crystals and charms

I started getting interested in crystals and their energies a few years back. I believe that everything in life has energy and anything with good energy we should definitely keep near and dear to us. I'm a Gemini and born on a Wednesday, so I did some research and found out that my lucky crystals are Rutile Quartz and Amazonite. Rutile Quartz is supposed to draw away negative energy and sooth dark moods, easing difficult situations in good time, while Amazonite promotes confidence and self worth. Another favourite of mine is Rose Quartz, the crystal of love which brings love, attraction and forgiveness.

Besides loving all the qualities that these crystals bring, I also love love love accessories and charm bracelets - so what better than to wear these lucky crystals along with my favourite charms for good luck? During my trips to Hong Kong and Singapore I stop by Thomas Sabo and Links of London which have the most darling charms that I can wear with my crystal bracelets. I especially like Thomas Sabo charms because they have little fasteners which make them so easy to attach and remove. These are my everyday crystals and some of the charms which I mix and match to them. The Rutile Quartz is the yellowish cream one, Amazonite is the deep green and Rose Quartz is the pale pink one.


Aren't they cute? I love them! The silver charm bracelet with the spiderweb heart charm was a recent purchase from Links of London in Hong Kong. I love their sweetie charm bracelet line and this mini one was perfect to wear with my crystals - I saw it at IFC mall and bought the bracelet first. I saw the spiderweb heart and loved it but wasn't sure if I wanted to buy both items. So I left the shop, walked around the mall for another hour, and found i couldn't get it out of my mind! I had to go back and get it! And I am so happy I did, I think it's so unique and I love the juxtaposition of the heart with the spiderweb. I think it goes perfectly with my crystals and I always wear them all together!
