heart

Happy late Valentine's Day!  What neat picks we had this round!  I love all the jade elephants Nanny had!  I adore jade and have always wanted to have some someday so I feel so lucky we each got some of the many pieces Nanny had.  Staishy wore a really cute jade elephant necklace a couple of weeks ago.  I love it with that bright green shirt!  I agree with Staishy- I always feel closer when I wear an elephant piece even though I know they weren't her only loves.  Last week for Valentine's Day Staishy wore Nanny's silver heart bracelet with a red rhinestone.  So sweet!  Staishy mentioned her concern with the simple clasp and I too had that fear the first time I wore a piece like that, but they are surprisingly sturdy and they are so fun!  This was one of the few bracelets that Nanny had, so I know Staishy felt special wearing this piece.  The week before last I wore Nanny's amethyst and diamond necklace-I don't usually wear a lot of long, nice necklaces like that but I have really been branching out since getting Nanny's jewelry.  I know how much she liked the longer necklaces.  Last week, I didn't have anything especially Valentine's looking, but I really enjoyed this celtic pendant on a long silver chain.  The chain itself was so pretty aside from the beautiful pendant, and was such a nice length.  I think this one may be a new favorite!
