Heavens to Murgatroyd!

That's what gay cartoon icon Snagglepuss might say, if he saw you sporting this chunk of ruff rock crystal points around town. I don't know which galaxy Murgatroyd is located in, but just think of all the gems that might be found there! Exit, stage left!

Nice Ice Baby!

Sweet as sugar, with none of the calories! My new Sugar Cube Necklace is a unique holiday gift, at a great price. Created with hammered rock crystal and sterling silver, the surface texture of the crystal cube resembles a tasty hunk of rock candy. Yum. While you're at it, soothe that sugar rush, with a Crystal Calm Bracelet, or earrings, and the natural healing energy of pure rock crystal.

Freshly Picked: Treasure Island

This week’s item at Supermarket is a treasure trove of sparkling gems, perfect for a pirate’s lass in need of something fresh for Summer. A heavyweight sterling silver nautical link bracelet, laden with six different rock crystal charms including a salty looking piece of druzy, is an absolute steal at only $77.00. The Treasure Charm Bracelet is on sale for one week only, starting today. Check back next Monday for a new Freshly Picked item!

I say show off your big rocks, especially if they are chunky and perhaps a bit unrefined. An oversized organic looking charm bracelet is just the right statement, particularly with this summer’s favorite silhouette, the maxi dress. I am currently loving this one by Christopher Deane, in a sheer cotton silk nautical print with twisted rope straps that criss-cross in the back. It happens to be on sale through July 7th, at Sophia Eugene, so run don’t walk before they get sold out!

NOTCOUTURE #4424

Spotted on NOTCOUTURE, my daily inspiration and fashion filter for all things luxurious and indulgent!

Freshly Picked

Say hello to this week’s Freshly Picked item, new at Supermarket. Starting today, Rock Candy Ribbon Necklaces are 30% off for one week only.

Sweet as sugar and 100% organic, rough crystal in its natural state bears a striking resemblance to that childhood favorite, rock candy! I used to buy mine on a wooden stick at the Amagansett Farmer’s Market, back in the 70’s. The rough, unpolished stones look really cool, like wearing ice on a hot summer day!

Pick from four super-bright colors, and get ‘em while they’re in season. Check back each Monday for more freshly picked items!

Superwoman

We all know that behind every Superman is a Superwoman. Clark, we appreciate your penchant for red and blue, but what about some rocks for her? What would make a strong statement? You definitely need to avoid green. Maybe something organic and futuristic looking in a crystal spike formation?
