Good Luck Jewelry For Friday the 13th - The Stir (blog)

jewelryMake sure you dodge black cats, look out for ladders, and don't break any mirrors -- today is Friday the 13th!

Even if you're not haunted by the superstition that comes one to three times a year, you might want to be prepared -- just in case. But fashionably, of course.

From top left, clockwise:

Dreamcatcher earrings: In Native American culture, dreamcatchers are supposed to catch the bad dreams of those who wear the tear-shaped objects.

Four-leaf clover: Find a four-leaf clover in a sea of clovers and you'll have good luck. Or wear it in a cute necklace.

Coin earrings: See a penny, pick it up, all day long you'll have good luck.

Wishbone necklace: We used to fight over the wishbone at the dinner table when I was a kid -- not exactly the sexiest tradition. But this necklace takes the carcass and makes it classy.

Rainbow bracelet: If you spot a rainbow in the sky, it's supposed to bring good luck.

Horsehoe necklace: Blacksmithing used to be considered a lucky trade, so since horseshoes were made by blacksmiths, people hung them on the wall for good luck.

Ladybug charm: A ladybug landing on you is good luck, but don't flick it off ... that'll bring bad luck.

Are you taking any precautions today? Have any good luck jewelry?
