Turquoise Jewelry


                                                                            Turquoise Jewelry


Turquoise Jewelry is a must this summer and every summer to come.
I just love this colour it reminds me of swimming in the warm ocean or looking at the amazing blue sky while away on vacation. When I look at this colour it just makes me feel good :)


Turquoise occurs in the Mojave Desert of California, the Cerrillos Hills near Sante Fe in New Mexico and the states of Arizona, Nevada, Utah and Colorado. Native Americans mined many of these deposits centuries ago. Sky blue Turquoise occurs in Iran and a green variety occurs in Tibet. 





Turquoise is one of December’s gemstones…Lucky me since I was born in December wearing this colored stone has meaning behind it for me and more meaning when it’s a gift from someone else.




If you are going to wear both a necklace and earrings make sure they match...and don't clash. 
Just because they may be the same colour, one piece of jewelry may clash and over power the other piece. 
Cameron Diaz 
has the right idea of matching the two pieces perfectly.







I was just in Mexico the other month and picked up some amazing pieces of Turquoise jewelry.
So next time you head To Mexico don’t forget to pick yourself up some as well!


Just an example of a couple of pieces you could pick up in Mexico.



Turquoise Jewelry matches up nicely with most colours of clothing. Pair with a Yellow or Pink dress or even pair it up with Coral colours. Have fun with your pieces just remember to match not clash.

TOMS


                                                        WE LOVE TOMS
           
                                          

The story behind TOMS- After competing on the second season of the amazing race with his sister In 2006, American traveler Blake Mycoskie befriended children in Argentina and found they had no shoes to protect their feet. Wanting to help, he created the company TOMS Shoes that would match every pair of shoes purchased with a pair of new shoes given to a child in need. One for One. Blake returned to Argentina with a group of family, friends and staff later that year with 10,000 pairs of shoes made possible by TOMS customers. The TOMS movement is still going strong today, and has no sign of slowing down.
And I can see why, TOMS are my go to shoes. Comfort and style in one, these insoles are like walking on mini memory foam mattresses for your feet. They are perfect for traveling, walking long distances and making a casual outfit look just a little more put together. That is depending on your outfit and chosen shoe pattern of course. And there are many styles to choose from.
I'm obsessed with stripes this summer so I'm in love with my nautical inspired TOMS.

I'm really pleased to see that TOMS have moved their casual day to day shoe into a fashionable comfy wedge, a perfect look to pair with cuffed jeans, shorts, and even summer dresses. And with many styles to choose from it's nice to take the cork sole wedge with the tweed material into your fall wardrobe with you.  



  


And of course we can't forget the men...

My Guy Lives In These Toms 



I was flipping through a magazine the other day and couldn't get over all the celeb kids that are sporting TOMS...for good reason of course. I would think these shoes would be the perfect walking shoe for a toddler from their first few steps onward. The proof is in the shoe these are fashionable shoes for any age.


In Love with this little guy!
