Fabulous Euro Finds Friday

Today is all about Euro fashion! Yes I know summer is almost over, but I just love the bright Euro-inspired colors and wanted to highlight some great finds on both ETSY & eBay. Besides, it still feels like summer where we are and probably will until January or February. LOL! :o)

Here are some amazing Euro children's outfits and accessories for both child & adult I found on eBay.


This gorgeous set is by babyblubonnets. I think it has a faintly asian feel to it as well.




I found this fantastic hoodie set by gigglez-n-grinz. Euro-style hoodie sets are oh so hip right now!





Next up, gotta have a hip handbag right? So here is a fabulous Euro-inspired tote by prettyinpink320. Check out her scarves too.





On to ETSY where I found some lovely Euro accessories.

The first find is this really pretty pillow for a girls room made by vanessaandcompany.





I also adore these clippies made by adourcouture.





This Euro-colored flower by pamperingbeki would look great on a denim jacket or purse.




And last but not least is my very own Euro bling. A beautiful Swarovski crystal fringe bracelet made with those bright trademark Euro colors. These pictures really don't do it justice. Oh and it's on sale too so go check it out! :oP





Next week it will be all about Halloween BOOtique!! I just LOVE Halloween. This year will be so much fun since it's the first time my girls will go trick or treating! :o)

Thursday Treasures & Tags

I snagged my 2nd Treasury on ETSY today! This one is called Don't be Koi. teehee. I try to think of unique and pretty ideas. Hope this one is a hit! Just click on the pic below to go to my Treasury. :o)





So I've been tagged again....twice! :oP
The first one who tagged me is Susan of Sweet Imaginations. Check out her amazing artwork when you visit her(and you must visit). She's so talented!

Ok so this tag is the Middle Name Game and here are the rules:
"Players, you must list one fact that is somehow relevant to your life for each letter of your middle name. If you don’t have a middle name, use the middle name you would have liked to have had. When you are tagged you need to write your own blog post containing your own middle name game facts. At the end of your blog post, you need to choose one person for each letter of your middle name to tag. Don’t forget to leave them a comment telling them they’re tagged, and to read your blog."

My Middle Name is: Christine

C - COFFEE I LOVE coffee!!
H - HAIR I hate my frizzy curly hair.
R - RED For many years I dyed my hair red. Haven't for a few years now but I do have natural reddish highlights.
I - IPOD I have an iPod mini and I LOVE it.
S - SUSHI is my favorite food.
T - TWINS I have beautiful twin daughters. :o)
I - IMAGINATION I've always had a vivid imagination and I still get scared in the dark when I'm alone.
N - NOUVEAU I'm a big fan of art nouveau.
E - ERIKA My first name is Erika :oP (Yah I know, but hey I have a long name!)

So because of my long name I've decided to once again break the rules. I do that alot, huh? I'm only going to tag one person using the first letter of my middle name. Sooooo.....
I tag Megan of Creative Outlet Designs! :o)

The 2nd person who tagged me is Ellie of LittleWanda Crafts. However, since I've done this meme already, and just recently, I'm going to refer my readers to that post and not tag anyone else. Gosh I know, I'm being kind of a bummer today huh? Sorry about that. :o(
Have lots to do so I'll be back tomorrow with Fabulous Finds Friday!

Back to School

Today Mr. Smarty Pants(my son) went back to school for his 2nd year. He was very excited! It's a brand new (just been built) school and one of his friends who lives on the street behind us is also in his class. He wore an appliqued shirt I bought for him, carried a new Pirates of the Carribean backpack & lunch tote and wore matching Pirates sneakers. He was smiling from ear to ear(I would imagine all day long). Here's some fun pics. :o)











Isn't this shirt cute? It was made by littledressmaker on eBay. If you knew my son, you would agree that this shirt is perfect for him. He loved it(my future "Jim Carey" comedian)! LOL!
