| Sweater | Target Jeans | AG Necklace | Michael Michaud |
When I saw this necklace it was love at first site. I love hydrangeas, and so the opportunity to have a hydrangea necklace, cast in bronze, was too good to pass up. This necklace is really a work of art, and I am excited to pair it with everything, from plain sweaters, to embellished tops (sparkle on sparkle). In this instance, I clearly went with a subdued outfit, in order to highlight the necklace in all of its glory.
I threw on a wool jacket - a clearance Elizabeth & James, via the Real Real, find - to combat a chilly day. I love the use of leather accents in this jacket, but it is a little bit big. I really need to learn to sew, at least to the point where I can do basic things, like hem my own pants, or maybe learn to take in the sides of jackets. That last one might actually be pretty difficult to do if there is a lining, etc., but it just seems like more and more, having sewing skills would be so useful. I am seriously considering making it a 2017 personal challenge. My 2016 challenge was to start a blog, and I bit the bullet and did that, so I'm feeling like I could probably start to tackle sewing too. It also makes me think back to Home Ec in junior high, which I didn't have to take because I was in band ( cool, I know). Did anyone actually learn to sew in Home Ec - was that my missed opportunity?!
