Colorful necklaces

Spring is awesome! Days longer than nights and thus more energy and time to invest in new projects, desire to spend more time out in the open, beauty in nature – this sounds pretty much like spring to me. But this is not all. The enthusiasm also comes from the revival of colors, don’t you think? Just look around and observe the positive influence of the palette on your state of mind.

These wonderful necklaces would make a perfect match for that scenery:

The roaring 20s or crazy 60s? Take your pick!

Do you ask yourself sometimes: how would have been like to be born and live in a different period of time? To feel the pulse of the roaring '20s in New York or the life in Paris in the Thirties? What about to live in London in the crazy '60s?

Your style would have been different, that's for sure. But can you imagine yourself all dressed up and with a haircut according to the fashion trends of each decade? Oh, it is fun to look back and imagine a different world, with a different version of yourself. 

I was also curious about the jewelry women wore back then. So two days ago I've decided to search on 1stdibs.com jewels made in each decade of the 20th century. It was an interesting game to play. :) Check out my virtual collection of jewels from 1900 till the '90s, do you like it?
