Statement Piece

Outfit Details:

necklace: Charming Charlie

top: Loft

pants: H&M

shoes: ShoeMint

I got this necklace for a wedding styled shoot last year (images from that shoot will be up on the blog soon). I decided it was such an amazing piece I had to keep it, not that I needed any more necklaces. I had been saving it for a great outfit to really glam it up, but finally I decided upon going with a simple outfit and letting the necklace be the statement piece. It is a great way to get more use out of your more glamorous jewelry without over doing it. I paired it with a gray v-neck tee and some skinnies. I kept all the colors solid so that it wouldn't be to much for the eyes to handle (even though I do like doing that once in a while).
