Ever have that feeling when you're wearing black and white ( I frequently do ), that whilst it's timeless and classic, it's also occasionally, boring? Spice up that look with a bold necklace in a punchy colour. Put on that red lip, keep everything else neutral and you're out the door.

Nearly all Aquamarines on the market have been heat treated to enhance the colour.
