Code Red
In need of a little TLC? July is for protection, prosperity, love, and strength. Ruby's bright red tones are known for vitality and vibrancy, a meaningful gemstone also said to ignite passion in relationships (just in case you need to turn up the heat from Netflix and chill). We think it’s safe to say we heart this birthstone.

What are July's Other Birthstones?
As well as ruby, July babies can layer up with carnelian and onyx for a powerful punch. We spoke about our love for orange jewellery here – tap into this trend with a carnelian gemstone as your alternative birthstone for July. It’s a translucent reddish-brown variety of chalcedony, ranging from pale orange to deep red, that’s believed to promote courage, confidence, and creativity. Moreover, it acts as the ultimate motivator. Where can we sign up?
Black onyx is another gem associated with July. This protection stone is believed to provide strength, and grounding. If you’re in need of some self-control (hello, us wanting new jewellery always) then this might just be your ticket.

Line Up Leos
JULY 23 - AUGUST 22
Watch out for the mane event, because with a lion as their symbol you know Leos like to be in the spotlight. The social butterflies you always knew you needed, they feel naked without their ring stacks. If they leave the house without their statement pieces their day might just be ruined.
