Vacation Jewels

I know many of you probably have the same problem that I have. Hate taking my expensive jewels on vacation! The thought of leaving my wedding rings or diamond earrings in a hotel room or losing them in the ocean makes me feel ill. I always make sure that I have "fill ins" for vacation. These are my pieces that can pass as being real but really are not.  I am going to show you a few of my go to pieces for every vacation. This Deco ring by Stella & Dot is gorgeous alone or even more beautiful with a stackable ring added to it.
These $19 studs look like real 1.5 ct. diamonds and a gorgeous alternative to the real thing! 
If I lose them...no biggie at all! These are my everyday studs. Being that all Stella&Dot pieces are nickel free they are a perfect and safe alternative to my real diamonds. 


                                                                   
I like to keep my necklaces simple. I always wear my signature engravable necklace that can be layered with just about anything.

Introduction

 Hi everyone, We have been in Orlando for almost three weeks. I can't believe it has been that long! Twenty days tomorrow to be exact. This is still a stressful time. Between real estate fiascos (selling a house up north) and renting troubles (our current home while we decide where to be more permanent-not quite perfect) life has been chaotic. We have also had a troublesome moving experience (PODS' customer service is a Kafkaesque nightmare).  The difficulties we have had in leaving everything and moving is counterbalanced by the new and familar experiences we are having.  Daily trips to the Disney parks and outings to the beach fill our days. So while everything is still a mess this is an adventure. Hopefully things will even out soon.  We are living in a very nice part of Orlando called Dr. Phillips,  just minutes from the parks. Apparently Dr. Phillip Phillips was a doctor and philanthropist that was (note the following is totally taken from Wikipedia but inser

Inspiring Innovation

 2015 was a big year of change for our family. We moved from the northeast to central Florida with 3 children and one of them was a baby at the time.  Tod is a patent attorney as many of my friends and family already know. He has been in the "patent business" for 19 years. His experience includes 6 years as an examiner at the U.S. PTO while attending law school at George Washington Law, 12 years in private practice,  to his current patent attorney day job for a major corporation . Over time we have been asked many questions about the patent industry in general. Women have come to us with fabulous ideas and questions more than anyone else.   One thing we have been thinking long and hard about is a new business venture. I have worn many hats since we have been married...wife, mom, teacher, event planner, Stella&Dot stylist and self-proclaimed fundraising guru for non-profits. We have always had the desire to help others; whether it be helping a friend raise money to get

Amphicars

These amphicars are some of the coolest things we have ever seen! These boat/cars are adjacent to the Boathouse and can be rented for a ride around the lake along with your own personal captain. There is a funny story behind these cool amphicars. My mom and I were having drinks on the Boathouse dock when she saw them for the first time (actually her 2nd time). She went crazy because she told me this story about how she saw one of these amphicars in 1964 drive out of a lake in Pennsylvania! She and my grandparents thought this was going to be the future...although they obviously are not very efficient and never made it very far in either the boat or car industry.  Still, they are pretty awesome to see in person and we hope to go for a ride someday!                                              The cost is $125 for 3-4 guests and includes your own private Car Captain. In true Disney fashion, they have purchased original amphicars from across the country. Each one is detai
