Favorite New Everyday Earrings

For Christmas, Kevin's sister got me an Etsy Gift Card. I was super excited to get my shopping on and rushed to my computer to look through all my favorites and try decide what I wanted to buy. Just my luck, most of my favorite items are from Canadian sellers…which for those of you who don't know, you can only use Etsy Gift Cards in shops that have direct checkout activated and direct checkout is currently only available to US sellers. So I couldn't use it on A LOT of the stuff I wanted. But then I remembered that I needed new everyday earrings and I've been in love with Upper Metal Class since I saw her stuff at last summer's Renegade LA. And the last time I was at Myrtle, Whitney started carrying them but didn't have any of the earring sets I was interested in. So I looked through her online shop to see if there was something I wanted AND her shop accepts Etsy Gift Cards.

So I picked out these lovely mini triangle earrings in silver! I've been wearing them for about 2 weeks now and I absolutely love them! And I love that they're made locally in Echo Park! Be sure to check out the Upper Metal Class shop if you love minimalist metal jewelry.

Weekly Want: Color Block Locket

I've been coveting Verabel lockets for a really long time. But when she started collaborating with Alyson Fox, I just died. The locket is vintage with an illustration by Alyson. I love the simplicity and the colors. I feel like in this digital, less people wear lockets. More people are willing to have their loved ones as cell phone wallpaper than a treasure hanging from their necks. I had a gold heart-shaped locket when I was a kid that I wore until the chain no longer fit. Rest assured that if I ever get a new locket, I'd definitely put a picture of Sebastian in it.

Available at Verabel for $65
