Oh May birthday girls- you are some lucky ladies to have Emerald be your birthstone. Y'all must have been throwing a party back in 2013 when it was the Pantone color of the year.
Whenever I think of emeralds I think of pirates treasure of gold and gems...which according to Wikipedia is a pretty dumb thought since most of them in the world are in Colombia, which is less pirate-y and more drug lord-y.
If you love emerald things- it's nearly impossible in May to find something that is in that color family. I don't know who decided birthstones, but clearly they were drunk the day they put a fall/winter color as a birthstone for spring/summer. #justsayin.
All that aside, it still is possible to find some awesome emerald-like jewelry [like these] or phone cases with varying deep green hues [how great are these?]. So while they're few and far between, just be thankful you have such a glamorous birthstone!
Here's the May favorites:
This month's picks include:
That cocktail ring is insane but fabulous, right? [more emerald-y jewelery HERE]
3 stellar phone cases with assorted green hues [shop them all HERE]
A green clutch, good all year long [more green pouches HERE]

Tassel green shoes, because...why not? [shop green shoes HERE]
Happy Birthday to all you May ladies!
Hope you find a great emerald gift to yourself out there!
