I'VE GOT MY EYES ON- EVIL EYE JEWELRY

A talisman to protect wearers against evil, the blue evil eye amulet has recently become a darling of the runway. Found in Turkey and many Mediterranean countries, I first came upon the charm of evil eye jewelry in Greece several years ago. The fashion was to wear several thin bracelets filled with small hanging evil eye charms that dangled from your tanned wrist.

Jewelry designer Kara Ross has transformed the evil eye charm concept into a bold and modern line of jewelry for Tory Burch. I'm in love with the larger than life eye adorning the chunky gold cuff and chic hanging pendant necklace.  Evil eye inspired jewelry-the perfect summer accessory!

I have to say, I think I like the smaller ones myself. the big ones definitely make a statement, but I don't think I could pull it off. The little girls my daughter's age have been wearing them for a few years.
Thanks for your sweet comments on my daughter. She is doing a little better everyday.
