In the Heat of Summer
elva
Give us a heatwave if it looks anything like this! Clementine-fresh orange in hue, with a fiery flash of prettiest pink in the right light, we can't get enough of these beautiful, faceted iridescent crystal beads. (They were among the first we snagged without question on last month's buying adventure simply for their notice-me-now color and finish alone!) Flirtatious on their own for sure, we thought pinning a pair of vintage goldtone metal flower brooches to the side would be just the right touch of feminine beauty to temper the stylish ferocity of the beads…but you may be the judge of that, as the brooches are detachable, allowing you to bring them along or to opt to wear the beads on their own. A gilt copper toggle clasps the strands at back, creating a length of 18" overall.
