hello lovelies!
how are you doing?
i don't think that i told you that i got very sick two days before Jay and Camille arrived home for
the wedding. the circumstance called for a steroid shot! ( never had one before...but MAN...it did the
trick!) i would have missed everything. that dose of magic kept me going and going!
Thank you, Dr Christine and Michael, LPN!
i have been working some 1/2 days during our "staycation" just to keep things in order at the clinic.
with school ending, and the FOURTH behind us, these are BUSY weeks for surgeries.
Camille flew home on
Tuesday. she flew
on the "Coug" prop, and
sent this image to Jay via
Instagram!
GO COUGS!
Ty and Anna are honeymooning
in BALI!
Jay stood in for "the missing Tyler"
at a softball game on Tuesday.
(we went, of course!)
i have today off! Jay and i are going to hit the Nordstrom sale.
he has to update his on camera wardrobe. (the station gives him a yearly clothing allowance.)
our family wedding / staycation has been
wonderful!
Uncle Jay bought Holland a big girl bike for her birthday!
under the supervision of The Chocolate Gousse, Mr D picked backyard blueberries for breakfast,
this morning!
the weather has
been over
the top perfect!
Seattle Summers
traditionally do not begin
until after the fourth of
July. this year, the month
of June held only 7 days
with rainfall.
so far, July has been
flawless!
Jay took this image after Ty and Anna's rehearsal dinner.
we are winding down...
Mr D returns to work tomorrow.
Jay drives back to Boise Sunday morning.
to get away from the pending adieux!
let's
change
the
subject!
BIJOUX?
yes!
DÉCLARATION COLLIER?
oh...yes!

most of you know that
many years ago, i was
a fashion jewelry
buyer for Frederick &
Nelson, ( a division of
Marshall Field and
Company.)
{to die for...Miriam Haskell!}
throughout the wedding
festivities, it brought great joy to my
heart to see a new generation
{Christian Dior...inspired by René Jules Lalique...killer!}
each bridesmaid
chose their own interpretation of
of a gold "statement necklace".
the looks stated were from
modern to mid century to vintage.
a beautiful play of golden patinas
on classic navy.blue!
{ tailored links and baubles...Anne Klein}
statement necklaces are available in every price range, everywhere!
Etsy is filled with vintage designer déclaration colliers!
Baublebar packages it's moderately priced baubles in a pretty dust bag...and...often
with a little gift on the side!
some of you may be able to dig into your past and resurrect an old statement piece or two!
my amazingly creative blog friend Tamera Beardsley has a tutorial on how
to make your own statement necklace déclaration collier! here!
...found the centerpiece for mine in Mom's jewelry box!
have a wonderful weekend!
withLove!
Sorry you were sick...but so glad you did not miss any thing. I love all your pictures. I love big statement jewelry too. Blessings to you and your family, xoxo,Susie

WOW! Up my alley, tous ces bijoux, ces colliers! Les parures m'enchantent, surtout!
ReplyDeleteLynne darlin', I am glad to hear you are better! Those steroids DO do the trick, don't they! Everyone looks happy and healthy, and I love how that chocolate sentry is sniffing out the blueberries to verify that they are edible...someone's gotta do it! teeeee
HAPPY DAY dear one! Anita
You have been a very busy lady… The necklaces are spectacular … I made one a few years ago using my mom's old brooches, turned out great and I love it. Yours will be gorgeous with that piece from your mom's jewelry box! Enjoy the weekend Lynne… glad you are feeling better.
ReplyDeleteCiao bella, Mary
Loved all the images and that Tamara is SO clever!
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear you were feeling better to enjoy the wedding. Nice (plane) shot and good to hear there are still 'walk-on' flights!
ReplyDeleteI so enjoyed catching up with you and all that's going on in your busy life! That jewelry is lovely! I have some 'vintage' things......it would be fun to make them into a 'statement piece!' Blueberries from the back yard....lovely!
ReplyDeleteSo happy they were able to take care of your problem with a steroid shot so that you were able to enjoy the festivities. I am staycationing this year. So just going to plan some day outings. xo Laura
