With all the talk of statement pieces this season, I thought I'd shed a little light into my favorite jewel, turquoise. Maybe it's because of my olive skin tone (I'm Italian & Czech) or maybe because it's so versatile, but turquoise jewels have been my go to for years & years. The tone adds such a cool, beachy but also very New York feel to me. It can be easily and effortlessly added to nearly any outfit just for the right amount of punch.
Some people feel like turquoise is a summer jewel, but it's an anytime, anywhere jewel in my eyes. It even took the runway at NYFW.

I love how Oscar paired the coral dress with an over the top, definite statement earring. My eyes automatically are drawn to the major earrings in this picture before even getting to the dress.
A few from my personal collection:
From left to right: Ball Necklace: French Connection, Ring: TJ Maxx, Earrings: Ralph Lauren, Large Stones Necklace: Ralph Lauren, Turquoise Chip Necklace: Beach Vendor in the Dominican Republic, Large Jewel Necklace: (not actual turquoise but still fun) Express
I actually wore this feather & turquoise colored beaded statement necklace today to work, which gave me the inspiration to do a little post about my love for the hue or the stone turquoise.
