Statement Necklaces

Haaaaaappy Saturday world! I hope you all had a beautiful week of work, vacation or relaxing ..whatever may have been your life for the past 6 days. I have spent this past week debating on what fashion topic I wanted to focus on for this post. I was torn between rings or necklaces. I LOOOOVE both, but chose to highlight STATEMENT neck candy NECKLACES for today. You can probably guess there WILL BE a statement ring post in the near future.

I'm at my happy place this evening, Lotus, surrounded by at least 1,000 800 of the most beautiful necklaces you will ever see. Turquoise, mandarin orange, neutral, sequin, neon pink, floral, distressed stones ..I think you know where I'm going with this. HOLY SHIPMENT that came in this week. It's easy to have inspiration for this post while staring at all of the neck candy. It's always easy to go broke .. so I'll just stick to this post instead of trying on everything in the store.

When it comes to jewels, my motto is the "bigger the better." ESPECIALLY when it comes to necklaces. I can take a tee shirt and throw on a over sized stone necklace ...BAM dressing up a tee. SIMPLE. Thanks for the inspiration, Nicole Richie. Take a maxi dress, pull your hair into a top knot then add a bubble necklace .. or two. Remember that article from my last post? "The 26 Fashion Rules you Should Break Immediately." I already knew layering was in, but I also learned layering different prints & patterns with jewelry was OKAY too. SCORE! Pile those jewels on and ROCK IT. People will take notice of your outfit ..and YOU. If you don't yet have a STATEMENT necklace, let me help you find one! Below are a few of my favorites from my personal collection.
