Lunatic's late addition to charms. 7 letters.
Straight definition = charms
Wordplay:
The poser is telling us that the letters in the word "late" are mixed up (lunatic)
with a word meaning addition.
addition = sum
The letters in sum and late are used to form an anagram AMULETS which are charms.
AMULETS
