SPOTLIGHT ON ... FASHION
July 2006

Going Fruity this Summer!
by Jessica Garrison

This just in: it's now trendy to go fruity - in fashion that is! This summer's hottest trend is to bring those bright fruit-inspired colors into your wardrobe - think kiwi, lemon and watermelon.

Tangerine is a refreshing change from orange, and looks fabulous on nearly all skin tones. For a matching necklace, try using some Sunstone in a design for a delicious pairing.

Feeling a little tart? How about pairing that Lemon Yellow tank top that you have been dying to wear since Spring with a floral sarong? Pair it with some Lemon Citrine earrings and you'll sweeten up your day in no time.

Liven up your summer morning brunch date with a pair of Kiwi or Lime colored Capri pants, but don't forget your Prehnite bracelet, or the day will certainly sour.

Who doesn't love a cool slice of watermelon on a hot summer day? It works well when worn on a sassy pair of platform sandals too. A dazzling anklet made with our Teeny Tiny Ceramic Watermelon beads will certainly enhance those cute shoes!

Although it might get a bit hot this summer, these cool, fruitful colors will be sure to keep us looking our coolest.
