Wearing Tagua Nuts

Also known as Vegetable Ivory, Tagua Nuts come from one of the six known species of palms scientifically known as Phytelephas (plant elephant). These ivory palms are typical of the regions of Ecuador, Panama, Peru, Brazil, Colombia, and Bolivia, and they are becoming a sensation. So, if you want to know how to start wearing your Tagua nuts, stick with me.

I don't know about you, but I am against all sorts of animal cruelty (I may be allergic and not be crazy about animals - I would never kiss a dog in the mouth), but the mistreatment of animals is unacceptable. And that is the beauty of vegetable ivory; no elephant killing is involved!! After ​drying out, Tagua nuts and elephant ivory can be carved, minus the savage hunting! Vegetable Ivory is enchanting the world with its versatility, durability and most of all sustainability. .

I first learned about Vegetable Ivory last year, by chance, when I met Katherine Otto and her beautiful jewelry. Katherine is not only a great designer but also a socially conscious person. Her online store, EmikaGifts - named after her son and daughter - offers vibrant, Eco-friendly jewelry deeply connected with a charitable cause and social development. EmikaGifts brings beauty while helping an Elderly care home in Ecuador, making our shopping experience a greater pleasure as a percentage of the profit goes to the elderly care home. She also uses local artisans to carve her designs, improving their income. And if you think it does not concern you, think again because a better world affects all of us! The number of benefits is countless. But enough of talking! Let's dazzle you with possibilities ...

Most of us have one, and we love it. The little black dress - or even a midnight blue dress as some prefer - is practical and safe. One can not be wrong in a back dress. But sometimes we crave a little more glamour, don't we? Give a new life to your little black dress by adding a fabulous tagua necklace to it! It will give the zest that you are looking for. And if you love bold, like me, layer long and short necklaces to complete your vogue editorial look. You will look and feel like a queen!​

Classic Chic...

Suppose you are not the type of gal who embraces color. If you prefer the classic chic - like Olivia Pope (laughs) - don't worry. Don't think you are out of your niche or wasting your time. Vegetable ivory jewelry is available in many colors and designs, including, of course, ivory. Plenty of creations are in all sorts of colors, from bold to delicate. Something more delicate and monochrome is perfect for work, even in a formal environment. I am optimistic; you will find a design that is right for you, no matter your taste or occasion.

Resort Style...

Create a resort look to die for with a sensational necklace!! You will turn heads for sure. A beautiful swimsuit or bikini, a stylish pareo or caftan, and you are ready to make a splash. It is ALL up to you at the beach or pool, at work or at a party! And the best of all is that it does not cost a fortune, it will last forever, and they are one of a kind. You can find similar designs, but they
