Pisces Applause and nods!

Pisces are the great believers. They have a strong belief in what's good, what's hopeful, and what's best. They are the kind of people who will help anyone, but they don't usually show the same fervor when it comes to helping themselves. They are intuitive and imaginative. They are a water sign, so they can come up with the most creative things on Earth, and then just flow on to the next thing without giving it a second thought.

My mother is a classic Pisces! She is creative, caring, hopeful, and extremely hard to peg. The water in her personality keeps her flowing this way and that. If she ever gets stuck in one place, she just makes up her mind and flows on to the next thing. Her flowing nature keeps her on a lifelong adventure, that others would find sometimes unsettling. At a moment's notice she is ready to travel, cater a fabulous dinner, nurse the elderly, give a severe tongue lashing, or say the most positive words of encouragement that would nurture generations.

Her ability to dream and to believe have allowed her children the opportunity to imagine themselves as limitless creatures in this universe! If you have had the pleasure of having a Pisces parent, you probably have had lobster dinners as a babe, and may have had the lights turned off a time or two. You may have had huge dreams set before you with the invitation to partake. You may have dreamed of what it would have been like to have the sound security that would come from a earthy parent like a Virgo. At the end of the day, my Pisces mother exposed me to a life that I would never ever trade for anyone's. Here is a presentation that my husband made for her about 6 years ago.




Here are some famous Pisces!


You can see the water all up and through in Queen Latifah. She is dressed as a beauty queen day, and a motorcycle thug the next... let's not forget about this great shot, which I love!

She's also very creative, in that she's a rapper, actress, singer, and business woman.


Of course, the water is evident with Liz Taylor too, just look at how many men she's married. She also has that spirit of lending to anyone in need. She once picked up Stephanie Mills off the side of the road, after she was beaten and kicked out the car by her husband Jeffrey Daniels, formerly of Shalimar.



Ms. Badu is another flowing Pisces. She's very creative, and you can never be sure what she will be bringing to us. Her three children by three fathers also signal her on to the next thing mentality.

Solange Knowles, she's zigging!

I know this blog is about being a Jewelry Rock star, but today I want to change focus a little bit from jewelry to a music rock star, Solange Knowles. I know some of you might not want to call her a star, but she definitely is. I've been keeping my eye on her lately. She has made a very creative album, and I love, love, love that I Decided music video. It's a zig in this zaggy world.

Here are some pics of her. I like her style, I've noticed that she uses clothing as her bling, and not necessarily jewelry and accessories











Now of course, Solange has a sassy flippant in your face side that people like to focus on. As seen in the recent run in with Fox News ( Like who doesn't have a run in with those Jerks) Plus everyone likes to point out that she's the anti-beyonce. As much as I love Beyonce, and I really, really do. I also have a growing respect for Solange. I like that she set the record straight on Fox too!









Sit down, Sit down, I know she was teenage bride and mother, but hey if Brit's sister and Sarah Palin's daughter are getting passes, Solange gets one too.

I wanted to do this post today to celebrate a girl who is fighting hard to be creative in her own right, and I'll bet a lot of us can relate to that. I certainly can You go Solo!
