A while ago, the most stylish and instructive blogger, Sal, sent me a beautiful care package. Among other fantastic offerings, she managed to send me one of my fave necklace/earring sets ever:
What you can't tell from the photo (which really doesn't do it justice) is that the silver pendant sits perfectly below my collar bone and the clasp - the amazing clasp - is magnetic! I struggle with heavy necklaces because my shoulders tend to respond by seizing up and giving me neck pain. But this one is light as a feather, and yet very "there". I rarely wear earrings because I find them busy next to my small face and glasses. These, however, are just right. Not overwhelming but nicely noticeable.
Of course, it doesn't surprise me that Sal owned these beautiful items. But that she would have intuited how well they'd work on me is further proof of her excellent stylist-abilities. And I am so grateful she sent them so that I can feel beautiful every time I put them on. Thank you Sal!
Christmas came early, this year.

Hey E: I agree. Promise there will be some clothing posts soon. Just have to get some time - and the photog, who's been kind of on his sickbed lately :-)
ReplyDeleteSal: Seriously, I love these pieces. I think of you each time I wear them!
Bel: They are understated but so suit my personality! (Not that I'm understated, particularly, but you know what I mean...)
Thank you Miss C!
Atelier: Aren't I?!
GJ: Glad to hear you are improving. I'm on the mend here too - feeling more like myself. And my husband has really turned the corner back on the road to wellness, thank goodness!
Skye: They're kismet, really!
Seeker: I will post photos soon, promise. And you take time to enjoy yourself outside the realm of the blogosphere. It's necessary!
