There is no rule book for wearing jewelry and everyone has their own style and preferences. All fine jewelry at Helen Ficalora looks good with any outfit of your choice.

However, at the end of the day, the type of jewelry you wear completely depends on your preference.

Is It Good Luck to Wear Your Birthstone?
For many years, people have believed that wearing your birthstone brings not only good luck but also good health and protection. In fact, astrologers long ago attributed supernatural powers to certain gemstones. For instance, Garnet is the birthstone for the month of January. This particular birthstone is thought to keep the wearer safe during travel. The word garnet translates to the word “seeds” because the gem resembles the color and shape of a pomegranate seed.
Just like the birthstone Garnet, Amethyst is the birthstone for the month of February. This stone is said to strengthen relationships and give its wearer courage. At a certain period in history, only royalty could wear the gem.
To conclude, it is strongly believed that wearing your birthstone brings out good luck and people strongly benefit from wearing birthstone jewelry.
