Dzo. Dza. Dzipitty.

Hello folks.  If you have blogger, you know that it was down for two days.  I actually had taken outfit pictures for you!  So I have that to post soon enough.  What are your weekend plans? 

It's supposed to be rainy here for dayzonend.  But all that means to me is coziness. So for now, I leave you with this:



No, I don't usually rock em both at the same time.  Oh, and the ring was my mothers day present, but they accidentally shipped the bracelet, so then they shipped the ring for free and let me keep the bracelet too! Love them both, and Melody Eshani is someone I look up to as well.  She rocks.  

Have a happy weekend!

Mothers Day Gift Guide

Yup, today's post is going to be just as the title says.  Just to give you a heads up, most of it is going to be jewelry- the good news is that there will be something for every price range.  Holla. You know how I do.


$26.90 ASOS Drop Earrings With Tassels

These earrings are a perfect Mothers Day gift for a good friend, or a coworker with a great style, etc.  They have it in different colors as well, check it out!

 $39 + Jess LC Diversy Collection


In the "Diversy" collection, they have funkier styles.  I fell in love with this little paisley when I saw one of my favs, Kendi of Kendi Everyday when she wore it in this pic:


How precious!  The bracelet is only $39, and the necklace I put up was $90, but check out all the different collections!




$48 M.E. I'm Fly Ring


Aight, look.  I love this ring from my (fellow Iranian) girl Melody Eshani SO MUCH, that I didn't even want to share it with you.  You know why? Because I'm broke, that's why.  And I would be BLOWN if they were sold out, which they will be soon (they already have been once).  They have it in gold, black and white.  My other homegirl Erykah Badu loves to rock the I'm Fly rings and bracelets!






$85 Personalized Charm Necklace


How amazing is this thing?? I love it!  I first saw this featured on Pioneer Woman's blog (another one of my favs for sure, thanks Caroline!).  Check out Southernheidibelle's shop on Etsy to see other personalizes items if this is too much for your mama recipient.  Oh, and if you don't know what Etsy is, it's a website for people to sell handmade or true vintage items.  It doesn't even have to be an item, if you are looking for a business card template or banner, or kids birthday party decorations, you can find it!  Very awesome.  Love etsy!
annd pssstttt: I finally took pics of some of my vintage clothes, so my shop will finally be opening soon!


$53.79  ASOS Tortoise Shell Boyfriend Style Watch

 ASOS is a European shop with great clothes and jewelry.  They have their own brand as well as other brands like Nicole Richie's, Sienna Miller.  Anyway, check out their other watches and jewelry.  Or maybe get your mama nice scarf?


$125 Calender Bracelet 

A cute little bracelet with the month and a tiny jewel or gem for the day the mama had one of her love.  Or if it's multiple, you can add more little calenders and it would like this:


Very cute! However, if you get the gold ones, they are...........wait, are you ready for it?? Waaiiittt fooorrrr itttt...$650!  Insane, I know.  But hey, I bet if you search etsy you can find something similar for less.  Check it out!


So what do you think? Do you like any of the stuff?  I know it's a little late and you may have already ordered something, but lets face it, there are a lot of procrastinators out there, ok?!  


If I can think of anything more than the one item I have in my head that's not jewelry, then I will do another blog about it within the next couple days.  I'm going to really try to think of some original things, so check back!

Reminder Rings

I found these precious rings for $1.50 when I went to a wonderful and random thrift shop.  They were $1.50, and even more expensive than a leather jacket I got!  I loved that trip.  Anyhow, these rings were sitting safely in a pocket in my purse for a while until I somehow randomly decided their fate.

 {the top two are garnet colored, and the bottom are a turquoise}

You see, I was listening to the radio when they were speaking about the death one of the vj's, Ill Will. Everyone was crying, and it was so horrible and sad.  He apparently had been sick, but I am not sure with what.  What stuck out the most, was how many people said they remembered Will as someone who was always happy and positive.  They said no matter what, he always wanted to make the best out of anything and always looked at the positive.  Every person that personally knew him and called in, had this to say in one way or another.  I was like damn, that's a great way to be remembered, and I admired him.

It all kind of made me think and I wanted to start being more positive by trying not to complain for a week.  Just even about little things (although, health issues didn't count if I needed to say 'hey, I can't do that right now cuz my head is pounding,').  What is one of the ways people remind themselves of something?  They wear rubber bands on their wrist!  So I decided that's what I wanted to wear these rings for, for this week.  These rings just felt special to me, I don't know.  But ok, I am done being a weirdo. 

Here are just a few things from around the web that I have stumbled upon, loved, and wanted to share:

 {someones bouquet of pins for their wedding, how beautiful!}


 {someone's shoe closet from apartmenttherapy.com, COLLOORRSSS!}

p.s. The past couple days have been warm and heavenly, so I will make up the outfit posts with what I wore soon <3
