CRYSTALS, GEMS AND JEWELRY

[veronika23]

I know a few of us share a passion for crystals and jewelry as well as makeup so thought I would start a thread on this. Share your stash, finds, whatever!

The seahorses are cute, @caitbird !  I like the second pair, the ones that go from the first hole to the second hole.

[caitbird]

@Titian06  thank you! I like those ones too, I might end up keeping them since I think they are interesting and versatile and I don't really have any double piercing earrings yet.

Another winner from Macy's

@greeneyedgirl107  ooh, pretty 😍! I'm curious, when you shop at Macy's do you usually buy online or in store, or a mixture of both? I have only looked online since there isn't a Macy's store that's very convenient to where I live.

[greeneyedgirl107]

@caitbird I do both.  I started recently in store, and go from there.  Online seems to have better sales.  My mall has gotten really dismal, so I've resorted to Macy's.   It's better than I thought,  but the Mact's north of the city is better.   I've probably exhausted most of the items I'm interested in, tho.  Online was more limited than I thought.

Definitely a winner, @greeneyedgirl107 ! 😍

@Titian06 if I could, I'd walk around like a female Mr. T!

I reorganized my pin collection today and took the opportunity to take a picture of all of them. It reminded me that I have so many fun ones but I don't wear them often enough!

They are from all different sources, many from thrift stores. If you want to know about a specific one, feel free to ask!

@caitbird anthropologie has some gorgeous pins this year!  How do u wear yours?

[caitbird]

@greeneyedgirl107  the little bee pin is a recent purchase from Anthropologie actually! I like to wear a pin as an accent on a hat or scarf this time of year, or sometimes a cluster of a few smaller ones by the neckline of my top or jacket. But I definitely don't remember to wear them as often as I'd like.

[greeneyedgirl107]

@caitbird would love to see how you style the pins!

[Titian06]

Lovely collection, @caitbird !  Of course the first one I noticed was the cat in the upper left corner. 😄🐈‍⬛

[caitbird]

@Titian06  thank you! That one is handmade, I got it from a local artist.

I've picked up several earrings from Bohindie Stream and this year I picked up their Advent Calendar since they have a really good BF sale. I don't have it yet but the sneak peek is making me so excited!

[caitbird]

@makeitup305  a jewelry advent calendar, how fun! I've never heard of Bohindie Stream before, but I like this style. I hope you enjoy everything when it arrives!

[makeitup305]

@caitbird I usually go for statement earrings but this brand makes some cute daintier pieces and it’s pretty affordable. I’m super excited about the advent 😃

[Titian06]

Very pretty, @makeitup305 ! 😍

[makeitup305]

thanks @Titian06 ! They do some cute stuff.

[caitbird]

@greeneyedgirl107  very nice! I have a few pieces that have been in my Macy's cart for a while - maybe soon I will finally pull the trigger.

[greeneyedgirl107]

@caitbird they're having some nice sales!
