I LOOVE your necklace!!!!!!
That's a toddler butt there in pink on my cat hair covered sofa, but have to enjoy the compliment because literally no one has ever noticed it before. I went through a phase of being really into award winning jewel cutters and buying loose precious and semi precious stones from them, to make into jewelry. Gold was expensive at the time so I took these stones to a local jeweler with a bunch of scrap gold about 9 years ago and had him melt it all down and make this really heavy duty sturdy necklace with all the stones bezel set so no sharp places. So I can wear it for days, weeks, even months without needing to change it because I don't worry about it breaking off and getting lost and with a rainbow of colors it matches everything. Gold never irritates my skin of course. I am just lazy about jewelry so something I put on and forget is really handy.
Thank you!
I'd wear them to work lol.
Basically with a Burberry tee/polo, cardigan, skirt. It comes off pretty casual I think. For more formal, change it to trousers and a blazer!
I had been wearing patterned skirts so the scarves were being neglected. But I have solid skirts now so it's easier to wear all the accessories without clashing.
This is my one and only enamel bangle, i opted for the signature piece - H-orange+coach+golden edge, and the belt in the same pattern, so they coordinate together, do not overload my look with logos and "hooray, i can buy luxury items" and go well with most of my clothes
apart from these i have a silver CDA, 2 silver rings for more casual looks and one KDE, so i have all needs and options covered without overdoingdear God, Santa, Fairy Godmother, and whoever else concerned, please keep me away from other temptations ....
Haha the balance of coordinated and luxe goods overload is hard. Sometimes i have to take something off before I leave.
But you have a great base to match your bags!
Thank you for the snap, it's so very beautiful!!!!! I have a few bespoke pieces as well
Tell me about the cat hair!! Second common spice after the sand ....
I don't have much jewelry, but I'm proud of this because I got to work with the designer to dream it up so it's unique!
Thank you
It's one of the rules/advice of Coco Chanel - before leaving the house take off what you put on last.
Your necklace is very pretty!!
And no worries about toddlers photobombing (kinda funny actually) and cat hair (didn't even notice) ! That just means your life is full of life and love. [emoji846]
Thank you

Surprisingly good advice, even to this day.
Out of these four, the MBMJ Totally turnlock Teri is the easiest one to use. Follow with the jumbo. If the jumbo isn't lamb, I'm sure it'll get more used. The Juane city and coral LD are quite hard to match my closet, too.
Me, too. I went back to find the Red photo and ended up reading the thread during the time. It's like a diary and a lively conversation. I also miss Jenny and Run. I think Liz is probably busy with her new house.
Thanks for reminding me, this bracelet my Son gifted me for my birthday in Oct, he got it with his pocket money, picked all by himself reasoning his choice - Mum's got so many and so different pieces, this multi colour bracelet should match and go well with all she has!

I was thinking about Run, Jenny , Cupcake, Lou , and all the others who Used to be in this. Miss them all! We have had such wonderful people in this thread then and now. Even when I don't really need to shop my closet I can't leave because I would miss it.
