1920s BIRTHSTONE LOOKBOOK - PART 2
Welcome back to the glitz and glamour of the 1920s birthstone lookbook! After hair, jewellery is my favourite CC to hunt for so these ensembles were so much fun for me to put together. Want more good time gals and fabulous flappers? You can check out part one here. CC links under the cut.
Ruby is one of the most expensive gemstones and with its rich red colour it isn't hard to see why. Rubies have long been connected with physicality and strength, thought to be intimately connected with the human body.

Peridot is one of my favourite stones thanks to its gorgeous yellow-green hue. Because of this lively appearance they were often thought to protect their wearer at night.

Sapphire is considered a protective gemstone. They may shield the wearer from physical harm, as well as bad intentions and envy. It was also thought that sapphires had medicinal properties.

Opal is an incredibly unique gemstone with its multi-coloured appearance. Opals are associated with light and magic, with some crediting them with healing properties.

Topaz comes from the Sanskrit word for fire, which is reflected in its vibrant and rich orange-yellow colour. It is believed that topaz worn above the heart assures long life, beauty and intelligence.

Blue Topaz actually comes out of the ground colourless or pale blue. A two-step heat and radiation laboratory treatment is then used to turn these stones vivid blue.

It won’t be awkward, it will be the proving the point of the song once more with the exact same criticism the song was meant to evoke the first time around. It only sucks that it will be more poignant because yes, it’s a second time — but it won’t be awkward. Only another instance of art commenting on the world around us. It’s the point of the song and that moment in the show.
TGWDLM rerun is probably happening and all I can think about is how awkward “America is Great again” will be 💀💀
Must be so so hard to be a professional writer and write something with just BANGER narrative architecture like just incredible symbolism and foils and parallels and thematic consistency and dramatic irony and then just silently release this into the world and hope the audience Gets It.
