The Colors of the Holidays

The holidays are upon us…the season of giving (and receiving) are in full swing.  This is the time of year we get to dress up a little, get out and socialize, and be with the friends and family that we most love to be with.  Let’s explore the pieces that will let you dazzle those around you! (Click on any picture for more details).

Ever the classic gemstone that will turn anything you wear into a dressy outfit, the pearl is something everyone should have at lease one good piece of.  Pearls come in many shapes, sizes, and colors.  String them together or as singles, the subtle glimmer of pearls add class to any occasion.

Freshwater Pearls

Crystals sparkle and can turn any activity into a special occasion.  Like pearls, they come in many sizes and colors.  One of my favorite ways to add a little sparkle to my everyday is with a dainty pair of earrings.

Clear Crystal Teardrop

Paua shells are from Hawaii and their bright luminescence  are sure to add a subtle sparkle and a pop of color…a little more sparkle than pearls, a little less than diamonds or crystals.

Reds and greens are also prevalent colors during the holidays, as well as blue and white, depending on your tradition.  Take a gander at these pieces:  Malachite, sapphire, and red cloisonne, to name a few.
