Make a Statement



 When Jen and Tiffany announced their Style Challenge, I wondered what piece of statement jewelry I would choose to feature in my entry.  I chose this Kalos necklace, mostly because when I initially bought it, I wasn't sure what I could pair it with.


I wanted the necklace to be out-standing, and not be hindered by any patterns or prints.  But I also wanted to choose an item of clothing that would creatively "frame" the necklace.

Enter this Jenny Han cape sweater/poncho.  Without the necklace, this sweater is a fantastic stand-alone piece. With the necklace, it adds a vintage character. 

This also was a lesson for me to pair long statement necklaces with turtleneck tops more often! 


A cute pair of nude heels makes any outfit fun and fab!


Poncho: Jenny Han; Pants: H&M; Heels: Aldo; Necklace: Kalos; Watch, bracelet, earrings: The Usual Suspects


Happy Friday and wish me luck in the Style Challenge!  


And yes, you still have time to enter my Kalos feather earrings giveaway!

  3. I like the ankle length pants. I wanted to pull off these kind of pants but by the time I got a pair, it was too cold to wear them.

  6. Great styling on this one! I really like the comfiness of the poncho against the delicate beauty of the necklace.
