juice detox prep.

I gained weight again and feel like poop.
Hopefully this won't fail like my insanity attempt but!! JUICE DETOX FOR A WEEK. if i last that long. going to the supermarket after work today to buy a bag of carrots, apples, cucumber, beets and lemons to juice. I'm also adding a piece of ginger with every juice since that's what the recipe's I've looked up had. I'm not doing pure juice only for breakfast and dinner but for lunch i'll have a spinach salad with cheese, apples and dried cranberries for lunch or a whole grapefruit and lots of water. Some people are gonna say I'm starving myself but it's just a ONE WEEK DETOX. :) wish me luck!!

Mom had this baby since i was young, so it's well over 10 years old and still works like a charm!! looked gross since it hasn't been used for over a week but after cleaning it, it looks good as gently used!  I just washed it so it's taken appart. Forgot a part in the picture but you'll see it tomorrow when it's fully assembled.

Berricle Promise Ring+Bracelet

Since my SO changed his mind and decided he wanted to get 'officially' engaged within the next 2 years instead of the 1, he agreed to get me a promise ring instead. I didn't want to spend that much on a ring that'll get replace after a couple years so i wanted to find an inexpensive CZ ring.

After browsing Weddingbee boards, a lot of people recommended www.berricle.com so i decided to give it a try.

I ordered this sterling silver bezel set CZ solitaire + box. It may seem big but the center stone is actually 5mm and about 0.46ct. It looks nothing like my dream engagement ring but I kinda like this style.

There were mixed reviews on the sizing especially since they barely offer half sizes. I'm a 5.25 but i usually order 5.5. I can fit a 5 snuggly, so  i decided to go with a 5 since it's a thin band.

For our 6month semi-anniversary I received my very first gift from D. It was a yellow gold bracelet with white gold hearts (can't find a pic *tears*). I never took it off once since he gave it to me until it fell off by itself almost two years later while we were shopping at the mall. I was so depressed and cried since it was the very first gift I received from him and was supposed to be my "Something Old" when we get married. 

He got me a swarovski bracelet for my birthday this wear but it wasn't something i could wear everyday. Since berricle had a buy 2 get 25% off sale, I decided to get this bracelet also. 

The first picture is of a Tiffanyco bracelet designed by Elsa Peretti (or something). It's retail is $2600 and made of real gold.

This second one is the one i ordered of Berricle. I'm planning on removing that stupid 1 inch extender since i'm sure 7 inches is enough to fit my wrist. I kind of laughed at how they look so much alike and even the names were similar. The Tiffany's bracelet is called "Diamonds by the Yard" while the Berricle one is called "CZ by the Yard" haha. 

Everything got shipped today so I'm SO EXCITED for them to come in the mail :) 

Review coming soon ^^

THE RING!

Decided the ring i want! I also plan on getting it soldered either before the wedding or after. hahahahaa i'm years ahead but who says a girl can't dream?

I want a cushion cut, 6mm (1.1ct but 6mm would be .75ct if it was a round cut)
With double prongs (not pictures) and Palladium (so i don't have to ever get it re-dipped with rhodium)

IT COMES WITH A MATCHING BAND (which i plan to order and get soldered)

*waits*
