Renegade Craft Fair

Oh, how busy life has been lately!

I'll be selling, this weekend, at Renegade Craft Fair in San Francisco. Hope to see you there!

Indie Mart

Coming up this Sunday is the San Francisco Indie Mart! I'll be there selling my handmade jewelry, enjoying the tunes, and hanging out with friends. I'm also going to have some "do-it-yourself" necklaces available for your own personal style touches!

Shobha Ohal Designs

This week's Thursday Feature is a shop I just discovered today! I saw her ring on the front page of Etsy this morning and just knew that I had to feature her shop.

This first ring features an original sketch of hers from a photograph she took at the Tuillerie Gardens in Paris.

sterling silver flower ring$68.00


another camel ring$68.00

I think her rings would make great gifts. They'd be the perfect accent to just about any outfit. . . But I'm a sucker for BIG rings! Stop by her shop today!

One weekend full of roses

A couple of weekends ago Jeff and I had a lovely day out and about in Berkeley and Oakland. The weather was gorgeous! First we had lunch at the Rose Garden in Berkeley. Afterwards we checked out some of the open artist studios throughout the east bay.













At the end of the day we went to our usual Sunday night spot, Jupiter for live bluegrass music. It was the perfect ending to a relaxing day.

Blissful and Busy

Blissful and busy. . . these kinds of days call for a certain kind of outfit. Clothes that are easy to move in but still flattering. And especially this time of the year, I want to wear pretty prints and soft fabrics.



Right now I'm really drawn to this silhouette of a fitted blouse, tank top, or tee paired with a flowy, drapey skirt. Flats or sandals being the most appropriate shoes of course!

Hair detail. The butterfly is actually an old broach. I took the sharp stick part off and attached it to a bobby pin.



The most comfortable shoes in the world.



And, as usual, you can see these photos of mine and many others' creative outfit adventures at Wardrobe Remix on Flickr.
