I have a thing for garnets. They’re like rubies, you know – slightly barbaric – but without all the bad luck. Wear them in a bronze tiara with a deconstructed wizard’s robe in burlap or leather, or  in a cluster ring with a chartreuse silk gown. These beauties here are from the Haramosh mountains in Pakistan and look like little drops of blood in the snow. Love it. (via Helen of Destroy)
