New is the new

A few new things...

I just ordered these rings from day-lab, one gold finish and one silver finish. I've mentioned day-lab before, and although I don't necessarily fawn over everything that Amy carries, I can't help but return for more subtle, vintage-inspired jewelry. Come to think of it, I wore this ring from day-lab today.

Thanks to this great big world we call the internet, I have a new blog in my daily mix: 10engines.

And thanks to James at 10engines for introducing me to rebeldata. There are some amazing images here, a few of which include hand-painted signs, like this gem:

Aside from my epic affordable bag quest (I might cave in to that brown Urban backpack yet), I've also embarked on an epic tea quest. Original Good Earth is perhaps my favorite tea of all time: sweet AND spicy. Alas, Shaws has some aversion to stocking this deliciousness, so I've had to resort to ordering it online. I love this great big world!

shorty let me tell you bout my only vice/ it has to do with lots of lovin' and it ain't nothin' nice

Q-Tip is killing it with The Renaissance. Seriously, a mix of new Q-Tip and old Q-Tip (hello Tribe Called Quest classic "Electric Relaxation"!) has helped me get through these snowy January afternoons.

And my man Otis is always in the mix.

Righteous Ring

I recently purchased this Nouveau Vintage Facet Signet ring from day-lab and I can't get enough of it! I have it in the 14KT gold finish, and I've worn it practically every day since it arrived in the mail. I'm tempted to buy one or two more, just in case I lose what is now my favorite ring in the world!

day-lab always has an excellent selection of vintage and vintage-inspired jewelry at reasonable prices. Check it out!
