Entry Level Only.

My birthday was in the beginning of November, and one of the gifts I received were a nice pair of black onyx and sterling silver earrings. After a little debate I decided that since I haven't been wearing earrings lately, and I really get much more use out of my bracelets, and rings, that I should go ahead and exchange the earrings. Sometimes it seems harsh to exchange a gift, but when you think about it, it's better for everyone that you have something you know you'll actually get use out of.

We've been pretty busy since my birthday, which is why we just got around to going back to the boutique the gift was from. I looked in countless cases of all types of jewelry, admired stone after stone, and tried on ring after ring.

Eventually I decided on two rings that equaled the price of the earrings. The first, is a beautifully dainty sterling silver ring and the second is a stunning garnet ring that I'm thinking will be a nice, timeless piece to have.

In the end, I'm very happy with my choices, and debuted both rings for Thanksgiving. (Hope everyone had a fabulous holiday!)

I know it's been a while as far as posting goes, so I also wanted to include a little life update. My fashion project for over Thanksgiving break was a dress out of duct tape. I didn't want to totally spoil what the dress would look like, but here are the colors of duct tape I ended up picking out! Any guesses? Hint: I'm thinking artsy.

That's it for now, thanks for reading! I'm spending the rest of my day watching Beverly Hills 90210 season four, responding to comments, and cleaning my room. And once I get through that, I also have seeing the new Harry Potter movie on the agenda.
