Designer Jewelry For Less

I always get really upset for the designer's sake when I see a knock-off of one of their products sold on another site. I know I would be really ticked if I saw my own design was altered a little bit and resold for cheap. Recently, Forever21 has been guilty of selling knock-offs of designs from jewelry designers like Lila Rice, Vega Jewelry, and Fendi. I think that it's really wrong and dishonest. 

Where do you stand on the issue? Fair game, or outrage-worthy?

Welcoming the Warmer Weather

The weather here in Philadelphia is bouncing back and forth, like much of the East Coast, between wet and rainy days, and days that make you want to sit poolside. However, my heart is set on the warmer days of swimming in the ocean, laying in the sun trying to get my pale skin half a shade darker, walking barefoot until my feet ache, and nights filled with Country concerts that make my eyes light up and make the rest of the world disappear.

Below is a collection of photographs that I have gathered from Pinterest that put me in the Summer mode.
