Personalized Necklace

Allow me to introduce you to my current favorite piece of jewelry:


A handmade, distressed sterling silver necklace, personalized with my daughter's name from the Etsy Shop Jewelry by Katie M.

My friend Jill introduced me to Katie M's jewelry after her son Brady was born. We were chatting at her house and all of a sudden I noticed a small silver tag hanging from her neck with the word "Brady" stamped on it. It was so beautiful it took my breath away.

I had to have one.

Now this may sound a little crazy but wearing Kate's name around my neck makes me feel a little closer to her when we're apart. Plus it goes great with my Mom Uniform: Loose-fitting top? Check. Cardigan? Check. Added distraction? Colorful beaded necklace, heart-fluttering personalized necklace, designer handbag--check, check, check!


Top: Banana Republic
Cardigan: Old Navy
Jeans: Gap
Shoes: Nicole from DSW
Beaded Necklace: American Eagle
Personalized "Kate" necklace: Jewelry by Katie M
Handbag: Kate Spade

Very cute outfit!
Love your 845 article too. Bless you for giving the gift of life to so many little ones.

I can relate to the "strapped to a pump" and the leaking all over parts though it was several years ago for me. Your letter to your breasts made me laugh too. I never had much there either until my son was born.

I love the necklace! I like the one with 4 discs -- I would put my puppies' names on them! :)

You are too cute. I love the way that necklace is distressed. It looks so unique and believe me, I understand the need to feel close to your child even when you're not around!
