Medieval Fantasy Earrings by Vintouch

No end to shopping tipps this week -haha^^. But you'll agree at the sight of those handmade pieces of jewellery that they are something special! Found in the (private) Online Shop Vintouch - handmade and inspired by medieval artwork. Prices are reasonable! Below my shop favourites:

Flower design with coloured pearls.

Blue and gold - is there a better combination? The symbols at the pendants look mysterious.

A little more oriental: hearts and pearls.

Anything more? Yeah, I am quite annoyed with G**gle right now. When I logged into my blogger account this morning, they asked for my phone number to 'restore' my blog in case of sudden data loss. What a ploy - just yesterday I read that they are focusing now on collecting cell phone data from people and that they are already able to locate you/your phone via the number. I am really unhappy with this (and did not give my number of course). Don't give yours if they ask! With the whole G**gle Street View thing going on, I am trying to get away from them as far as possible - which primarily means changing the search engine and reduced use of my g**glemail email adress. They are crossing the limit with their schemes...

Going out

Earrings: Bijou Brigitte, pendant: Vintage

Dress: GAP

Blazer: Only, Shawl: Vintage
Hi^^
I went out with my friends to eat in a restaurant
last week, so I put quite some effort into my outfit:
Of late I am really crazy about pinning my hair up!
this time I did it without a special cushion and had it
decorated with little red roses^^. The necklace
actually is from the Tropical Museum in Amsterdam,
Netherlands (I went there in February this year).

After all there is a story behind the new red
chandelier earrings: I fell in love with them in the
BB-online shop and waited for them to appear
in the stores...without success. So I printed
their picture out and asked for them in the
store. The answer was: 'No, we don't have them.
We will never. We cannot order them.' But here
it comes: as I left the store I suddenly saw them
innocently hanging there! The shop assistant
(slightly embarrassed) told me they were coming
in this morning and she could not remember hanging
them up!^^So here we go: my new chandeliers and I!

PS.: The food was delicious, I had Italian pasta
with salmon, shrimps and cream spinach.
