 or 8 hours of walking, very few shoes (that aren’t something a 90 year old lady would wear, or Toms) will still have your feet feeling lovely by the end of the day. Right guys? Right? Mmmmmright?)… what was I rambling about again? Am I talking? And should I be calling them cowgirl boots? What say ye?
Can we talk about this necklace though (don’t we just discuss the deepest topics on this here blog?)? Isn’t it adorbs? Peeps – if you haven’t visited Bip & Bop – the adorable Etsy shop full of to die for jewelry – then you NEED to check it out! This personalized charm is perfect for layering with other necklaces or just adding something pretty and delicate to an otherwise comfy/casual ensemb (as seen below!). And there’s A LOT more where that came from. So take a gander at their lovely jewels why don’t chya? Yeah – why don’t chya?
Button-up Gingham top: Forever21 | Cardigan: Forever21 | Jeans: Apricot Lane Boutique, c/o | Boots: Targhetto | Camera Bag/Purse: Theit, c/o | Necklace: Bip&Bop, c/o | Bracelets: Anthropologie {buy here}, Banana Republic {buy here} | Sunglasses: Madewell
Remember when my forearm kind of looked like a big drumstick in this ^ picture? Hungry, anyone? Awesome. (or fragrantly disgusting, depending on how you feel about chicken… and drumstick forearms.)
Ok there’s a closer look at that there cutie necklace from Bip & Bop – cuz I just really like it. I just really really like it. Ok? Geez is it Friday yet?
p.s….
Happy Birthday to the most beautiful, wonderful, caring, fun, hilarious, supportive, admirable lady I know. You don’t look a day over 21 Momma! xoxo
