First off, I just had to snap a pic of these lillies that have been blooming like crazy. Just love having fresh flowers around!
And I also wanted to share these earrings I purchased at Target yesterday when I really just ran in to buy camp chairs for watching soccer (isn't that how it is). I know they've been re-doing their jewelry section displays and packaging and it all looks nice but I just haven't been finding anything lately. When I saw these though, I thought I'd give them a try. They're bigger than I would normally wear but they are so light and the beading and wires are so delicate that they don't look or feel heavy. I could absolutely see these at Anthropologie for three times the price.
I've been on an orange kick lately and the colors just appealed to me. I also think I may have been inspired by all they big ol' earring sported on the RHOA. That or watching old Cher videos on youtube. Anyway, I wore them last night for girls' night out dinner & a movie and thought they were fun. They are priced at $7.99.
I thought this was interesting - I haven't noticed a "14 & under" warning before
Happy Saturday!

I love lillies too- I always get the white ones for the bedroom. Nice earrings but you are right- that is a strange warning. They probably had some bizarre lawsuit from a 13 year old who fell and puntured herself or something along those lines....
ReplyDeleteThe lillies are gorgeous! Before I moved down to the city my house in the burbs was surrounded by lillies in the spring and fall. Sigh. Miss them! Nice earrings too. :)
ReplyDeleteAll of our lilies are done for the year and I miss them! Yours look great!
ReplyDeleteSuch pretty flowers! The earrings are super-cute too. Nice find!
ReplyDeleteNothing better than fresh flowers in the house. Your lilies go right along with your current orange theme, haha:) love the earrings, i think they would look cute with a plum colored dress i have (jcrew one from last fall) so i think i need to check them out. Hope girl's night out was fun!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful flowers! Cute earrings. I never noticed that warning on earrings there before either! Strange. Makes me wonder what prompted that! Target has some very pretty dainty necklaces right now, but I thought I saw them for $49.99. That's a bit high for Target for me though.
ReplyDeleteThe flowers are so pretty! I like the earrings..the colors in them are great for fall.
ReplyDeleteThe warning has to do with all the new lead legislation that has gone recently taken effect. It was passed in '08, but stores have to start compliance in '09.
ReplyDeleteIts specifically regarding children, and products that may be consumed by them, toys, jewelry etc. Likely, the earrings are electroplated lead, and therefore need a warning. Target is def going over and beyond to adhere to the guidelines, as I wouldn't imagine those earrings being worn by children. ;-)
Gorgeous lilies!
ReplyDeleteWay cute earrings - thanks for sharing the weight info b/c they do look like they could run heavy.
love earrings. so cute for fall!
