..Maintenance of Your Gypsy Jewels..

Gypsy Gems,

I just wanted to give you ladies some tips on how to love and care for your beautiful gypsy jewels. 
  • Don't spray perfume when wearing your earrings or any other jewellery for that matter. The alcohol in the perfume with tarnish the metal clasping.
  • If you spill liquid or get the feathers dirty, don't fret. Run the earring under cold drizzling water and set to dry. (Do not play/move the feathers when wet.)
  • It is best to hang your jewels when you are not wearing them to maintain their natural shape.
  • Try not to get any hair product or hairspray on your earrings. Do your hair and make-up and then put on your earring.
  • Having any trouble with earrings? (Broken clasp, etc?) Email me at gypsykarmafashion@gmail.com and let's talk about how we can get it fixed for you :)

Until Next Time,


Much Love.

<3 Your GypsyQueen

..Apologies & RAK #2..

Gypsy Gems,


My sincere apologies for leaving you all hanging for so long. There hasn't been much activity on the GPK because I have been a busy Gypsy Queen. I am making some fantastic life changes - that I am so excited to share with you. They are kind of in the works, so I will give you all a full update when they are set in stone. But I will tell you this - I am moving, making a career change and vow to devote more of my time to the GKP.


Truro, Ottawa, Whistler and Panama - your gypsy jewels are in the works. I have not forgot about my precious gypsy gems. Just bare with me during this hectic time.


Okay - on to some kindness ideas. I am going to offer you the second..


Random Act of Kindness Inspiration (#2) - Help Someone for Free 

It is easy to put time and effort into tasks if we're doing them ourselves or getting paid for them. But what about offering your services for free? Why not do a job like mowing the lawn, helping someone move or babysit and surprise him or her by not charging a fee.

Do you have a friend, acquittance or family member that is struggling financially? Offer them your services for free - there are a million ways you can help. Do you have a gift for fixing cars, are you an artist, are you really handy when it comes to organizing? Find something you are good at and make a commitment to use your talent to help someone. 

Does this speak to you? If so, what are you waiting for?

Get Inspired and Spread the Love.

Until Next Time,

Much Love.

<3 Your Gypsy Queen

..Youlookfiiine..

Gypsy Gems,

A few months ago I had an lovely gifting experience with Danna, a fashion blogger. Read about it here. Well not only did she wear the gem on New Year's Eve - starting the year off right (Can't I toot my own horn a bit?), but she also dedicated a post to me. How rad is that?

Extra, extra... read all about it at youlookfiiine.com

Thanks Danna - you're a gem. xo

Until Next Time,

Much Love.

<3 Your GypsyQueen

..Random Acts (RAK #1)..

Gypsy Gems,


For those of you just tuning in, this blog revolves around the fact that I practice good karma and spread some of my gypsy love by gifting my handmade, one-of-a-kind earrings (and charms) to those I meet, have met and/or love. My gifting is sporadic and random. I gift to waiters at restaurants, to peers at music shows, approach strangers in airports, and reach out to old childhood friends to provide them with a little something in hopes that it will create a "moment" for them.


I believe that random acts of kindness should not be dying deed. I am trying to do my part to sustain the endangered species of selfless acts. As it turns out there is an amazing organization that is doing just the same. The Random Acts of Kindness Foundation inspires people to practice kindness and pass it on to others. Their website has this incredible resource that allows the sharing of Kindness Ideas to ignite an urge to participate in the movement.


I have decided to spread their word in hopes of inspiring YOU to participate. I will post ideas of random acts of kindness (RAK) and if one speaks to you - I challenge you to complete the task. I would LOVE to hear about your triumph. Email me: gypsykarmafashion@gmail.com.


RAK Inspiration # 1 - Give Care packs to the Homeless


There are so many everyday necessities and toiletries that we take for granted - toothbrushes, toothpaste, soap, shampoo, deodorant, snacks, gloves, socks, a warm blanket, etc.


Imagine how you would feel if you didn't have access to these small things. Well many people in our community can't afford these simple things. By donating even the smallest items to those who don't have them, you'll be providing someone with a greater sense of self worth.




Does this speak to you? If so, what are you waiting for? 

Get Inspired and Spread the Love. 

Much Love.


Until Next Time,


<3 Your GypsyQueen
