the nazar or the evil eye stone is an amulet that is meant to protect against the evil eye. a friend of mine who visited turkey a couple of years ago brought me this evil eye pendant and i've been fascinated with it ever since. i wanted to wear it today, and since i love to get all matchy-matchy with my accessories, i went for blue earrings and a lapis lazuli ring. the ring was also a gift and is one of my favorite as it has such a vintage vibe to it. i remember reading adventure books as a kid and all the princesses wore lapis lazuli stones. also, i've been developing a thing for shirt dresses lately. i am not a big fan of button down shirts as they seem too corporate, so the ones i actually own have either gingham/ checkered prints, stripes or fun little skull head prints. but shirt dresses are another story. they have that feminine versus masculine touch i sometimes look for in certain items. cannot wait to wear this blue stripped shirt dress in the summer with a pair of sandals. but for now, since it's been raining cats and dogs for days, I paired it with snake skin leggings and oxfords.
shirt dress: h&m * leggings: stradivarius * shoes: red lips
Ooo, love that dress! Yes, I am very into shirt dresses lately, as well! They are just that perfect combination, feminine, but not too sweet! Love how you paired it with the leggings and oxfords. super cool.

A Nazar or evil eye stone (Turkish : Nazar Boncuğu) is an amulet from ancient mythologhy that protects against the evil eye.
ReplyDeleteIn Anatolia, the evil eye beads are widely used to keep the evil eye away.The researches on the history of glass making have revealed that Mediterranean and its environs is the home of the glass making.The sand and the wood of the pine trees that give high energy when they are burnt are used in the production of glass and they are widely found in this area.
