Lapis Lazuli - Libra's Stone
The stone of truth; Lapis Lazuli, is said to encourage wisdom, knowledge and memory. While it is not the traditional birthstone for September, Lapis Lazuli has been known as the sun sign (star sign) stone for Libra, and we love it as our very own bohemian stone for September!
Prehnite for August
The gorgeous green Peridot is usually birthstone you hear for those born in the month of August. Although sometimes used, Peridot is not commonly seen through Sally’s designs, so we are bringing you the next best thing to spoil those August born this month…Prehnite!
History of Bohemian Fashion
The term 'Bohemian' itself began hundreds of years ago as a word that described the local eastern European gypsies, who hailed from an area called ‘Bohemia’. They were travellers who led unusual and nomadic lifestyles. Over time, bohemians used their fashion as an act of rebellion. The artist became the art. Exotic prints and textiles were mixed with historically outdated fashion, colours co-existed in bold ways that fashion had never seen before, the more embellishments the better!
