> STRIKING EVENING JEWELRY

Shoulder duster scalemail earring base

Ah, what a great day! Ordered a bacon burger from the local burger place, and guess what? Got fries for free! :D Not intentional, mind. But, since the bag was already stapled shut, I thought I'd save them the hussle to open it up again. Using a second paper bag wouldn't have been good for the environment anyway.

I was feeling creative yesterday evening. Remember the dress fiasco regarding the wedding and the cocktail party? I changed tack and now have a different dress for each event. 

The dress for the cocktail party is dark grey in colour, with dark red roses across the bust and the lower part of the skirt. The shoulder part is decorated with a few sparkling green rhinestones. The earrings I saw on a favourite showmaster of mine yesterday evening (huuuuuge dangling sparkling pieces) inspired me to the jewelry I plan to wear with this dress. And naturally, I too started with the earrings. :) The base is made of red and green aluminum scales, and they'll be embellished with some gemmies - probably faceted labradorites, deep red faceted garnets or highly polished hematites. Something flashy, in any case. :) Not sure if the base design is going to stay that way, but yes, they will be long, from ear lobe to collarbone. :D I love statement earrings!

That's it for now, keep an eye out for project updates. :)
