Crafty DIY I've tried

Hi I'm Mae... I have a confession to make (sigh) I'm addicted to Pinterest. I feel so much better! I found this how to tutorial pinned on Pinterest from http://www.ecabonline.com/2010/04/braided-bead-necklace.html

This sit provides a really easy to follow guide on how to create this necklace. Here is my version of it. Let me know what you think. I made it for my supervisor and she really loved it! Yay!

My adventure to the LACMA

"So... are the rumors true?"

A close up of the jewelry.

About the outfit: Sunglasses from Target $16, Purse from Urban Outfitters $40, Dress from Foreign Exchange $35, Vest Urban Outfitters $30, Bracelets (a gift from my sister), Sandals Wild Pair $40. Ring Forever 21 $5. The prices are roughly what I paid unfortunately I can't remember the exact price I paid for each item but I'm pretty sure my estimates are very close.

My must have finds

Columbus day shopping success! Part 1

This weekend I went shopping with a friend to help her shop for some new fall pieces. Like always I managed to find some pieces for myself. :) I went to the Americana in Glendale as well as some stores near by. It was the weekend before Columbus day and almost every store was having a sale. Here is one of the fun finds that I lucked out on from my weekend of impulse shopping.

It's a Betsey Johnson necklace that I found at Nordstrom Rack. The original price of this necklace is $42 but I only paid $18! Woohoo!

I should probably mention that I love accessories so I may be posting a lot of pictures of jewelry on this blog. I love colorful Jewelry that makes a statement and Betsey Johnson's pieces do just that. Here is another necklace by Betsey Johnson that I also own.
