under the sea

I wanted to name this bracelet the drop off but felt that didn't sound too gem seductive and I shouldn't obliquely refer to Finding Nemo, even if it is a wonderful movie that I've seen far too many times (I'm very well versed in the movies of Pixar). This bracelet looks like a treasure from the sea. A strand of apatite chips resemble the clear aqua of tropical island waters. Flourite beads cast a spectrum of purples. Lepidolite ovals add soothing lavender with irridescent labradorite rounding out the mix. Consider it spring break on your wrist, without the regret of having too much to drink. Sterling silver clasp, 8" in length. $41

break the night with colour

I gotta put the u in colour because this is the title of a Richard Ashcroft song and he's British. Now I was years late to appreciating this song, apparently it came out in 2006 and I only downloaded it this summer. But oooh, I want Richard Ashcroft to just sing oooh to me nonstop. It's heady stuff, who knew a man could put so much emotion into one syllable? Seriously when I first downloaded this song I'd just hit repeat nonstop while on the treadmill, I thought of looping his ooohs so I could fall asleep to that, I'm sure it would guarantee very yummy dreams. This multi-strand bracelet has pearls that are the deepest blue black, coupled with paler bluish grey seed pearls and a strand of iridescent cut glass that sparkles blue, lavender and pink. Quite a conversation piece, this is a bracelet that would be a lovely accompaniment to a little black dress. 14kt gold-filled clasp, 8-1/4" in length. $41
