Happiness

I am determined to be cheerful and happy in whatever situation I may find myself. For I have learned that the greater part of our misery or unhappiness is determined not by our circumstance but by our disposition.”

Martha Washington

Almost a year ago (my official blog anniversary is April 7! – stay tuned for an exciting post!) an enthusiastic Chicago girl hit the “publish” button, and I’m so grateful that I did just that. Ever since that day my little space of mine has taken me to such wonderful places, from meeting new and exciting people to fashion shows and networking opportunities that I will never forget! I’m beyond grateful for all of YOU because you have not only encouraged me to strive for more, but you have encouraged me to start my own business as well. My jewelry designs have been so successful because of YOU, and I simply cannot THANK YOU all enough! Hence today’s post is about YOU and the pure joy of happiness you all bring to me. Happiness, which I’ve learned, does not come from how many followers you have on Instagram, or how many likes you get on a picture but moreover it is a spiritual experience of living every minute with love, grace and gratitude. I’ve made it a habit of mine to try and make at least one person happy every day. I’m all about encouraging one another, and this being said: I truly hope that my little space of mine – aka my blog – is a place of encouragement and happiness for you all. Where you are not only inspired by my outfit posts but you find a reason to smile and be happy.

As always, thanks again for your support!

I love you all.

White Lace

Last weekend I had the amazing opportunity to collaborate with some of my favorite Chicago bloggers to shoot a little video together: Bloggers Who Brunch. We all got together to have Brunch at Tippling Hall, our neighborhood gem for anyone who wants great drinks and food in a relaxed atmosphere. Tippling Hall was the perfect place for us style bloggers to meet and gossip. It’s edgy, yet unpretentious; comfortable, yet raucous; and classic, yet modern. It was such a fun day, and on this note I would like THANK Monika Dixon PR and Janet Mandel of Fashion-a-holic, as well as Tippling Hall for having me! I feel blessed to be surrounded by such amazing people who are not only beautiful but hard-working, driven and talented as well.

Also, in case you have missed it: We are currently hosting a Giveaway on Instagram! You can win a complimentary brunch at Tippling Hall for you and your seven friends! The winner will be announced in the #bloggerswhobrunch video on Monday, March 30! Good luck!

Much love, as always & have a fabulous weekend!

New Collection: Wire Bangles

I am so excited to share my new Spring Jewelry Collection 2015 with you today! All bangles are handmade by me with love. These beautiful and unique wire wrapped bracelets are the perfect ‘add in” pieces for your stack or great to wear alone or in groupings for a chic look! My bangles consist of gold non-tarnish wire(s) and beautiful stones/glass beads delicately woven together. Each bracelet is sold in sets of two but stands out when worn alone as well. Stack with other bracelets to match your personal style, and have fun with it! I personally love to stack 4 or 5 together to really make a statement.

Made to order with gold non-tarnish wire. One size fits all.

As always, thanks so much for your support & don’t forget to SHOP my whole collection HERE.

Happy Shopping!

Much love,

Vanessa
