This week, we continue to celebrate the enchanting harmony of the shell and the pearl as our stones of the week! Symbolizing purity, elegance, and the boundless depths of the ocean, these treasures from the sea captivate the imagination and inspire wonder. Shell, with its intricate patterns and resilient structure, embodies resilience and protection, while Pearl, born from within, radiates luminous beauty and inner wisdom. Together, they remind us of the interconnectedness of all things and the inherent magic of nature. As we embrace the shell and the pearl this week, let us dive deep into their timeless allure and let their tranquil energy wash over us, guiding us towards a sense of peace and serenity!

Golden hour!!! ✨

In addition to Pearl, Shell is one of the stones of the week! Cowry Shells represent the goddess protection, highly powerful and connected to the strength of the ocean. They bring good luck and protect the shell’s wearer. They also boost femininity and fertility. Furthermore, Pearl enhances personal integrity and helps to provide a focus to one’s attention. Pearl symbolizes purity and is known as a “stone of sincerity”. It brings truth to situations and loyalty to a “cause.” Please enjoy the 20% off fine jewelry sale online and in-store while it lasts!

Please welcome our new stone of the week: Pearl and Shell!

This week, the spotlight shines on the radiant pearl, an exquisite gem with a timeless allure. Pearls, born from the depths of the ocean, hold a captivating beauty and a wealth of symbolism. They embody purity, grace, and feminine energy, resonating with the gentle rhythm of the moon and the calming flow of water. As the stone of the week, pearls invite us to embrace emotional balance and tranquility, guiding us towards inner harmony and spiritual growth. With their protective aura and healing vibrations, pearls offer a sanctuary of serenity amidst life's currents. Let us adorn ourselves with the luminous elegance of pearls and bask in their timeless wisdom and divine essence throughout the week!

Tiger's Eye is the stone of discernment!

What is discernment? Discernment is the ability and intuition to make difficult decisions. Discernment is also defined as having the ability to make smart judgements. While judgement is often associated to be based off of first reactions and internal biases, judgement can also be based upon our interests and experiences. When we are faced with challenges and are being stretched between different decisions, we must rely on our internal navigation system to judge our best routes forward. While external forces may question our intuition, we must remind ourselves that the only true authority which is allowed to make decisions on our behalf is, in fact, ourselves.

If you desire practice trusting your intuition during times of trouble and stress, then Tiger's Eye is the perfect reminder for you!

All Tiger's Eye fine jewelry is 20% off both in-store and online!!

Harmony and comfortability! ~

Fashion and comfort do not need to compete -- rather, they should influence and benefit one another.

With Summer's shinning sun comes Summer's blistering heat. All we want to do is strip down to swimsuits and laze around in streams and lakes. Summer is the time of sitting among your thoughts in a field of in-bloom flowers; the time for falling asleep in a hammock strung between trees who sway under the stars; the time to fall in love with the curves of your hips and the planes of your outstreatched arms. Summer is the time to embrace your body like warm waters treasure and uplift your pressence. What better way to celebrate your body than to wear skirts and dresses which flow like the wind tangles through your hair?

Our cotton pieces, sewn and made with love in India, are block printed with natural vegetable dyes. They are light and fast drying, meaning that any frolicking in soft waves will be that much sweeter. Our elastic banded skirts are versatile in size and thier waistbands breathe from 24 inches to 46 inches, making them a wonderful piece which grows with you. Our cotton dresses dance along your figure and host a variety of different siluettes, ranging from an elegant empire waistline to a freeflowing shift dress!

Stop in store to become aquainted with a more free way of dressing!!

Thank you the Holy Wisdom Monastery in Middleton for allowing us to walk amongst your trails' beauty!

With a new week comes a new stone -- Tiger's Eye!

Tiger's Eye is a stone of balance.

In all things, equilibrium is desired. To be safe and secure, we must be able to find stable footing among the many directions that life pulls us. Whether it be a work-life, friends-family, self-other, or any other relationship, we must be able to build the knowledge and boundaries which will help us and those around us to flourish. Tiger's Eye is a physical and mental reminder to assess our spot in life's vast web of relationships and dynamics.

Tiger's Eye also provides us with the praticality and fairness to treat any imbalance with grace. Instead of treating any undesired or irregular situation as a cursed blemish, Tiger's Eye teaches us that any and every situation can be used to nurture us and align us with our soul's true purpose.

If you desire clarity, stop in to peruse our collection of Tiger's Eye jewelry! All Tiger's Eye fine jewelry is 20% off -- both online and in-store!!
