FEBRUARY BIRTHSTONE: AMETHYST

Each month I'm going to start rounding up some favorite items that tie back to the month's birthstone.

Wouldn't it have been lovely if I had gotten my act together and started this in January?

Sure it would've. 

Oops.

Hindsight is always 20/20, ya know?

Instead, I'll start with MY birthstone: Amethyst. 

Here's the deal with me & amethyst: as a kid, I haaaaaaaaaaaated the color purple. I blame it on being a Packers fan in a Vikings state...

As I've gotten older, I've learned to love all of the gorgeous shades that this stone comes in- and am pulling my old amethyst jewelry, dusting it off, and getting it some use finally!

Here are 9 gorgeous items that are in the perfect shades of purple:

THE DARKS

NIXON WATCH // MICHAEL KORS TOTE // OVAL PAVE EARRINGS

THE MEDIUMS

PASSPORT HOLDER //  FERRAGAMO RILVA BAG // FERRAGAMO BOW BRACELET

THE LIGHTS

KATE SPADE SQUARE STUDS // REBECCA MINKOFF MINI MAC // FERRAGAMO WALLET

Any fellow February birthday girls out there?

Anyone else grow up not loving their purple birthstone?
