Karma Mantra: Lotus Seed Necklace

Hi Elegant Readers,

Pray you are having an awesome Labor Day holiday weekend. I have been battling a summer cold, however I am feeling better, thank the Lord. Plenty of tea and cough syrup!

I am super excited to tell you about the Lotus Seed Mala that I was gifted by Romell, founder and designer of Karma Mantra.

I was contacted by Romell, who asked me if I would like to try a piece of jewelry from his website, Karma Mantra. I had not heard of Karma Mantra before, so I was intrigued and went exploring on the website.

The design variations and styles of jewelry styles are available for both women and men.

I always enjoy reading the about page to know the story behind the designs.

Here’s an excerpt from the Karma Mantra About Page:

“Karma Mantra’s entire line is a collection of hand-selected gems acquired from designer Romell Bhaala’s global journeys. Additionally, Romell uses the experiences of his travels to inspire new one-of-a-kind creations. Each item is the culmination of a powerful past shaping a transcendent future.”

It was extremely hard to select a piece that I liked, so I suggested a few of my favorites and was ready to be surprised.

My package came in the mail and when I opened the envelope, this is what was inside.
A beautiful Lotus Seed Mala and a sweet card inside that said, “JT, hope this was everything you expected and more! Peace & Love, Alexa”

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

The Lotus Seed Necklace Mala retails for $24.99 on Karma Mantra’s website.

Lotus Seed Mala Styled by JTwisdom

I respect that some use the Lotus Seed Mala for meditation, kirtan or Japa, however I am wearing the Mala as a necklace styled with fashion apparel.

In the picture the necklace is styled with a very bright and bold dress that I constantly get compliments on. In the photo below, the Mala is wrapped twice around the neck in a short and long style.

I wanted to show that the necklace is very long and can be worn many different ways, the style is up to you. I layered the Mala with my jasper heart leather cord necklace for dimensional effect.

The beads are soft and really accentuated my embroidered blouse.

The beads flow so well and feel very secure. When I wore this blouse, the Lotus Seed Mala did not feel weighty at all. It was great.

Another way I styled the necklace was with a casual blue striped blouse. The look was so relaxing and cool. The shape of the beads remind me of large freshwater pearls. I keep talking about the shape because the beads are so comfortable.
