Hey Y’all! I know it’s been a while but life went from slow with nothing happening to absolutely crazy! So here’s an update on life & posting!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Y’all big things are coming for my family & I!
1. I got a job! My mom got a phone call the other day from a friend of hers who works at the middle school I attended when I was a teenager. The women runs the school’s after school program & asked for me to come help her, as they are looking for more teens to help with the program. I put in my job application on Tuesday, October 29th, 2019 & I find out Wednesday, October 30th, 2019 when my phone interview & my in person interview is! It pays $9 an hour & I would be working Monday through Friday with weekends & holidays off.
2. I created my resume with the help of a magazine that I help with! As y’all know, I am a content & public relations team member for an online magazine called Her Campus. Well, we had a meeting on Tuesday, October 29th, 2019, where us girls could create resumes & cover letters that we would eventually need in the future. It was such a great opportunity to learn how to be an adult & prepare for my future.
3. My brother got into his dream college on Tuesday! My family & I are so excited for his future, as my brother is one of the intelligent, talented, athletic, dedicated, & hard working student I know. My brother is not staying in a dorm though (I don’t either right now for my college) so we will both be living at home, as our 2 colleges are a few minutes from our house. He got in on full scholarship & he’s so incredibly happy!
4. I will be going on a trip to my hometown in November! I haven’t been back since my huge fight with my dad’s family (we no longer speak to his family), so we will be staying in a hotel but we are there just to do things around my hometown but I’m so excited! I missed home a lot & it will be good to go back before I go back to school in January.
5. I go back to college in January! From June until December, I took a gap semester off college after 3 grueling & intense semesters back to back. My first semester of college Fall 2018 I took 4 classes (Failed 1), my second semester in Spring 2019 I took 4 classes (Failed 2), & my third semester during Summer 2019 I took a retake class of the math class I failed in the Fall of 2018 & passed it in the summer. This semester which is Spring 2020, I will be retaking my Spring 2019 retake classes which will be English 2 & Introduction to Humanities (Also called Art History). This semester registration doesn’t start until November, classes don’t start until January 13th, & the semester ends in May. I will be doing Her Campus, Working at my Middle School, & doing school all in one semester. I will be so dead tired, I probably won’t be doing social media a ton.
6. My cousin is having a baby! She announced in a few months ago but the baby is due in January! Her baby shower is next weekend with all of our family so I’m very excited! I can’t wait for this little baby boy to come & our family to grow one person bigger! Also sadly two of cousins, who are both married, their wives had miscarriages this month. We are incredibly heart broken because along with my cousin’s baby, the family was going to grow by 3 little angels. But sadly God had other plans for our family & took 2 of our little angels to heaven before we could meet them. It’s been a hard month for our family but hopefully with the little boy coming soon, we should have some light shine on us.
7. Sickness! Y’all it’s going around. I have been sick, my dad has been sick, my mom has been sick, & some of my friends have been sick. Ugh it’s called cold & flu season for a reason. Also why I haven’t been on Tumblr is due to being sick. Sickness kicked my butt & I ended up sleeping a lot! I’m feeling 100% again so I’m back to freaking feeling normal again & it’s such a good feeling. My dad is still a little bit sick, so healing is taking awhile!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Okay y’all! I will be catching up on posting in the next few days or so! I will be working on catch up posts from today (Wednesday) to however long it takes me to catch up! So be on the look out for new post! Life has just gotten so crazy for me that posting needed to stop for a while for me to enjoy all the positivity the world is giving me before I got back on social media!
Also new posts are up on my Instagram & my Disney Food Tumblr Blog! Go check those out & the links are right here!

𝒟𝑒𝓈𝒾𝑔𝓃:
The Tiara is a small minor tiara. It features large scroll elements arranged across a geometric band of diamonds (The Halo Tiara has a total of 1,000 diamonds) & maintains all the characteristics of the Art Deco movement of design that started in 1925. The gems are of Geometric shape, in what’s described as a baton shape, topped by round diamonds that punctuate the points between the scrolls along the top. The scrolls have an almost wave-like shape on one side giving the piece a sense of movement. They are each covered in round diamonds and edged with a line of specially cut tapered square and rectangular gems. The triple line of round diamonds at the bottom complete the piece. The largest diamond—a round brilliant—highlights the top center of design.

The Grand Duchess Vladimir Tiara
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
𝒪𝓌𝓃𝑒𝓇𝓈/𝒲𝑒𝒶𝓇𝑒𝓇𝓈:
♕ Her Imperial Highness Grand Duchess Maria Pavlovna of Russia (1874 - 1920): Created for the Grand Duchess by the Bolin, the Russian imperial court jeweler for her wedding to Grand Duke Vladimir Alexandrovich of Russia.
♕ Her Imperial and Royal Highness Princess Nicholas of Greece and Denmark, Grand Duchess Elena of Russia (1920 - 1921): The Princess inherited the Tiara from her mother Her Imperial Highness Grand Duchess Maria Pavlovna of Russia, after her death.
♕ Her Majesty Queen Mary (1921 - 1953): The Queen purchased the Tiara from Her Imperial and Royal Highness Princess Nicholas of Greece and Denmark, Grand Duchess Elena of Russia.
♕ Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II (1953 - 2014): The Queen inherited the Tiara from her grandmother Her Majesty Queen Mary, after her death.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
𝒞𝓇𝑒𝒶𝓉𝒾𝑜𝓃 𝒴𝑒𝒶𝓇:
Created for the Grand Duchess by the Bolin, the Russian imperial court jeweler in 1874 for her wedding to Grand Duke Vladimir Alexandrovich of Russia.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
𝒟𝑒𝓈𝒾𝑔𝓃:
The Tiara is an elaborate diamond and pearl tiara. The piece is delightfully flexible & the pearls can be removed, as well as part of the diamond-encrusted structure, allowing it to be worn in a more closed form. The tiara is generally described as "widowed" when worn without its pendant stones. Maria wore the tiara without its pendants as a smaller closed coronet. In 1920, the Vladimir Tiara was damaged during its journey from Russia to England, as some of the pearls and diamonds were missing from the piece. In 1921, Her Majesty Queen Mary purchased the tiara from Her Imperial and Royal Highness Princess Nicholas of Greece and Denmark, Grand Duchess Elena of Russia to have the tiara fixed. 3 years later in 1924, Queen Mary had the tiara re-worked again, so that the Vladimir Tiara adapted so it could be worn in a third setting, with a series of fifteen cabochon drops from the Cambridge emerald collection. From then on, the emerald version of the tiara was often worn with pieces from the Delhi Durbar Suite (Including the Delhi Durbur Parure Tiara). In 1988, The House of Garrard renovated the hundred-year-old tiara once more, building it a completely new frame. In 2002, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II wore the tiara "widowed" -- meaning the tiara had neither its pearl or emerald drops.

𝐹𝓊𝓃 𝐹𝒶𝒸𝓉𝓈:
♕ When Maria fled the palatial Vladimir Palace in Saint Petersburg for a villa in Kislovodsk, her jewels, including the tiara, remained in a hidden safe in her bedroom at the palace. That summer, Maria Pavlovna's son, Grand Duke Boris (pictured above), and a friend, Bertie Stopford, hatched a dangerous plan to retrieve her jewels. He and Boris disguised themselves as workmen, and with the help of a palace caretaker, they snuck into the Vladimir Palace and smuggled out the contents of Miechen's secret safe. The Vladimir Tiara and her other jewels were placed in a pair of Gladstone bags, and Stopford managed to sneak them out of Russia. He took the jewels to London, where they were placed in a safety deposit box.
♕ In 1921, Her Imperial and Royal Highness Princess Nicholas of Greece and Denmark, Grand Duchess Elena of Russia decided to sell some of her mother's jewels.
♕ What a Group of Women! A 2 Grand Duchesses & 2 Queens have worn this tiara! The power that tiara holds!
♕ This is one of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II’s favorite tiara’s due to the amount of times she has worn during incredibly important royal events.

The Tiara was made in 1923 from a necklace The Queen Mother received from her husband His Majesty George VI The King. Elizabeth decided she’d rather dismantle it and reuse the gems elsewhere. Only six months after she received it, Garrard broke up the necklace and used the diamonds and pearls to create this tiara. The Tiara is a delicate diamond tiara of fanned motifs crowned by floating diamond arches and studded with two pearls at the base and a central top pearl.
