Aaaaaaaaaah. Mojito!

This is one of summer's simplest pleasures: a chilled mojito made with fresh mint straight from my garden. Cheers!

Trading Chronicles : teepetals

A few weeks ago, I've decided to brighten up my summer a little by doing some trades with some fellow Etsy sellers. It is such a fun way to discover new shops and get great stuff! As a result, I've been in contact with some amazing, talented artists.

Teepetals is one of them for sure! Her use of gorgeous, colorful fabrics for wallets, pouches and clutches is awesome.
In this very fun swap I got a really fun Sushi print pouch. I just looooooove it! But I do have to say that I might have to give it up to give as a gift to a pregnant friend who is craving sushi these days but can't have any....

Here are some other beautiful pieces from teepetals' shop.

Flowery Summer Earrings

For me, the perfect summer earrings have to be really simple, yet elegant. They have to have just the right amount of sparkle and color to make any summer outfit bloom. And Etsy is full of beautiful flowery summer earrings. I wish I could buy them all and have a beautiful bouquet of summer earrings!
