Lord of the Rings

Nobody loved jewelry more than Tolkien. From the Silmarils to the Barrows, the hilt of Orcrist to the clasp of Elven cloaks, to yes, the One, Tolkien’s legendarium is dripping with priceless gems and ancient metalwork. Below, rings of power and splendor to rule our Age.

Et Paix

by Blissful Style, posted in high fashion, jewelry, Virtual Style

When I was in seventh grade, I started writing a fantasy saga about the world in the time of prehistoric humans, a place in which elves, fairies, giants, merfolk, sea serpents, and sorcerers reigned supreme. One land of the sorcerers, an island off the coast of modern-day France, was called Et Paix (which, unbeknownst to me at the time, means “And Peace”). It was a land inhabited entirely by witches who wore extravagant evening attire every day. Each year, a convention of all the witch princesses of the world was held. Below are looks inspired by my childhood dream.
