Today’s bracelet stack is the Pandora five Station bracelet and my Essence bracelet. I’ve been wearing the two a lot lately because the five station I purchased recently as it’s going to be retired soon, and the Essence bracelet (which I picked up as a birthday gift to myself!) because I’ve started to finally add to it.
At first I thought I’d add different clips to the five station bracelet, but I love how the Rock stars look on it, so I’m probably going to leave it like that permanently. Also I’m totally in love with my new Patience bead from Essence. I believe it’s agate. I love the translucency of the particular bead I picked out, (more on this in a different post).
I think I’m a push over for soon-to-be-retired items. I feel I must get them or else I’ll feel like I’m missing out! Anyone else share this particular problem? This is why all of the Essence charms on my bracelet are retired with the exception of the Patience bead. I picked up Respect, Compassion, and the original Balance charm in moonstone.
I was lucky enough to find a nice bluish moonstone. It’s still mostly grey, however when the light hits it in a special way, it gives off a beautiful blue fleck. This is why I love natural gemstones and why I was disappointed when they replaced it with a pave yin yang version.
Thank you for letting me share my bracelets with you! What do you think? Have you bough the Essence bracelet from Pandora yet?
I am just as obsessed with retired items!! Adrenaline starts rushing as soon as the lists are revealed! 🙂 . I have actually just managed to get two of the retired moonstone balance charms myself! They’ll be with me next week. I’m planning to wear them with my gold Essence 🙂 . Funny enoug I just got the 5-clip in the sales as well – and plan to only wear rockstar clips on it 😀
That’s because great minds think alike 😉 I’m like that too! I get way to excited when the retirement list comes out. I need to get one more rockstar clip to complete the bracelet though. I hope you love your balance beads!
