Gems and stones

Posted on February 11, 2016 by myeye1

I love all the colours, shapes and sizes of the gems and stones that form this beautiful neckline of my outfit. The black fabric they’re placed on really make the colours pop.

Sea green and pearls

Posted on May 31, 2015 by myeye1

I recently bought a new outfit for a family wedding and I love the sea green colour and the details of the sparkly beads set off against the simple white, creamy pearls.

I really enjoyed wearing the outfit on the day and feeling the fabric swish as I walked

I hope to be able to wear this again at a family party or dinner soon

Iron horse

I came across this iron horse whilst wandering around London. I think the deep blue coloured stones really stand out against the grey tones of the metal and I think the embellishment of the bridel and coat are amazing. The rider looks quite proud too

Bling rings

I think these rings are stunning, with either the pink or green gems to contrast with the white. Although they’re slightly large they are great as statement pieces. They can be found here

Gem collection

This precious gem collection isn’t mine (unfortunatley) but is housed at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. I love the way the stones have been arranged in colour order and seem to be located in a dark secret place, which they kind of are as you’re not allowed to take pictures but I was being a bit sneaky (and before you ask, yes I got told off and had to put my camera away afterwards)

Pink gem prayer beads (tasbeeh)

I really like the glassy look and definition if the beads in this photo. You can also see my picture of another set of prayer beads here which I like just as much
