5 Things I Love: DahliaLynn

7.12.2012

Today we have Jessica from DahliaLynn sharing her "5 Things I Love" with us. I discovered Jessica's blog a while back (thru SSE) and have been obsessed ever since. Her style inspires me continually.... take a look at this outfit, this one and this one. See what I mean?!? Super inspiring.

Also, she has recently started a series called "Love You" that asks bloggers to answer this one question:"Why do you love you?" Here is the one Jessica wrote, but I have really enjoyed reading the other bloggers' answers, its really uplifting! Anyway! Without further ado, here she is!

Hello Sweets!

My name is Jessica Reasons, and I write a little blog called DahliaLynn.  I was so excited when Emily asked me to take a look around my house, and share 5 of the things that I Iove in my home. So aside form my sweet husband and pups, which are permanent fixtures in the homestead, these are a few of my favorite things. 
First off, my jewel collection.  I have shared a picture of two of my favorite J.Crew treasures both old and new.  I love statement pieces and jewelry with a vintage, bohemian vibe.  You know that old saying before you leave the house you should take one piece of jewelry off?  Yeah I don't understand that one. 


Second, my new antique chandelier.  I have been dreaming of the day when I would have a home to fill with special light fixtures.  This one also created a special memory, as it took not just my husband, but brother and father to get that baby up there. 

Third, my Penquin Classics book collection.  I let out a little shriek the first time I saw these ladies in Anthropologie.  I have been collecting them ever since.  Hopefully you are in on the secret that they sell on Amazon.com for much cheaper. 


Fourth, my linen meets burlap necklace busts.  Did I mention that I make and selljewelry?  I have two separate lines.  DahliaLynn Handmade which is my line of pretties that I have designed and handmade, and DahliaLynn Vintage which is my line of vintage pretties that I have found and refurbished.  For so long, I just had necklaces lying all over the place, so finding these busts was a real treat because they are pretty and practical.



Five.....GOLDEN RINGS.  Just kidding, but I could not resist typing that.  Five, my slowly growing collection of all sequin dresses.  There is nothing exactly like throwing on an entire ensemble of sequins.  I mean, who doesn't want to look like a giant reflector meets disco ball. 


So there you have them.  Five of the things in my home that I love.  I hope you have enjoyed this little glimpse into my world.  Happy Thursday!
Jessica

In other news, tomorrow I am off to Boston! Going to unplug for a few days and get some good QT with the fam. See you later!
