Beads, beads, beads!

I photographed a few more treasures of mine, this time all showcasing some lovely beadwork.

A beautiful vintage purse that my Gran bought for me at a flea market in South Africa. My grandparents are serious shoppers, not in frequency but in quality.

A few of my sweetest waist jewels. Believe it or not, I remember when each was acquired and can recount a little story belonging especially to them. I know, I'm a little crazy... and come to think of it, I believe much of what I own has a particularly fascinating story :). Very deserving, when you love to "Dress Like a Cupcake Should Feel".

This belt belonged to my Gran, a very chic and elegant women that I would adore to resemble when my years reach close to 80. It was actually a part of the outfit she wore to my mother's wedding. She had a very, very tiny waist. Puts mine to utter shame!
