How I Wear MY PEACE of jewelry - Van Halen Rocks!

Van Halen!
Ok, I am not really into Van Halen, but I love Rock n' Roll t-shirts.
 I love pairing ethnic statement necklaces with rock n' roll t-shirts.
Statement necklaces with  jeans and t-shirt is just beautiful;
at least for me they are beautiful, I feel "nice" when I combine them.
"dressed up" is the word, but "special" is not.
I rarely wear heels and I don't wear many dresses
but I LOVE wearing JEWELRY!
I love wearing necklaces and earrings.
And how to combine a unisex, tomboyish and adrogynous clothes
with frou frou jewelry is my challenge
Here is my view.


Ethnic necklace - rock n' roll t'shirt


Van Halen 
is an American hard rock band formed in Pasadena, California, in 1972.
It's 1978 debut album, Van Halen-
featuring guitarist Eddie Van Halen, vocalist David Lee Roth,
drummer Alex Van Halen, and bassist Michael Anthony-
is widely considered to be among the most "original"
and revolutionary" albums to change rock and roll.

My most memorable and favorite song was "jump"


Back to what I am wearing.
Besides the Van Halen t-shirt,
I'm wearing this beautiful necklace 
that I wish I could say I made
but I did not.


It was fairly inexpensive. You can buy online.
Just google "lapis lazuli necklace" and you will find all kind of sites selling
a variety of necklaces.

Necklace is 7 diamond shaped lapis lazuli stones encased in silver metal
hanging from a black cotton cord that closes with a button.

Lapis Lazuli is a semi-precious rock, largely formed from the mineral lazurite 
that has been desired for its intense blue color. 
Lapis lazuli is found in limestone in the Kokcha River valley of Badakshan 
province in northeastern Afghanistan, where
the Sar-e-Sang mine deposits have been worked for more than 6,000 years.


Until next time, don't forget to "jump" into the New Year
with a positive attitude and resolution.
Mine is to eat more veggies.
I will be posting soon what is the recommended intake for veggies for the week.
It's pretty interesting.

    WOW, your necklace is really nice. I'm girly girl--I embrace it so I would wear it with a rhoyal blue shirt to make the stone pop more and something gold. I would wear my hair pinned with a bun on top but I would need a long stone earring to set the look off.

      Hi Sistergirl! That is what I love about jewelry. It can be worn so many different ways. I must admit or it's pretty obvious, I am not girly girl and a little tomboy-ish. I am thinking about blending my jewelry with my outfit, BUT I would love to see how you would wear. It sounds great how you would wear it. Maybe I should send it to you and let you "rock" it with your outfit. :) I am curious.

How to Choose the Right Earrings for your Face Shape

Image
I love to make jewelry; earrings included. But I have to admit not every style is right for every Woman. Depending on your face shape some earrings types are better than others. The types of earrings you wear should depend on your FACE shape. The four basic shapes are highlighted below. SQUARE SHAPE What is a square-shaped face? - sides of your face will be straight - face will be nearly as wide as it is long - your jawline will be defined, with only a minimum curve                                                                        - strong jawline                                                                      Best EARRINGS for square-shaped face - earrings with rounded designs - elongated earrings, especially under the chin line - dangling earrings - hoop earrings These styles are considered excellent because they add a softness to the facial angles *avoid very wide, bulky, square earrings Famous square-shaped  face celebrities
