Retired

Necklaces - Banana Republic
Decorative Glass Platter - Handmade by my talented sister-in-law, Tama

My hubby has politely requested that I retire my Banana Republic chandelier necklaces (at least for the short-term).  I can't help that it's my *perfect* necklace and it has been beyond versatile.  So long, necklaces...

'til next week!!!!  =) 

This lovely glass platter was made by my sister-in-law Tama.  Among the beautiful oil paintings, furniture and decorative items in our house - this platter is one of my absolute favorite pieces!

  3. Um I love those. I believe in being allowed to have a few staples that you can wear over and over again.

  9. As the hubby and photog, I'll validate the comments by saying they're great necklaces but I'd prefer to see something fresh for the next series of outfits. To that end, I've challenged Anh to find a cool alternative for under $50. If she finds it, I'll buy it. Post a link here if you see something cool...

  12. Anh, I love your blog! I must say though, lately you have been showing more weekend wear then 9to5 chic office wear. Don't get me wrong, I love seeing your weekend outfits but find your office wear more useful since I also work in an office. Please show us more office wear posts. Thanks soo much, love your style!

  17. I have the necklace in white and it has been sitting in a box since the day I bought it. I simply did not know how to wear it. But thanks to your blog I am inspired. I think I will try incorporating it in to my wardrobe. Thanks for the inspiration!!!!!

  18. Haha!! Your husband was so funny! I guess he was tired of seeing them on you.

    Saw that same necklaces from BR, but never thought of picking them up. Now that i see how nice they look on you, i wish i had gotten at least one.
