New Stuff I bought


This week I had a sterling silver bracelet put on the watch face above. It is 10 years old, and was a gift on my 64th Birthday. I came with 3 stretch beaded bands. Blue, Red and Black/Silver. Over the years each of them broke at one time or another... I took it to Terra the Silversmith and had her make this one.  Below is my new bathing suit. Put Your Sunglasses ON now!  the shirring on the side allows for HIDING the PARTS of me that I don't like.  The color is good, because it will allow the lifeguard to find me if I sink to the bottom of the pool....😁


PRIOR POST  on the watches. I used them in 2017 for the time change post... two faces, 3 bands. I prefer the beads but they don't make them any more. NO I don't know how to make my own.

the photo said time for a change so I bought these shoes....

The gold sandals are really pretty and will go with anything. They make you look a bit like a Genie. The watch face is pretty, and the beads are really lovely on it. Too bad they broke! The bathing suit is really pretty, too! I love both colors and print. I love everything, and would have bought the same things. I like going shopping with you!!

All good, but I have little sandal envy now. Please, no sinking, no matter how gorgeous the lifeguard. YAM xx

I like all your new things especially the shoes and togs (OZ for bathing suit)

That's a nice watch and I like the beaded bands. That would be so much easier than trying to buckle a watch band.
Cute shoes. I saw a pair of sandals a couple weeks ago that I wanted but I talked myself out of them.

Shop til you drop post!! I love the sandals and the watch...especially the red
beaded band. I don't think I've ever seen a watch with a band like this

Hello,

Nice purchases. I like the new watch face, it is pretty. The bathing suit and sandals are cute. Have a happy day!

It's good that you could get a new bracelet for your pretty watch. Attractive pattern on your new swim suit. We've had warm weather here - not typical UK weather for April and it's likely to change and get cold and rainy. You're blessed to live in a warm climate.

LOVE that swim suit! Where did you ever find it?
Your watch face is so sweet; I love its back-story.

Nice to see all your "new" things, Sandra and thanks for sharing. That new bracelet should last longer than the older ones and it's lovely. I liked the colorful swimwear and the regal sandals too.

Such a pretty watch, band and all. Your swimsuit is lovely, colorful and cheery, same for your sandals.

Cute suit! I like the watch. I'm in the market for a new watch. Mark thinks I'm crazy but I can't go without a watch on when I leave the house.

Very nice what you had done to the watch, it is pretty. I like your bathing suit...very cheery and uplifting colors. Cute sandals and kudos to you for being able to wear that strap on your toe...I would not get along well with it on my toe. Hugs
