Beach Bling

It’s time for the beach, and I can’t wait…except for the bathing suit part.  I figure why not wear pearls to the beach – give them a taste of home.

Souvenir from the Seaside

This style board features a Twilight Mystic Fire bracelet:

And my two favorites, the rose quartz & pearl diamond ring and the flowery pink & white opal ring:

This Thursday, I am flying to San Diego, hence the seaside-themed board.  I won’t have time for a jaunt at the beautiful beaches as I have to immediately head back via vehicle, but may have time to oggle the seals on the shore.  Possibly some Navy Seals as well.  However, it will be dark so it will be a lot less fun.
Until my return, a question: Pearls come from the sea.  They’re natural.  They’re beautiful.  How could anyone ever think they had gone out of style or were matronly?
Do you wear pearls?  If so, what type? (earrings, necklace, pendant, ect.)
Dyed or naturally colored?
Irregular or regular?
For me:
Yes. All types, especially a string of pearls. I prefer natural, but peacock teal or magenta pearls seem to always find a way into my jewelry box.  Depends – I like them all.  Irregulars are affordable and the perfectly round Akoyas are investments.  Investments in style.  I like those kind of investments the best.  My stock portfolio disagrees.

Bumble Bee

Yesterday felt like the first day of Spring.  Jasmine bloomed in my yard and bumble bees attacked both me and the dogs.Bumble Bee

Stuck in traffic on my way downtown, I opened all the windows in my car.  It was about to rain.  I breathed in the day before it was washed away clean and knew the chilly days were most likely over.

It’s Spring.  It’s time for color.  It’s time for bumble bees and flowers and melons and honey sweet smells.  It’s time for clean, crisp air and beach towels and bicycle rides.  It’s time for sunshine.  It’s Spring.

This Spring, we’re going to be seeing a lot of saturated hues like sunburst melon and vibrant greens with accessories to match.  In fact, gemstone jewelry is one of the easiest ways to get the look.  Keep an eye out for lemon yellow citrine, opaque rose quartz and turquoise, lime green peridot, cool aquamarine and pink or green tourmalines.  The more vibrant the color, the better.  The bolder the style, the better.

Let’s do more than barbeque this Spring, let’s wear her colors.
