My New Necklace

I recently found out that Mr. Branflake's ancestral line is linked to royalty.
While doing his genealogy, he stumbled across a marriage that took place in an English castle back in the day when only royalty married in castles.

And then I had a dream where all countries in the world had their own kings and queens because democracy and republics just weren't doing it for any of us.
And do you know who the king of USA was?
The Burger King guy.


So naturally, I've been thinking a lot about royalty and the fact that I'm pretty much linked to the crown. I saw this beauty on Modcloth yesterday, fell in love, and bought it without a second thought. 

Clearly, I'm thinking I have a royal bank ledger.
Just kidding, this lovely bauble only cost twenty bucks.
That's about five Burger King Whoppers.




And... that's my profound thought of the day.
Go USA!
Can't you imagine me wearing this on a hot date with Mr. Branflake?

USA! USA! How funny it was the Burger King guy! He is forever linked to my friend Johnny as his gf posted a picture of them side by side, while johnny was wearing her BK crown. They looked identical!
Such a lovely bauble (and hooray for only $20!) Happy weekend!

Ana Degenaar said...

I too would be daydreaming about all things royalty too, but simpler is better! xo

megan lane said...

Anna said...

it's a beauty. :)

Patrice said...

Move over Will & Kate, it's Mr. and Mrs. Branflake! Lol. That necklace is awesome too. I love knotted jewelry.

Morgan Stone said...

Love the necklace, and at only $20 that's a crazy good deal! Also, I think the Burger King man is the creepiest thing EVER! I hope he never shows up in my dreams because it would immediately transform into a nightmare.

THE ALTERNATIVE WIFE said...

Haha seriously? Burger King? That's too sad, isn't it? LOL. Love that you're pretty much a royal. And what a perfect piece for a royal to wear. :)

Happy weekend! xoxo

I think it's time to claim your ancestral rights–and that necklace is just the start! Next, demand French pastries for breakfast from Siri and tell her you want the staff to assemble in the foyer for a meeting about their attire!

VintageDanielle said...

That's a gorgeous ring! How cool are you do be married to royalty, look out Princess Kate haha.

drollgirl said...

lol. so you are linked to royalty, eh? sadly i don't have to trace my ancestry too far to back to see that i am linked to hillbillies.

p.s. the necklace is fab and the price is right!

Vanessa Innes said...

very lovely bauble! and i think i should start comparing my purchase prices to whoppers! :-)

SabinePsynopsis said...

I can totally imagine you wearing this gorgeous necklace, Tiffany!
(When I was a child my dad always said we were related to the Queen because of some ancestry line... Maybe that's why I had to move to the island? I think your discovery is a call for you to move here!)

Kate @ Daffodils said...

Fit for a queen!

Andi of My Beautiful Adventures said...

It's absolutely stunning!

BonBon Rose Girls Kristin said...

OMG, that's fabulous!

Blond Duck said...

So you're a princess!

Love your pie cake! :)

Debby Steele said...

Ha ha ha. You are too darn cute. Yes, the Burger King guy is the king of USA... kind of pathetic, huh? Perhaps hubby needs not to refer to you as the queen! xo

Francesca said...
