The alkemistry of Jewellery

 

I love beautiful, elegant discreet jewellery.  I am lucky to have a few sentimental pieces that I have cherished for years. Many of them presents from parents and loved ones and each piece holds precious memories.  I am also interested in why certain gem stones appeal to me whilst others simply do not. I don’t feel that this attraction is just about the colour.  A real gemstone will have a certain vibration that mysteriously works with certain personalities.

I was recently introduced to The Alkemistry the brainchild of Kirstie, who previously worked as a jewellery buyer for Harrods. She realised there was something missing, something intangible and inexplicable when the perfect match between the wearer and a gemstone just worked.  Read her story and philosophy here.  Then have some fun with a “reading” to find out which stones are recommended for you. I certainly agreed with my recommendations; beautiful pearls, aquamarine and pink opals.  I love them all.

 

 

 

These are real stones and metals and are therefore investment pieces, They make ideal gifts for wedding anniversaries, a daughter’s 21st birthday, graduation or any occasion you want to commemorate with a gift that will last a lifetime.

 

This is not a sponsored post however I first met Kirstie through one of my oldest and best girlfriends so there is a personal connection.

I write a fashion and beauty blog for women over 50 with the aim of inspiring mature women to continue to enjoy and have fun with their fashion choices. I have spent most of my working life in some way connected to fashion. I started my career in Fashion PR and then trained as an Image Consultant when my children were young. I subsequently worked in the corporate world running seminars, doing private coaching and speaking at conferences. I started my blog in 2009 as I wanted to share my years of experience working in the world of fashion. I truly believe we can continue to have confidence in the way we present ourselves. Our style may evolve with time and changing lifestyles, yet with a little knowledge and inspiration, we can all continue to have fun with fashion. As women of a certain age we are a growing demographic let us prove that we can also be a chic one.

  • Love the pink opal ring. I have a thing for soft pink with gold! I got diamond, moonstone and blue sapphire. Fun to do.
