Trendy Tuesday {Sharing My Fav Bold Necklaces}

Accessories.

This year I'm loving how "in" accessories are...the more the better. Whether it be feathers {in your hair or as earrings}, colorful handbags, or big, chunky necklaces - they are definitely statement pieces and can instantly brighten up a wardrobe.

My personal favorite right now are statement necklaces.


            




{the Stella & Dot necklace a lot of celebs have been seen wearing}



You can wear them with a casual top to make it a little more formal, or you can pair it with a dressy tank top and skirt to add some personality to the outfit. They are so easy and that is right up my alley.

I've found so many chunky necklaces that can have a hefty pricetag {hello Anthro}, but I've also found some major steals that are definitely worth sharing.

I've picked my top 5 necklaces in my collection to share with you guys and where you can find them.




1. Francesca's Collection- around $24.00.
This silver necklace goes with so many outfits. I wear it with striped shirts a lot to dress them up.

2. Francesca's Collection- $22.00-$24.00
Francesca's is one of my favorite stores to buy jewelry. Everything is afforable and they always have a huge collection. A bonus? You can order them online on their website if you don't have a store near you.

This white necklace is one of my favorites. It's a different shape/design and is different than your average chunky necklace. I love white in the summer and you can wear this with any color and it will stand out!

3. Forever 21- $13.00
A turquoise necklace is a must have in my closet.
This pic was taken with my iPhone so you can't see the color real well, but I'm wearing it in the picture on my right sidebar -->.
Perfect to wear with plain black and white outfits.

4. Charming Charlie's- $16.00
Charming Charlie's is a HUGE store of just accesories-all jewelry, shoes, handbags, headbands, etc. The store is even sectioned off by color to make it easier to find what you're looking for...amazing I'd say.

This twisted multi color necklace couldn't be more versatile...it goes with brown, black, silver, and gold pieces. I wore this at our wedding rehearsal dinner so it holds a special place in my heart :)

5. Forever 21- $11.00
I bought this necklace over the weekend {mentioned yesterday}. I bought it to go with the lace dress and it adds so much personality to an otherwise somewhat plain dress. It will look great with blazers, and that makes me oh-so happy, because I just love my blazers. I can't wait to wear it!


There are other places you can find bold necklaces too, like H&M and Express, but these are just some of my favorites I've found.

Which necklace is your favorite?
Which would you wear the most?
If you have a favorite accesory, what is it?!


LAST BUT NOT LEAST...

Please just look at this picture Billy found on his phone of our precious little furchild the day we brought him home.


Makes my heart melt...

That little duck {his fav toy from his auntie Linds} was seriously almost his size, minus all his fur. He literally HOPPED for the first 2 weeks we had him..he didn't walk or run. haha
He was precious.
Ok, still is.
Momma's boy for SURE.


Happy Tuesday!

xo.

  17. You've got an eye. I love your necklace collection. I have the least amount of patience for large amounts of accessories in stores, but if you had told me those has each cost $50+ I wouldn't have doubted you for a second. Charming Charlie's is the most overwhelming place in the whole world.
