I really wanted to do this post on July 27th…. that’s the day of the Opening Ceremony for the Olympics! But I totally could not wait. I mean, I have caught the Olympics bug.
I do enjoy the Winter Olympics, but Summer Olympics is just super special. I’m so so so soooooo excited!
It’s really hard to believe that I had just graduated high school and was ready to off to Georgetown for my freshman year during the 2008 Olympics. Talk about time flying!!!
In the spirit of the upcoming games, this post is all things gold.
What’s everyone’s favorite events? I’m partial towards the rowing events, but I also LOVE gymnastics!!!!!!!!!!! Woooooo!
xoxo
PS There are so many idioms with “gold” in it:
good as gold, going for the gold, all that glitters is not gold, heart of gold…..

a little bit of life, a little bit of style, and everything in between.
I cannot believe either it's already been four years! Love the Jack Rodgers 🙂

There is a necklace that looks just like that at J Crew outlets right now!
LOVE this! I can't wait for the Olympics 🙂
I have been more into gold recently… maybe it's the Olympics secretly getting to me 😉
Love the crab pin necklace!

Who can resist the thrill of the swimming events?
With all things gold and your jewelry selections, my fun gold piece are Love Knot earrings. They go with everything!
Love all the summer Olympic games but would say I prefer swimming, volleyball and gymnastic events the most. I hear ya on catching the Olympic fever – I've had it since I returned from study abroad in London. And after watching the Olympic trials this weekend – woah, I'm hooked tight on the Olympic chain.
I love watching rowing and gymnastics, too! That Kate Spade watch is so so adorable!
I love watching gymnastics. Love the gold chain bracelet.
I love gold and I love this set! I need to buy myself a pair of those Jack Rogers sandals. <3
At the risk of straying from the pack, I have to say I'm a much bigger fan of the winter Olympics. I'm a lover of snow and winter sports, so it only makes sense that I like the winter games better. Besides, I don't think anything can top the 2010 Olympics. I'm a proud Vancouverite who was lucky enough to be in town for the games and is still experiencing post-Olympic depression. Watching it on TV just won't seem as exciting.
