I love vintage pieces, they are so unique and alot of fun to wear. To me when i want to wear vintage there are no rules, any piece can go with casual or dress, just have fun and enjoy. Vintage are the pieces that are carried down along with the history and stories that make each piece unique….
Kathy says:
Those in the pop of color group are what I am looking for for spring.
Susan Lockwood says:

What a fabulous beautiful idea, colorful and functional too. Great job!
novokate says:
What a pleasure to see beautiful and creative pieces that are affordable. I am so tired of seeing lovely jewelry and finding that the price is “only $2,500”. That is so unrealistic for me and 90% of the population. The offerings so far on faboverfifty have not only been stylish but they have been within my budget. Even the magazines geared towards teens such as Allure have items that are way beyond budget. Also, to my dismay most of the jewelry and other items in Ophra’s favorite things are not within my means. So congrats to faboverfifty for staying real.
Jack Palmer says:
Thank you for the giveaway these are beautiful and unique.

I like most of these necklaces. Plus it is nice to see that the selection really does include items that will fit into any budget. I hate it when you read an article that show a luxury item for $1000 and a “affordable” version of the item for $400.

I am really trying to wear more jewelry this spring and accessorize a bit more, I am typical quite “plain” in the accessories department – this jewelry is perfect!
Deb Philippon says:
Oh, they are simply gorgeous. The colours are lovely in the blue-green necklace, and the short and chunky section has beautiful styles in my favorite type of necklace.
Anne says:
I really like the Pop of Color and Tribal Twist necklaces … but it gets sooo hot and humid here in the summer that I cannot imagine wearing one more layer of anything! And I find necklaces catch on the fine wavy hairs at the back of my neck and that’s painful! So necklaces are wintery decoration for me, with turtleneck or high collar underneath.
Eric says:
My wife would love the House of Harlow one!
Doris says:
I fell in love with the bright and acrylic beaded necklace!
Kimberly Wright says:
Oh georgous, the entire collection is beautiful

I like the piece from Atlantis Dry Goods more than the featured necklaces, though the green beaded one is nice for that pop of color.
Maureen O'Neal says:
I love them all , but the blue green one and the bright orange ones are lovely with their BRIGHT colors, and brass!
vclark500 says:
I think all the pieces are gorgeous…When I like something I wear it ALL the time and tell everyone where it came from.
velder dixon says:
nice to wear -casual or dressy(anne klein horoscope necklace)
thereislightonthehorizon says:
I love the retro Anne Klein Horoscope necklace. It would look so good with a simple tee and jeans (my basic wardrobe) and have others “looking” to find their own horoscope symbol 🙂
Carol says:
Love the Anne Klein necklace prize. I have another necklace by her with a similar coin motif that I don’t wear often enough. It’s at least 24″ long – and would look Fab worn together with this one!
