The video makes me think of Donnie Darko. Love Bat for Lashes.
Oh my! Wow! I love that first ring. I need some of that!
They are all so lovely. The bent key ring I really like.
How lovely! Amethyst is my birthstone, and purple is one of my favorite colors to wear: Prince approves, no? That cocktail ring is so lush.
Amethyst is always pretty! Have you done a blue topaz post?
I LOVE that video. I'd forgotten it, thanks for the reminder!
Ambika: Ditto. And either knowingly or unknowingly, you corrected me, which I thank ye for. I always add an "s" to Bat.
Flora: Me too!
TCH: And it's pretty affordable, which charmed the hell out of me.
Sharon: Man! Now I wish I had called this post "Prince Approves!"
Wendy: Not yet. The amethyst just makes me think of spring, and after all this warm weather... I shall do blue topaz though! Those are relatively easy posts and I'm scared of getting blog-burnt-out.
Sarah B.: My pleasure! I love it too... she's so seductive.
That Met Museum necklace is great! I must restrain myself from watching the video, I've got to listen to all the music I downloaded today first!
wonderful.
Love the bent key ring...
i love the color combenation between the gold and the purple!
