{i spy} LovMely

ok... super stoked, i just stumbled upon Mel's shop while browsing my local etsy designers in the orange county area. now i'm pretty low key fashion-wise ( think t-shirt, jeans, and flip flops) but i always love having something small on that is loud, colorful, or showy... and most of the time it's a piece of my jewelry...

but now i've found LovMely on Etsy, and her acessories are awesome! some of them are far more dramatic than what i can swing, but everything she makes is beautiful... for example:

the Jenna Headband - no way i could swing it, but i think it'd be great for the right lady!

i can wait, below i have these 3 beauties on their way to me as my bday present to myself!

Sarah Peacock Headband

Guinea Headband

Golden Peacock Headband

go check out her shop and tell her i sent you!

a clearly amazing idea

it's no secret i love to travel... i just don't get the opportunity to do so very often, but man if i did - this little card would come in handy!

forgive me if i'm behind the times - but an offer for a trial membership for a CLEAR card just appeared in my email from SPG. and if you've spend much time in the airports - as i recently have (unfortunately), this might be a worthwhile investment for any frequent travelers!

to my understanding, it's the equivalent of a Disney Fastpass for grown -ups! =)

no really, it's expected to get you through security screenings and to your gate in approxamately 5 minutes! at $199 it seems a little stiff, but that's a years membership and if you travel even once a month i bet it more than pays for itself in the form of stress and anxiety relief!

... now if only it would rescue your checked bags and bring them to you at the curb in 5 mintues too... that would make it the ultimate card!
