Last Night Or The Night Before That, I Won't Say Which Night

These are some of my most recent jewelry acquisitions (mostly through eBay) + wearing the matte black Zoya nail polish I got during their winter giveaway.

From left to right:

∞ silver Noir stud ring with an old silver band I've hand forever

∞ canoe shaped dead pawn Zuni (maybe... hard to tell with dead pawn, but inlaid work like this is often Zuni) silver and turquoise ring (I feel like it's 1920s since it feels kind of art deco...) - one of my favorite pieces

∞ another inlaid silver/turquoise ring

∞ on my right hand I have this round silver/turquoise ring (which frankly I am not even sure if this one is actual turquoise - probably acrylic, but I kinda like it - not terribly unique, though)

∞ then my absolute favorite, which is this super primitive/rustic ring that reminds me of a shield; this one is so funky (the shank's pretty crooked, too), I like to think that maybe it was made my someone who was first learning how to make jewelry - it's heavy and shows the natural stones beautifully

∞ and finally, a tiny silver band with green turquoise inlay

Just realized I forgot to take a picture of the awesome silver bracelet my aunt got me in India (it screws on and off instead of a traditional clasp) - I'll get around to that soon!

In A Lady Who Lingers, Saying She Is Lost

Hey ladies and gents! Hope you had a lovely New Year's Eve/Day. I drunkenly played board games with friends... so, you know - PRETTY WILD. obviously. hah

I've been really immersing myself in things I love this winter. I usually waver (style-wise) somewhere between a hippie and a punk (with twinges of goth, county, and classic prep, I suppose), but I've been basically drowning myself in the 1970s lately.

Music-wise, I cleaned out a record store near my house that was closing with everything from Big Brother and the Holding Company to the Yardbirds to the Dead Weather, so my ears are in a pretty good place lately. This has translated to platforms, boots, and bellbottoms.

I've also been stalking vintage turquoise rings on eBay. I've bought four so far, but two are still in the mail so I'll show you those once they have all arrived.

Here's what I've been feeling lately:

Dirty Hair Halo, lovely as always

Nasty Gal (except Neil Diamond? I've been wearing my Neil Young shirt to death, though)

George and Patti

again

from La Garconne Noire

cheers!
