Boredom, Vintage Shops, and Wedding Rings

I'm still around. Being bored out of my skull. Thankfully, I can go back to work tomorrow. I got a haircut the other day. It's bad. Really bad, but it'll grow. So, to make myself feel better about my bad haircut, I'm going to dye it. I haven't decided on a color yet, but am leaning towards red.

There's a vintage shop closing down and selling everything for $10 or less. I am a female and needless to say, I went shopping. I got a Tocca dress, an awesome frilly jacket, a cute summery skirt, and a pair of peacock feather earrings. I just need to go back and snatch the red sari they had, if it's still there. I hope it is.

Wedding planning is still progressing at a good rate for how far off we are from the big day. I have invitations, R.S.V.P. cards, and most of the directions sheet typed up. A dear friend, Ash over at The Thing About Daisies..., is sending me some paper samples so I can play with the colors more. The color scheme is currently based on peacock feathers. I sent a picture of the invitation mock-up to T and... he liked it. Finally, something he likes. Last night we did some pseuo-band shopping on Etsy. It was a lot of fun and we found some very nice rings. I'm partial to a titanium band with an inset pinstripe of silver from TitaniumKnights. I'd rather the silver stripe to be white gold to match my engagement ring. There are a couple of bands that T liked as well.

These pictures are taken from TitaniumKnights.

My pick for me.




Titanium 2mm Wide Silver Inlay
















Two options for T.




Titanium Ring with Two White Gold Inlays















Titanium Ring Bevel Cut 1mm offset Silver Inlay

Allow Me To Drool A Moment

Over the Calypso Skirt over at ModCloth. It is absolutely gorgeous and I could totally rock it with this pair of Victorian style boots I have. A petticoat and over-skirt combo that can be worn separately. Don't forget the touch of corsetry!

Here are the pictures.


































Isn't it lovely?
































I'm in lurve with it. It is priced at $54.99 and sadly, currently out of stock. I can't wait to get mine in a small.

Update 12/12 - Back in stock. Sah-weet!
