Dear friends,
2020 has required some serious toughening up. It has been battle after battle, with so many people fighting for their health, livelihoods, and beliefs. Every warrior needs her armor, and for us that armor is jewelry. While, like fashion, all jewelry can serve as psychic armor, for this edition we're going with pieces that take the idea a little more literally. Fend off all attacks the Icon Style way with this group that includes everything from breastplates, to vambraces to amulets.
For brunch today we suggest something rich in fortifying vitamins and antioxidants. Now- as they say, when the going gets tough, the tough get going, so let's go go go!
