Peridot Lovin’: Birthstones of the Month

Tuesday, August 21st, 2007

The other day, Zoe talked about Blue Topaz lovin’. And she* mentioned birthstones, right? So today, Zoe is going to talk about this month’s birthstone! Peridot!

Peridot, my girls, is one of the most beautiful green stones around. It is not as brooding as emerald. Rather, it is of this delicious shade that I actually run out of words to describe it. Is it of an olive-ish shade, only lighter? Ochre-tinged? Yellow-green-ish? I really don’t know how to describe it, actually. All I know is that I never knew that green could be so beautiful.

I’m not a fan of the color green, but green the shade of peridot is absolutely captivating.

And you know what’s more special? Since it’s this month’s birthstone, my favorite jewelry store is actually giving discounts on its peridot jewelry! With prices going as low as 47% off the original price quote, you cannot afford to miss going to the one place on earth I go to for jewelry!

These are the picks I recommend, from the top:

-Peridot Emerald Cut Gemstone Ring in White Gold. Best worn with a light green (preferably of the same shade as peridot) sundress.

-Peridot Gemstone Earrings With Diamonds in 14K White Gold. Would go well with a melon-colored top and jeans. Don’t forget the straw hat and the Fendi shades!

-Peridot Gemstone and Diamond Pendant in White Gold With Chain. This would really be great with a satin dress in emerald green. And a pair of delicate sandals would be great too.

-14K White Gold Peridot Pendant Necklace With Chain. This is the piece that is sold at 47% off its original price. Might want to snatch that up and wear it with a light mint or olive green tee and jeans.

So summery, right? But if you don’t like my picks and you still want other choices from this month’s Peridot Birthstone collection, then head on over here, and, like me, go gaga over all the peridot jewelry you can find!

*People with royal blood tend to address themselves in the third person, so don’t mind if I would!

April Birthstone!

Sunday, April 1st, 2007

Hi Girls!

I was perusing the net and realized something. I need to call my mom and have her legally change my birthday to some time in April. Why you may ask? Well my birthday is in February which means my birthstone is Amethyst. Pretty, but big deal.

Do you know what April birthday babies get? Do you? Diamonds!

So these lucky ladies, without having to charm a man into marriage, naturally get the stone that Marilyn sang about. Talk about being born under a lucky star.

Well, I am not going to stand for it and neither should you. I can tolerate having my name and religion chosen for me at birth. I can even stand spending the holidays with relatives that only a mother could love. But I will not have my jewelry collection suffer because mom and dad got frisky a few months too early.

Ladies I implore you. Let us band together and make April the month where every woman is united with her best friend - let us rename it Diamond Bling Month. And let us make it our mission to see to it that every woman receives one of these precious gifts with or without a proposal.

As a gesture to woman kind everywhere I have gently persuaded ( i.e. nagged) my sweetie into giving us all a special diamond discount through his company. This month only, we can all save big on diamonds that sparkle so brightly that we may bring sight to the blind. And set to right the wrong that has been done to all women not born in April.

Smiles!
