3. JazJewelz Abalone and Brass Necklace, $27
“Easily create a complete outfit when you pair the heart dress with a serious statement necklace. Jazjewlz repurposed materials to create this stand-out (and very affordable) piece. Also love their Blue Tagua Nut Necklace.”

—————————————————————————————————–
7. Helene Berman Faux Fur Collar $46
“A cool addition to a fitted sweater, a sheath dress or a narrow coat. Love the great price and the fact that its faux! Found it on The Outnet, one of the designer discount sites I check every day.”

“Subtle ‘bling’ you can wear with a cashmere sweater and pants, jeans and a tee-shirt our any winter coat.”
—————————————————————————————————–
14. Ann Taylor Golden Lace Long Necklace with Chains, $98
“This Gatsbyish necklace has the most magnificent 1920s feel. It’s capable of taking your favorite jeans, blouse and heels to an even more fabulous place. Add it to any holiday dress and use the 2″ extender, because some pieces just look sexier and richer when you leave them long.”
—————————————————————————————————–

I want to show my appreciation to the writer for rescuing me from this setting. After scouting throughout the online world and obtaining suggestions that were not helpful, I was thinking my entire life was gone. Being alive minus the strategies to the difficulties you’ve resolved all through your entire review is a crucial case, as well as those which could have adversely affected my career if I hadn’t noticed your site. Your main mastery and kindness in dealing with a lot of things was very helpful. I don’t know what I would’ve done if I had not discovered such a solution like this. I’m able to at this time look forward to my future. Thank you very much for your impressive and amazing guide. I won’t hesitate to suggest the website to any person who should receive guide on this problem.
Muscular contractions says:
A lot of thanks for all your valuable efforts on this web page. My mum really loves doing investigations and it’s easy to see why.

Enjoy the remaining portion of the new year. You are doing a really good job.

nascarblue3 says:
I haved lived by the ocean since I was a little one, so I have alot of respect & years collecting shells, unique rocks, etc. To me this necklace is very unique, it shows the designer loves the oceans, rivers, etc, and most importantly what the waters create on the ocean and river floors, beauty, to me she borrowed from the ocean floor and created this necklace knowing the history that goes back millions of years, she, in my opinion has a very unique eye for what the ocean floor has to offer, I tryed a couple of times to create a pair of earrings from the shell of oysters, it is not as easy as it may seem, so kudos to you Lilah. I lost both of my parents, my dads eyes were light blue and thankfully I inhernated his eyes, he was and still is my heart, I think in part that is why my love of the ocean and this necklace remind me of my dad, I want to thank you for a rare chance to win this very unique necklace that already has memories for me, happy holidays to you and your family.

I love #1 the brass sea necklace. I ahve just the outfit to show it off well. The necklace with the 20’s vibe (14) is also awesome but I’m pretty short so I might not be able to carry that one off.

The Audrey necklace caught my eye immediately. I collect vintage jet jewelry and, while I know this is probably not jet but glass, I still love the look of it. I also love anything by Anthropologie. They just know how to make great clothes that don’t break the bank. So many choices, so little chance of winning, but it sure would make my day if I did win!

Statement necklaces are the best! Really make an outfit. Craft marketplace etsy.com also has lots of great choices.
olga martin says:
I would definately buy the dress or the necklace in blue as they are my style. I have to say that I never buy much for myself this time of the year and wait until March for my birthday- just seems more personal and we have seriously cut down on the waste of money that needless gift giving ends up being.
Thanks so much.

I love to shop on line museums for unique and comfortably priced gifts. I love the necklaces here!
