Pretty in Pink!

As we recognize breast cancer awareness month - we have Shoes on Sale to benefit breast cancer research and education, along with the shoe of the day and many styles at qvc.com - I thought it would be fun to think pink when it comes to gemstones! Pink tends to be a rare color in the gem world, and so is often quite pricey. But we have more pink gems at QVC than ever before, and it is thanks to the exotic gems we now have in our assortment. One pale lovely pink gem is morganite. It is part of the beryl family that gives us emeralds and aquamarine, and is a soft delicate shade of pink. Tourmaline comes in many colors and pink tourmaline is a more intense shade of pink if you like it brighter. You can also go towards more affordable gems and stay in pink, with rhodonite, pink mother of pearl , and rose quartz. Most importantly this month is one where we encourage all our friends and family members to have yearly mammograms and do monthly self breast exams. Every month is one to think pink!
