lapis lust.

After discovering a dream pair of lapis earrings last week from Kate Spade, I fell a little deeper in love with this gorgeous gemstone. Since I adore the color cobalt blue, it's really no surprise why I adore this stone. If I had unlimited funds, you might find me wearing a few of the pieces below...

Though I've been a perennial lover of coral and turquoise, I have a feeling this blue lapis stone will be on my list for many years to come.

So, this begs the question: what gemstones have been calling your name this season?

    love all these and the site where you found some of them! You should check out this etsy shop: http://www.etsy.com/people/beadycats?ref=ls_profile

    I have similar taste in costume jewelry and I found that shop a while ago. I absolutely LOVE everything in it. The seller has some rings that are very similar to #12 but much more affordable. I haven't pulled the trigger on buying anything from the shop yet, but I hope to later this summer when I have some play money! :)

    Ooh, I've never thought of lapis but #10 made my heart stop beating! I'm usually one for either sterling silver or diamonds--simple and classic. The craziest I get is a pair of gunmetal earrings haha.
