Right now I'm loving the naturals, rock crystals, marble, wood, stones, malachite, both in accessorizing myself and my home. Upon flipping through the latest issue of Metropolitan Home I was delighted to see that Kelly Wearstler is also loving the naturals as she made apparent in the accessory selection of her Malibu beach house. Though I wasn't really a fan of the overall look and feel of this latest Wearstler endeavor (I know, a shock to myself as well) I was taken my the lovely tabletop objet d'art vignette she coordinated and displayed within the interior. Inspired by the glamorous yet raw aesthetic of the grouping, here are a few of my favorite rock crystal accessories good enough for both the wardrobe and the home. Rock on. – KL
