I'm a Wealthy Countessa, For Reals

Sigh. I’m just all kinds of obsessed with shiny things right now. I think I might spend part of the weekend pretending to be wealthy and visiting various jewelry stores so I can try things on. Does anyone have any big plans (or anything less sad than what I’m planning)?

I'll take them all please. Thanks you. :) Your plan sounds like a great weekend to me! I'm heading to the beach for a quick getaway.

I Love looking at jewelry stores. I did so last night because I took my wedding set to get cleaned. I wish I could have bought something too LOL.

Annemarie said...

Such a beautiful post! The perfect photos to start the weekend off right :) Hugs xx

laura said...

Oh man, I like shiny. The second picture is just wow! And I wish I could go into stores to just try stuff on. It's a really horrible mentality of mine, but I feel like I always have to get something if I spend a lot of time trying stuff on.

Sweet buckets of sparkliness. My coveted item of the moment is not quite as sparkly, but I want it a lot anyway:

Shiny, pretty things always get me feeling happy and ready to shop for some.

Sara said...

Oh that sounds amazing! I want some ruby slippers ;)

Lisa Lisa Lisa said...

You are too cute. I think trying on jewelry is a fantastic way to spend a weekend! Will you be having desserts too? I think you should.

Unfortunately, my weekend plans are possibly more sad. I just got back from being at home for a week to a pile of homework (you know the kind) and lots and lots of work.

Pamela said...

Wait? You're unbelievably rich? Have I told you recently how much I adore you? *bats eyelashes*

Claire said...

I always adore shiny, sparkly things. Your weekend plans definitely sound totally like something I would do.

I have had a rough couple weeks at work. I worked for 12 hours yesterday so I am being lazy this weekend. I plan to watch Toy Story 3 tonight.
