Finding a necklace that looks like an enchanted talisman is one of my favorite things.
I love leaving my apartment every morning wearing something that feels magical around my neck. On a daily basis, I pretty much want to feel like an elfin warrioress when I’m out in the world, without going full-on cosplay. (As fun as that would be, it wouldn’t exactly be a practical way to live, and to go to work every day, you know?) So I like to work in little elements of my elfin warriors fantasy to my everyday outfits, and a great unique necklace is a perfect way to do it.
The more a necklace looks like something out of The Lord of the Rings, the better.
There are so many talented jewelry makers out there right now who are using interesting, natural materials in their designs, and I can’t get enough. We’re talking quartz jewelry, pyrite jewelry, amethyst jewelry… I could go on. These kinds of materials have an ancient, other-worldly quality to them that simply makes them look and feel like an enchanted relic. Could anything be better for a girl with a desire to feel like an elfin warrioress every day?
A big piece of the Moda Misfit approach to style is all about finding things that make you feel powerful and self-assured.
And I personally find that when I wear a unique statement necklace made of natural stones and earthy materials, I automatically feel slightly more powerful. Like I’ve donned a piece of protective armor that asserts who I am to everyone around me even on my most insecure days. It may just be a necklace, but there’s some real power in that feeling!
If you ever find something that makes you feel that kind of power and self-confidence, whether it’s a necklace or not, embrace that feeling.
That kind of feeling is valuable and we as women need to embrace every form of power that we can summon, big or small. And I think a necklace that features raw, natural materials has a particular way of activating a sense of power. Maybe there’s something about the fact that these minerals and stones have been around for millennia, and that perhaps their primal, unpolished look makes us feel connected to something wild and free. Something ancient and unbound to modern society, and therefore unoppressive.
So allow me to show you some necklaces I’ve gathered here that I believe possess that kind of power. Whether you share my elfin warrioress fantasy or not, these necklaces are great for any girl who wants to tap into this strong, natural jewelry trend being embraced by so many women out there.
Without further ado, it’s time to select your armor.

Just want to give a special shout-out here - If you just close your eyes and pick something at random on DyNamo’s Etsy shop, you will end up finding something that makes you feel like a powerful enchantress. I am CRAZY about this brand (I own two of their necklaces and I wear them way too often), and they’re also totally lovely on Instagram too! Definitely #onetofollow. :-)
One of the problems with blogging I’m quickly discovering is that I’m basically online shopping all the time, and therefore constantly finding things I want to buy. I’ll admit this right here: I found these while searching for necklaces to feature in this post, and now I think I might have to buy one for myself.
I’ll leave you with a circle-back to the sentiment I touched on earlier: if something makes you feel powerful, even if it’s a necklace, embrace that feeling and don’t let anyone minimize it as “materialistic” or “silly girl stuff”.
There’s a reason why talismans have been used by humans throughout the ages as anything from spiritual totems, to tools of self expression, to devices for storytelling; there’s power in jewelry, and by extension, in style overall. Whether that power comes in the form of self confidence, or if it fuels an elfin warrioress fantasy like it does for me, anything that can be used to express yourself is valuable.
