Neck Envy


It's funny because I never used to wear necklaces. But not that my hair is shorter I opt to wear bold necklaces in the place of earrings. I have had a new found love for statement necklaces over the past six months. The collection just keeps growing and growing. The above necklace I just got a few days ago at Aldo Shoes. When I saw it I almost died. I had to have it. A white necklace has been on my wish list for the longest and at $25 bucks...it was a fashion STEELE and totally worth it!
Check out more of my statement necklaces below.
I get tons of compliments anytime I wear this Modern Tibet necklace I picked up at the Christmas Market at Union Square in December. I think it cost $35..I can't remember.

Picked this necklace up recently during the Thrift and the City shopping tour for $8 fashion STEELE! See it worn HERE!

I swapped this necklace at my Shop and Swap event. It even helped me win best dressed at a fashion show HERE and I won a DKNY watch! 

Picked up this lovely Mango necklace at the Mango & Marie Claire Night of Style.
See it worn with my Mango maxi skirt HERE!

I love wearing this with a more sophisticated look. I got this necklace at Housing Works Thrift Shop for $12..fashion STEELE! See it worn HERE!!!!

This is the DIY statment necklace I made with items from Michaels. Love it!

I also got this lovely capsule Diesel Necklace from Housing Works Thrift Shop.

Got this stunning necklace at the store in the W Hotel at Fashion Night at the W Hotel.
 This was the most expensive necklace. I think it cost $50 and it was on sale.

I also got this necklace for $5 during the Thrift and the City shopping tour.

This is one of my favorite rocker chic necklaces that I got from Forever 21 a few years ago.

There is something about this black stone that I love. It makes any outfit instantly glam. This was only $1 at Goodwill.

So are you all into statment necklaces and whats your favorite of mine??
 It's enough to give a girl neck envy right lol.

  6. It's amazing how bold statement pieces like these can completely change your look. You could wear a different one each day with a different top and completely change the look. I love looking at all of them -totally inspiring.
