Ring Around

After watching the movie version of The Outsiders, I spontaneously began to be obsessed with rings.  Strangely, in the movie only one character wears rings, and he beats up the friend of the main character, so I don't know when this came about.  Maybe because I realized that I don't have any rings.  I've always thought they were annoying, because they would never fit that well, and because wedding rings are traditional symbols for marriage (In Western culture anyway).  But today I've been searching around Etsy for some interesting rings:

Just a bunch of random things I like.  But seriously, how great are those wedges?  Looks a bit high though...
I've been sick for a week now, so posting is going to be a little slow.  Enjoy spring!

The Rain

Language is really such a variable subject. Sometimes, gym class is physical education, "pro" and "skills", trousers are pants( but there are still trousers here), fashionista and reccesionista are mainstream now(my Language Arts teacher wouldn't probably approve, and who says that in real life?!), but I digress. My chosen word of the day is nascent.

Today, the weather forecast said it was to be rainy. I hoped that it would rain during physical education, because, really, who wants to run on a Friday? P.E. class came, and it was sunny here and warm. I remember thinking with vengeance, "The weather forecast lied!" Of course, we had to run a mile (not ameliorated by the nice name the teacher gave it). About two thirds of the way through, it started sprinkling. Then the wind picked up. After P.E., it started alternating between raining and drizzling throughout out classes. What a glorious day.

It might be nice to take photos of the rain, but our camera is severely lacking the thing known as quality. Here are things that remind me of today's rain:

Cloudy Day - hand painted silk crepe de chine luxury scarf by MuseSilkPaintings

Pretty, but the bracelet and the scarf are unaffordable. I need a silk scarf, too. However, this is why you go to flea markets.

Vintage Obsessed!


Recently, I've been noticing vintage jewelry more often. (Vintage Cloisonne Enamel Bangle by Vintage4U). Right now, I want an enamel bangle-I hardly ever wear jewelry. And something about enamel+thin bangle=right!

I think the idea of a poison ring is cool, because it would be useful for keeping small items in it.
