If someone had a little shop, they might be interested in wholesale fashion jewelry. I think it would be fun to have a little “shoppe” that was creative, trendy, and had a little bit of everything: gifts, fresh flowers, jewelry, inspirational books, artistic designs, musical accessories, educational products, healthy foods and snacks, etc. I would have to do a lot of thinking to come up with a creative name for a shop that carried such a vast array of products, though.

Medical Jewelry
I know several people who have medical conditions that could be life threatening if not treated on a daily basis. One dear friend has to wear an insulin pump, and another friend has been in a diabetic coma. I think if I had some type of condition, I would wear medical jewelry to alert people. Something could happen at the store or somewhere family or friends weren’t around.

Trendy Maternity Fashions
I think pregnant women look so cute. Our daughter had some darling maternity clothes, and she just looked precious in them. Of course, she’s precious anyway! There are so many cute maternity clothes available nowadays, and just because someone is pregnant doesn’t mean they can’t be trendy. If you’re looking for some cute and trendy maternity clothes, then I recommend checking out Kiki’s Fashions Maternity. They’re having a 20% off sale through Feb. 11 on maternity clothes plus they have free shipping on orders over $75. They really do have cute clothes, and their prices are great.
Green…the Trend for Spring Wardrobes
I just read Meg’s post that the “in color” for spring is going to be green, followed by orange for a close second. So the spring trends are seeing green. And any color of green will work. It doesn’t have to be a specific shade. I know I have a couple of green T-shirts (one cute lime green one that I bought after Christmas for 75% off), a long-sleeved lime green mock turtleneck top, and a sea green outfit that “C” gave me that I didn’t wear last spring. I’m not sure why because I often get a compliment on the color of it. I need to go look and see what else I have hanging in my closet. 🙂
Camisoles
The Bargain Queen has another post about a good bargain. It’s for a purple Isaac Mizrahi camisole for $11.49 on clearance. Color coordinated camisoles are great to wear under button-up shirts. Right now, the colors of camisoles I have are beige, black, and pink, and I’m looking for one more camisole to match specifically with a certain shirt I like to wear.
Floral Canvas Tote
I just saw the cutest canvas tote on clearance for $9.49 at The Bargain Queen’s site. It would be perfect for spring which will be here before we know it. I use totes a lot, especially when we’re traveling. I have one tote that I bought in Hawaii which is one of my favorites. Our daughter gave me a black one a while back that has places to insert pictures. It will perfect to put pictures of family and especially Baby J. What grandma doesn’t like to show pictures of her grandbaby? I’m sure it will be one of my favorite totes, too, if not my very favorite! 🙂
A Great Buy on Liz Claiborne Skirt
Meg, Florida’s Bargain Queen, has another great buy, this time on a dark denim Liz Claiborne skirt. It’s a classic A-line skirt which she says can look great with a T-shirt and sandals, or it can look dressier with a blouse. I really like skirts myself because they are so versatile. Click here to see this very flattering skirt that is a great buy for $25.99
Lantern-Sleeve Blouse
I just saw the cutest blouse in a post by Meg, Florida’s Bargain Queen. It has three-quarter length sleeves that are lantern-sleeves, would look great for work or a party, and could even be worn with jeans to dress them up a bit. It’s a very flattering, feminine looking blouse, and the great thing about it is that it’s on sale for a little less than half price! Click here to see a picture of it or for information on ordering it.
Seat Belt Purses
Our daughter has the neatest seat belt purses that our son-in-law gave her. I remember the first time she told me she had a seat belt purse, I imagined a purse with the buckle and everything. When I actually saw the purse, I was amazed at how nice it was. Her most recent purse is a smaller version of her first one and much easier to handle now that she has Baby J. Both purses are a classic black color, look sharp when she’s dressed up or when she’s wearing jeans, are strong and sturdy ,and are made to last a long time. She also has the matching wallet and keeps her purse very organized, and I imagine in a couple of years she will have little toy cars and trucks in her purse as well.
My Earrings are Driving Me Crazy!!
I don’t look at cute earrings in the store unless they are for sensitive ears because the metal will definitely bother my ears and cause them to itch like crazy. And one of the things I can not stand is for my ears to be itchy all day. So I only look at the sterling silver earrings which greatly limits my choice. If you have a problem with earrings, too, go to the blog below and read about a neat solution that Wanda has for eliminating that problem.
Jewelry to Accent an Outfit
I have a friend who always wears the neatest jewelry. She wears earrings and maybe a necklace or bracelet that match the clothes she’s wearing, and I think that’s partly because she’s an artist and her creativity carries over into her jewelry. (I usually have on my silver hoop earrings, although I do have several other pairs. And then I wear my watch, although the battery needs replacing right now, so a lot of days recently the earrings and my wedding rings are it.) I have another friend who wears neat jewelry too. One outfit she wears that looks really sharp is a black dress with a pearl necklace. Jewelry can definitely be a nice accent to an outfit whether it’s a nice, black dress or blue jeans and a shirt.
