i've recently done up some new collages for my instagram feed and website. they feature selected dresses from my collections and are shown with suggested pairings of jewelry from my oddments collection. below, examples of two:

perhaps you've noticed, too, that there is an un-official heart theme within darling dearie. from my heart-shaped vintage button earrings, heart-shaped wool milagros brooches, to the heart-themed "this and that" note card sets and a-door-nments. heart-shaped items have inevitably become a part of my life as well as my jewelry collection starting at a young age. many a piece of heart-shaped jewelry was bestowed either from family or beaus, though i also found myself inexplicably drawn to and purchasing my own heart-shaped items (including jewelry), too. it's interesting to note, however, that when mr. dearie and i became engaged, my preference was for a pear-shaped engagement ring and not a heart!

as hearts are such a universal sign of love and affection, it only seems appropriate that they embody a great number of my collections. and as you know, a great deal of love goes into each and every darling dearie garment and accessory, as well!

in the dearie household, we are lucky enough to live with our very own cupid: miss josephine dearie herself! every day is valentine's day with her around, though don't be mistaken by the innocent expression: sometimes that little cupid also becomes a little more devilish than sweet.
