There is nothing I love more than adding a pop of color to an outfit. I also happen to be a big fan of turquoise stones. Unfortunately turquoise can be a bit expensive so let’s discuss a great alternative that is much more affordable – howlite!
Howlite is a white stone that can be dyed to resemble turquoise. Trust me – you won’t notice the difference!
If you are buying turquoise stones make sure to get a certificate of authentication if possible. Happy Friday!

Aww thanks so much Amy!!! Your photos always inspire me as well! xoxo yael
Howlite is such a perfect dupe for turquoise, without authenticity certificates I would never know the difference! Although really, howlite can look so good that it doesn’t even matter. This necklace is just fabulous and it absolutely pops against your white dress.

Hi Cee!
I totally agree about not even knowing the difference. Howlite is so pretty! Glad you love this necklace. I love wearing it when I’m wearing white for the exact reason that you mentioned – because it pops!! xoxo yael
