Mermaid Treasure: Little Sister Designs (LSD) Jewellery

I featured one of my new favorite rings from LSD Jewellery a little while back and I must say, that ring wasn't the only thing I picked up that day. Inside this sleek black box with a snapping lid and silver embossing lies a trio of hand crafted silver pins that my make Harry Potter loving heart go pitter pat as if I was in the Shrieking Shack.

"Reveal your secrets."

A Deathly Hallows pin made of bones that delights me.

A skeleton of a rat's paw pinching a faceted moonstone aptly named The Demented Pin.

A Seer Pin, which is a casting of a finch's claw grasping a faceted labradorite. With the blue hue of the stone and the bird claw I tend to think of this one as an homage to Ravenclaw.

The Demented and Deathly Hallows pins are currently available for $70 to $75 each. There is a coupon code right now for 25% off until October 17th using: HALLOWEEN18

Sweater

I have enjoyed wearing these lapel pins on a black cardigan sweater of mine. As you know from my fall fashion post, cardigans are my preferred sweater but I do have a couple geeky pull on sweaters that I love and this one I picked up on Etsy last year from Black Bird Supply:

I don't look nearly as cute in it but I like how soft it is. 

Please share your favorite place to get sweaters. Do you have any Harry Potter lapel pins? Where did you get them?

LSD (Little Sister Designs) Jewellery: Posiedon's Garden Ring

I have become quite enamored with the darkly Victorian creations of LSD (Little Sister Designs) Jewellery. Charlotte Burkhart is the artist behind the brand and she is based out of New Zealand. Charlotte draws her inspiration from nature, specifically "animals and their fragile mortality." She also enjoys books (like Harry Potter and Game of Thrones- you can see this in some of her work) and horror films. 

She does sell through Etsy as well. 

Recently she held what I believed was an anniversary sale. My memory fails me what the sale was specifically for but it was a sale and that was all I needed to know. I took full advantage of it. I picked up a necklace, a few lapel pins and this ring. 

The ring is named Poseidon's Garden and features a setting of antiqued flowers and leaves and vines. She cast this particular design from a vintage costume ring she found. You can choose either a blue, aqua or green faceted labradorite for the stone and it is made to order in your size. I must say that Charlotte uses incredibly flashy stones that glow with beauty. It is a nice medium sized ring that feels glamorous but could be worn casually too. 

Do you have a favorite gemstone? I always vascillate between labradorite and moonstone. I am a sucker for the flash and glow.
