Not that that made the challenge that much easier. I needed to really match the occasion of a day of basically just packing for my imminent house move, my clothes suitable to that and the stones I know.
I decided to go with Citrine. Pretty and yellow! A really sunny stone.
According to crystal-cure.com:
Citrine is a yellow-to-golden member of the quartz mineral group. A deep golden variety from Madiera Spain can resemble the costly imperial topaz gem stone, which is one reason that citrine is a popular birthstone alternative to those born in November.
Citrine has been called the "stone of the mind". Ancient cultures believed that placing a citrine on the forehead of an elder would increase his psychic power.
Citrine is known as the lucky "Merchants Stone". If you are in any type of sales, just put a citrine in the cash drawer and watch what happens. Also used by healers to:
- increase self esteem
- protect from the negative energy from someone else's abuse
- open the mind to new thoughts
- promote clarity of thought
Interesting stuff. I think so anyway.
So now over to my outfit of the day.
Basically anything below the waist can be ignored as it's only jeans. And this picture makes my bum and thighs look huge.
And the usual closeup. I am wearing a light yellow shimmery eyeshadow and mascara. It's not really visible. Unfortunately I don't actually own any citrine jewellery so no cool accessories apart from my headscarf.
I really like this theme and I would have done more with it under different circumstances. Now I need to think about the theme for this week and then we will probably take a break as I am going to Barcelonaaaaa! (And South of France and Italy)
