    We don’t often see you with your hair pulled back. It looks really nice like that!

    Those are such wonderful pieces. Your mom has great taste.

    I especially love the piece in the first picture. It would be great with jeans and a white scoop neck tee!

    Eurochic,
    You’re right. I tend to wear the first one with scoop necks and the second one with vee-necks for obvious reasons — the way they hang …

    Wow, your collection is beautiful. Such a “personality piece”. They really compliment the outfits you choose to wear them with. Glad you showed a close up of the pieces, helps to picture what they actually look like.
