The Birds and The Bees

Feb 16, 2010

I’ve been hunting for a little pendant necklace for what feels like forever.  Recently, my search led me to an Etsy store called birdzNbeez.  This little jewelry maker takes adorable to a whole new level with a line of sweet and affordable pieces that are perfect for the girly girl in all of us.

This piece is called the Prop Locket because of it’s propeller design.  Like a number of her creations, this one is Steampunk inspired.  A sub-genre of science fiction, Steampunk creations often have visible mechanics such as gears and levers.  The tiny gears on this locket are so delicate that they make industrial look pretty.  

Many of the other pieces feature the same delicate designs.  Some of her necklaces even have tiny sparrows embedded in the chain to add a little extra whimsy.  And after years of searching, I treated myself to a little brass compass necklace with sparrow detail.  

But is it really treating yourself if the necklace is just $19?  All of the pieces at birzNbeez are imminently affordable making them suitable for a Hill budget.

    If you only take the time to master one beauty product, those intended for your lips is where you can’t go wrong. Lipstick is the most basic of all makeup products for the lip. Sometimes slightly waxy in texture, it adds color and definition to your smile.

Beauty Review: Bondi Boost

As I age, I notice many changes in my body. Most are fine. Some are frustrating. Like many women, I lost a lot of hair in my postpartum phase. Being anemic for more than a year after, it didn’t grow back in to its former glory. So I’ve tried any number of shampoos, pills and […]

The Find: Shirts That Don’t Gape

I remember when Rochelle Behrens launched The Shirt — a button-down blouse with anti-gape technology (a patented internal button that keeps the look smooth). The idea seemed brilliant, but at the time, my bust didn’t require an extra button. One baby later, I understand the need for some extra security.

The Mondays: March 18, 2024

This weekend was a tricky one. The warm weather and bright sunshine of last weekend disappeared in a flurry of wet snow trapping our very active 18-month-old in the house with us. Plus, our babysitter cancelled, so neither of us feels ready for the week ahead. But in between making mac-and-cheese and watching Aristocats for […]
