New Orleans. It’s a million miles away from me, down here in the land down under the land down under. But I have always wanted to visit Norleans. Ever since I started reading Anne Rice books. I was a little obsessed by The Vampire Chronicles (meh, to Twilight), but that was before I read about the Mayfair Witches in The Witching Hour.

I so badly wanted to visit New Orleans and see the mardi gras. I would be in glittery heaven with all those fabulously gaudy beads strewn all over the streets (and around naughty girls necks, I know what those necklaces mean…). But I digress. This post is another mix and match opportunity.
Voodoo is somewhat synonymous with New Orleans in my mind. Voodoo is fascinating as well as being somewhat scary and a recognised religion. I like it for the jewelry connotations. To me, Voodoo can be encapsulated in earrings. It gives me a chance to goth up some little skulls I purchased a while ago. I really should get some more because they’ve proven to be a popular item in my little social media circle. I can’t say that I’ve sold any of my Voodoo-esgue earrings but they are well liked.
Black Noir Chunky Charm Bracelet by Glamour Twinkles Jewelry, available from Etsy
Now, what would sit better with said Voodoo inspired earrings that a jet black chunky charm bracelet. Another favorite item in my jewelry stable, this black beauty is a noir masterpiece. An adjustable sturdy chain festooned with big, black bold glass beads.
I think these two pieces paint a nice dark picture, don’t you?
